Fami vs TimeTree

Fami combines shared family scheduling with chores, budgeting, meal planning, shopping lists, and saved places. Its calendar offers day, week, month, and agenda views, color-codes events by family member, and supports recurring events. Families can import an existing Google Calendar and export events to a device calendar. Chores can be assigned by person, day, or rotation; completed chores can earn rewards, and the site says allowance is credited automatically. The AI meal planner suggests meals based on household needs and can add planned meals to the shared shopping list. Kid Mode shows children their chores, rewards, and allowance balance without the household budget or family calendar. Fami is available on Android, iOS, and the web. The free plan includes a shared calendar, chores, shopping list, budget, and family places. Premium costs $4.99 a month or $44.99 a year; both paid plans add AI meal suggestions and advanced task tools, and the annual plan includes a 7-day free trial. Fami says it does not sell personal data, and users can request data deletion through the app.

TimeTree is a shared calendar app for coordinating schedules and plans with groups, available on Android, iOS, and the web. Its free plan includes calendar creation and sharing, multiple calendars, comments, photos, imports, and public calendars. Users can view several calendars together with filters or switch between them. External iOS or Android calendars can be displayed when synced with the device calendar, but those events are unavailable in the web version. Imported external events do not sync back from TimeTree, and TimeTree events cannot be exported to external calendars. Public calendar events appear on the web for anyone to view, with up to 20 public calendars per account. Premium costs $4.49 a month and adds an ad-free experience, file attachments, vertical event view, event priority, and dedicated support. Its one-month Premium trial is for first-time Premium users and converts to a paid subscription unless canceled at least 24 hours before it ends. Premium is optional per account, with no shared subscription plan, and is non-refundable, though it can be ended at any time.
