Chore Management

Chores that fit your family.

Earned Screen Time

Their effort. Their rewards.

Kids can see their assigned chores, track earned minutes, and check their available screen-time balance.

When they're ready, they can redeem their minutes and see when their screen-time session will end.

Parent Approvals

Parents stay in control.

Review completed chores before awarding screen-time minutes. Approve or reject submissions directly from the parent area.

For chores requiring verification, children can submit a photo for parents to review.

Screen Time Management

Keep track of every minute.

Barnacle Bucks tracks redeemed screen-time sessions and notifies families when a session ends.

If a child stops screen time early, parents can review the session and restore unused minutes when available.
