Household chore app
A chore app people
actually want to use.
Brownie Points turns household tasks into something worth showing up for. Every chore has a point value. Every point can be spent on rewards your household decides for itself. No preset catalogs, no coins, no cartoon characters — just a clean system for getting things done and getting credit for it.
No credit card required. Free plan always available.
How it works
Post tasks. Earn points. Spend them.
Post tasks with point values
A Giver adds tasks to the household and sets what each one is worth. Take out the bins, scrub the bathroom, do a grocery run. They set the price. Bigger jobs get more points.
Complete tasks, earn points
An Earner picks a task, does it, and marks it done. Points land in their balance immediately. Optional photo proof keeps things honest when it matters.
Spend points on real rewards
Cash in points for whatever rewards are in the pool. No gift cards or menus — just open text rewards your household wrote in. Whatever has value to you.
Features
Everything a household needs
Tasks with point values
Every task is worth something. You decide how much — a quick wipe-down is not the same as scrubbing the bathroom. Bigger effort, bigger points. It is a simple mechanic that maps to how work actually feels.
Rewards you write in yourself
No preset catalogs, no gift card menus. Rewards are open text: whatever your household actually values. "You pick dinner", "sleep in Saturday", "I handle school pickup all week". Write it in, it is now a reward.
A shared board everyone sees
All tasks, all members, one board. Nobody can claim they didn't know what needed doing. The list is there, visible to everyone in the household.
Recurring tasks that reset themselves
Weekly bins, daily dishes, monthly deep clean. Mark a task recurring and it comes back automatically after completion. Nobody has to remember to put it back on the list.
Photo proof when it matters
"Done" and actually done are not always the same. Turn on photo proof for tasks where completion needs to be verified. Complete the task, submit a photo, get the points.
Fairness Dashboard
Task counts, point balances, and contribution history across the whole household. Not as a weapon — just so everyone is working from the same information.
Streaks and badges
Do tasks consistently and build a streak. Hit milestones and earn badges. Light gamification that actually nudges behaviour without being annoying about it.
Kiosk mode
Put a shared screen in the kitchen. Anyone can tap their name, see their tasks, and mark things done without needing to log in. No app required on their end.
AI suggestions
Not sure what tasks or rewards to add? Ask for suggestions based on your household type. A starting point, not a prescription.
Who it's for
Any household. Any dynamic.
Couples
Stop keeping score in your head. Let the app track it so you can focus on the parts of the relationship that matter.
Roommates
Clear tasks, visible effort, no passive-aggression. Everyone sees the same board.
Families
Real stakes and real rewards for teens and adults alike. No parent/child framing.
Co-living
Dorms, co-ops, boarding houses. The Flexible plan scales to any number of people.
Solo
Gamify your own habits. No household needed — just you, your tasks, and your rewards.
What makes it different
The rewards are yours.
Most chore apps track tasks and leave it there. The problem is that tracking alone doesn't change behaviour — there's no payoff. Brownie Points closes the loop with a reward economy your household controls entirely.
You write the rewards in plain text. "You pick the film Friday", "I'll handle school pickup all week", "breakfast in bed, no questions asked". They mean something because your household decided they do — not because an app told you they should.
Points don't expire. History doesn't disappear on downgrade. There are no dark patterns, no engineered lock-in. One-click cancel, anytime. We'd rather earn your continued use than manufacture it.
