Family Chore Reward App
IOweU helps families keep track of chores, rewards, tasks and everyday promises, so everyone knows what was agreed and what still needs to happen.
Make family follow-through easier
Family follow-through, kid chores with optional rewards, and everyday promises that stick.
IOweU gives parents and children a shared place to log chores, tasks and small promises — visible to both sides, with push notifications when something is accepted, done or reassigned.
Track chores and tasks
Every chore is an IOU — a small promise of work owed to the family. Once logged, neither side has to remember whose turn it is.
Tidy & clean
Rooms, kitchen, bathroom, shared spaces.
Bedrooms & laundry
Beds, washing, folding, putting clothes away.
Pets
Walks, feeding, brushing, vet trips.
Plants & garden
Watering, weeding, taking out the trash.
Meals & dishes
Setting the table, dishes, clearing up.
Homework & reading
Daily reading time, school routines.
Add optional rewards
Any chore or task in IOweU can carry an optional reward — a small allowance, a movie night, screen time, an outing. When the chore is completed, the reward turns into a new IOU automatically, so nothing has to be tracked twice.
Kids can also create their own chores and propose a reward. Parents accept, propose a change, or settle — the same flow as a regular IOU.
Useful for parents and children
Parents
Assign chores, attach rewards, see what got done.
Children
See what is expected today and what reward is on it.
Rewards
Allowance, screen time, treats, outings — your call.
Everyday promises
"I will pick you up at 5" — logged, visible, hard to forget.

Frequently asked questions
Is IOweU suitable for children?
IOweU is designed for teenagers and adults. Younger kids typically use it through a parent's device, or with their own account under parental supervision, depending on age and local rules.
How do rewards work?
Any chore or task can have an optional reward attached. When the chore is settled, the reward becomes a new IOU automatically — so you do not have to log it twice.
Can children create their own chores?
Yes. Kids can create a chore IOU themselves and propose a reward. Parents accept, propose a change or settle, just like any other IOU.
Is IOweU free for families?
Yes. The app is 100% free with no in-app purchases. It is ad-supported, made in Switzerland, and your data is hosted in the EU under GDPR.
