Is there an Android version?

No. Lau’s Chores is for iPhone and iPad, because it shares your household through iCloud.

Do we need to make accounts?

No. Lau’s Chores uses the Apple ID you’re already signed in with. There are no sign-ups or passwords.

Can children use it on a shared iPad?

Yes. Tap your avatar to switch person. Switching to a child is instant; switching to a parent needs Face ID, Touch ID or the passcode.

What do you do with our data?

Nothing: we never see it. Your household stays on your devices and in your own iCloud, shared only with the people you invite.

Chores, shared fairly. Done together.

Lau’s Chores is a chore app for families. Parents set up rooms, chores and prizes. Everyone ticks off what they’ve done and sees how they’re getting on against their share of the month, with Lau cheering the whole family on.

Tick it off

Everyone knows what’s due today

Today shows each person’s chores, room by room, with anything overdue at the top. Tap to tick one off. Did someone else do it? Say who, and they get the points.

Fair shares

A fair share of the month, for everyone

Parents give each person a share of the month’s points. The dashboard shows how everyone’s getting on: “On track” or “A bit behind”. Nobody is ranked.

The Dashboard screen: the family’s progress for October, and each person’s points against their share, in family order.

Prizes & badges

Prizes that are yours, and only yours

Set a prize for each person, for points or for a share of their target. Children see only their own prizes, and everyone collects badges for streaks and milestones.

The Prizes screen: a prize won, ready to hand over, and progress towards a film night pick and a cinema trip.

Widgets

Tick chores from your Home Screen

A widget for each person shows what’s left today. Tick a chore off right there, without opening the app.

Your iCloud

The whole family, on every device

Invite your family through iCloud, from the Messages or Mail app. Everything syncs through your own iCloud: there are no accounts to make and nothing for us to see.

Inviting the family: the iOS share sheet with an iCloud invitation to join the household.

Cooperative, never competitive

Gamification that brings families together

Lau’s Chores makes chores a bit of fun without turning brothers and sisters against each other.

No leaderboards

People appear in family order, never by score. Lau cheers the whole family on and never singles anyone out.
Fair by design

The first to tick a shared room gets its points. Miss a chore and it simply comes round again: no pile-up, no penalty.
Personal streaks

Streaks, badges and prizes compare you with yourself, so everyone has something to aim for.

Your family’s data stays yours

We don’t collect anything. No accounts, no ads, no analytics and no tracking. Your household lives on your devices and in your own iCloud.
