Small Tasks,
Big Moments.

A job without an owner is up for grabs, and anyone in the flock can choose “I’ll do it” to take it on. A grown-up can also put a job straight on someone’s list. The app never scolds: there is no “overdue” and no “you failed to”.

Set a chore to repeat, daily, weekly or on the days you choose, and it comes back on its own. A repeating chore is ticked off on the day it is for, in your household’s time zone. If a day is missed, that one quietly closes and the next takes its place, with no nagging.

Two homes each keep their own household, then link them. Sharing is chosen one event at a time: an event you mark as shared appears in the other home’s calendar, and nothing else does. Tasks, lists and Duck Bucks stay home. Documents, receipts and private notes are never shared across a link. Either home’s grown-ups can pause or end the link at any time.

No. A child gets a profile, their own duck and jobs to claim without a login or an email address. When they are older you can invite them to sign in, and their whole history of claimed chores comes with them.

Artwork, documents, receipts, photos and passwords. A photographed drawing is filed under the child who made it, on the day the photo was taken. A photographed page is straightened and cleaned up like a scan, and a receipt is read so every item on it is tracked. A password entry holds what it is for, the login address, the username and the password, and is searchable; a grown-up chooses which passwords the children can see, one at a time. Everything is encrypted on its way to us and while it sits with us, and saved passwords are encrypted again on top of that, with the key kept outside the database. The full picture is in the privacy policy at ducksinarow.app/privacy.

Grown-ups. Documents, receipts and member settings are for the adults in the household; a child or teen sees their own jobs, the calendar, the lists and the chat. An extended member such as a grandparent can be on the calendar without opening the family’s papers.

A grown-up can make a job worth one to ten Duck Bucks, and whoever finishes it collects them. They are spent in the duck builder on hats, glasses and the like; every colour is free. Duck Bucks are earned, never bought, and there is nothing to purchase anywhere a child can reach. If you like, a grown-up can turn on the Exchange and say what Duck Bucks are worth at home; the app keeps a note of what you agreed and never moves any money.

Your flock gets its own unique email address. Forward a school notice, an appointment reminder or a team schedule to it, and the dates and details are pulled out for a grown-up to approve and add to the family calendar. Anyone in the flock can forward to it; the address itself is what keeps it private.

In a Canadian region, with the database, sign-in and uploaded files hosted by Supabase. There are no advertisers and nothing is sold. You can delete your account from the menu and it happens straight away; a grown-up deletes a child’s. The privacy policy at ducksinarow.app/privacy says exactly what is collected and why, and hello@ducksinarow.app answers questions about it.

The help page has a knowledge base covering every part of the app, and a form where you can describe what happened and attach a screenshot. Or email hello@ducksinarow.app. Please do not include passwords or private family documents.
