How to Create Your First Task

Create a task that family members can complete to earn points

Before you start

Make sure you've completed these first:

Tasks are the chores and activities your family members will complete. Each task has a point value to motivate completion.

Steps

  1. Go to Task Management — Navigate to Manage → Tasks from the menu

  2. Tap "New Task" — Click the + New Task button

  3. Enter task details:

    • Name: What's the task? (e.g., "Make bed", "Take out trash")
    • Points: How many points is it worth? Start with 5-10 for simple tasks
    • Category: Optional grouping (e.g., "Bedroom", "Kitchen")
  4. Set frequency — How often should this task be done?

    • Daily: Resets every day
    • Weekly: Can be done once per week
    • One-time: Doesn't repeat
  5. Tap "Create Task" — Your task is now ready to be assigned!

Tips

  • Start simple with 3-5 tasks, then add more as your family gets comfortable
  • Higher points = harder tasks (washing dishes might be 15 points, making bed might be 5)
  • Use categories to organize related tasks together

What's Next?

Now assign this task to family members so they can start earning points!
