What FamilyHub does today

Calendar

• Day, week, month and agenda views, with search and filters by person, calendar and category.
• Repeating events (daily, weekdays, weekly, monthly, yearly) with “this event” or “all events” edits.
• Private events: full details for adults, “Busy” for children and shared screens.
• Every event shows which calendar it comes from; read-only calendars stay read-only.

Limits: Changing “this and following” repeats isn't available yet.

Calendar connections

• Calendar links (iCalendar/ICS), such as school or team calendars, refreshed automatically.
• Google Calendar, with read-only or read-and-write access you choose.
• A private FamilyHub calendar link you can add to Google Calendar or other apps, with rotate and revoke.

Limits: Google Calendar needs to be set up by whoever runs this FamilyHub. Outlook and iCloud work through their published calendar links. External calendars refresh on a schedule, not instantly.

Chores and routines

• One-off and repeating chores for one person, several people or anyone.
• Routines with ordered steps for mornings, after school or bedtime.
• Each person's progress for the day; children see only their own chores.

Stars and rewards

• Optional stars per chore and a reward list with costs.
• Children ask for a reward; an adult approves or declines it.
• Every change to a balance is recorded, including adult adjustments with a reason.

Lists

• Shopping and to-do lists plus your own lists, with quantities, notes and categories.
• Check off, reorder and add from any device or the wall display.

Meals, recipes and pantry

• A weekly meal plan with your household's meal times.
• A recipe library; send a recipe's ingredients to the shopping list after reviewing them.
• Pantry items by location, flags for low stock and dates you enter, and one-tap restock to the shopping list.

Home and notes

• A Home page you can customize: choose widgets, sizes and order, for the household or just for you.
• A shared notes board with checklists and pinned notes.

Wall display

• Pair a tablet, monitor or TV with a short code or QR code; each display has its own layout and privacy settings.
• Updates on its own when someone changes something elsewhere, and says when it's reconnecting.
• Large touch targets for checking off chores and list items; adult actions need the household PIN.
• Screensaver with family photos or a clock, and a sleep schedule.

Limits: A browser can't turn the screen off or wake a sleeping device; use the device's own settings for that.

Household and privacy

• Several households per person, with owner, admin, adult and child roles checked by the server.
• Invitation links for other adults, valid for 7 days and only for the invited email.
• Export everything as a file; deleted items can be restored until deleted permanently.

Limits: FamilyHub doesn't send emails or push notifications yet; reminders appear while FamilyHub is open.
