Household Chores vs KidTask

Household Chores is an iOS app for families, kids, teens, and roommates sharing a home. A house can invite up to six members by email, with live shared task lists. Daily and weekly task groups reset automatically according to the house timezone. Completing tasks earns points, and weekly leaderboards and result announcements show rankings. Optional notifications tell the household when a chore is completed. Owners control who may add or rename tasks. The Free plan costs nothing and includes six members, daily and weekly groups, seven tasks per group, points, weekly leaderboard, and push notifications. Premium Monthly costs €1.99 a month and adds five groups, 12 tasks per group, editable group names and reset types, custom point values, monthly rankings, and six months of history. Premium Yearly costs €19.99 a year. One Premium subscriber unlocks premium features for the whole house.

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.
