In their own words
DooCoins
DooCoins is a family app that uses tasks, virtual DooCoins, and rewards to help parents teach responsibility, goal-setting, and habits. The parent app supports tasks, ToDoos, routines, allowances, request approval or decline, and balance and activity tracking. Children can view tasks, request completion, follow balances and savings goals, claim rewards, and review transaction history in the Kids app. Family+ lets parents share children with co-parents, grandparents, or caregivers. DooCoins are virtual currency inside the app, not cryptocurrency. The free plan costs nothing, works offline, stores data locally, requires no account, and includes unlimited children, tasks, and rewards plus the last 20 transactions per child. Family+ costs $2.99 a month and adds the Kids companion app, cloud sync, push notifications, family sharing, routines, ToDoos, weekly allowances, and unlimited history. The app runs on iOS and Android, has no ads or tracking, and offers support by email.
KidTask
KidTask helps families assign chores, track completion, and connect children’s work to points, pocket money, or rewards. Parents can set one-off tasks or schedule them daily, weekly, or monthly, then approve completion manually or automatically. Children sign in with a code rather than creating their own account, and can spend their balance in a rewards catalog. Parents may invite a co-parent and choose that person’s permissions. Badges measure a child’s progress against their own past, without leaderboards or sibling rankings. The wallet is virtual: parents settle amounts in real life, and KidTask does not handle bank accounts or cards. It runs on Android and the web, and supports English, Romanian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Italian, Polish, and Hungarian. The Free plan is free and covers one parent, one child, and one-off tasks. Family Plan is listed at €4.99 a year, billed yearly, with recurring tasks, co-parents, multiple kids, rewards, and push notifications; the pricing note also says paid from €4.99/mo (annual) and lists a 14-day trial.
