Family Chore App
Bothy is a family chore app built to get everyone, kids included, doing their chores without you asking twice. Add your chores to the list, set a schedule once, and attach a point value to each one.
From there Bothy takes over: reminders go out, points add up, and you’re no longer the one holding the whole schedule in your head.
No More Nagging
You shouldn’t have to be the one who remembers everything. Bothy sends reminders on whatever schedule you set, so “did you take out the trash” stops being something you have to say out loud every single week. Kids get a nudge on their own phone when a chore’s due, and another if it’s still sitting there later. You stay out of it until something actually needs your attention, like a chore that’s gone undone for days.
Fewer Arguments, Fairer Chores
Bothy tracks who did what over the week and shows it on a simple chart, so you can see at a glance who’s carrying the load. Say one kid handled most of the week’s chores and the other barely touched the list. That shows up in plain numbers, not vague feelings, so nobody can argue their way out of it. If one kid’s doing everything and the other’s coasting, you’ll know in five seconds instead of after a blowup at dinner. Rebalance the list and the argument settles itself.
Teach Kids the Value of Finishing the Job
Kids earn points as they check chores off, and you decide what those points are worth. Ten points per dollar of allowance. Fifty points toward a pizza night with friends. Or nothing more than watching the number climb, if that’s incentive enough. You set the whole system, and you can turn it off completely if points aren’t your family’s style.
Rotations
Chores don’t have to be stuck on one person forever. Set up a rotation, pick who’s in it, and let Bothy cycle through them on whatever schedule makes sense.
Kids handle trash duty every time? Add them. Whole family takes turns on dishes? Add everyone, and Bothy decides fairly who’s up tonight.
iPhone or Android, It Doesn’t Matter
Bothy runs on both, so nobody in the house gets left out over which phone they carry. Mom’s on iPhone, the oldest just inherited an Android hand-me-down from a cousin, it doesn’t matter. Everyone sees the same chore list, the same points, and the same schedule, no matter what’s in their pocket.
