Family chore app for iPhone and iPad

Family chores, with screen time kids earn.

KlusQuest gives kids a chore board and parents a shared approval view. You review each chore; your child collects the coins, then exchanges them for screen time or an agreed reward. For iPhone and iPad, iOS 17.4 or later.

How it works

Assign a chore, agree what done means, and keep the reward clear. Approval, collecting coins and starting screen time are separate steps.

  1. You set a mission
  2. Your child ticks it off, with a photo if you ask
  3. You approve or send it back
  4. Your child collects the approved coins
  5. Your child exchanges coins and starts screen time
  6. Minutes used or bedtime: locked again

What's in the app

A mission board your child checks on their own

Your child sees the chores waiting today on their own iPhone or iPad. Add a clear task such as 'Put clean clothes in the drawers', with a photo if you need one. Submitted work waits for a parent to review.

Approve with one tap, or send it back with a tip

You or your co-parent review submitted chores in 'Waiting for you'. Approve the work or send it back with a useful tip. Approved coins are ready for your child to collect; approval alone does not unlock apps.

Screen time that runs itself

You decide how many minutes of screen time one coin opens. Each day starts with the daily minutes you set, separately for weekdays and weekends, and those cost no coins. When they are used up, your child swaps coins for extra minutes. When they start their time, the apps you picked open through Apple's Screen Time; when the minutes run out, those apps lock again. The app says stop, not you. During locked hours, such as school time, bedtime and dinner, the chosen apps stay locked even if minutes are left. Your child can ask for more time; you decide.

Pause selected apps for family time

With Screen Time permission on linked child devices, choose a family-time period of 30, 60 or 90 minutes, or until tomorrow morning. iOS decides which system apps remain available; KlusQuest stays reachable.

Rather keep it simple?

Then everything works as a voucher. Earned minutes become credit you manage yourself, and the app does not lock anything.

One chore plan, shared by both parents

Link your co-parent with a code so you both see the family's chores and rewards. Either parent can review submitted work. Your child's device and the parent views stay in sync.

Fair and safe

Separate screens for parent and child. No ads, no loot boxes and no punishment for a missed day: an undone chore simply expires. No bank linking. Proof photos are kept only while a chore is waiting for review.

What you need

KlusQuest locks and unlocks apps through Apple's Screen Time, on your child's own device. With a Child Account in your Family Sharing group, you give Screen Time permission on that device. It also works with an ordinary Apple Account, but then your child can delete the app.

Your child's own iPhone or iPad

Running iOS 17.4 or later. The lock works on the device being locked.

A Child Account in Family Sharing

Recommended for managing a child's Screen Time. Authorize access on the child's device; a Child Account is not a guarantee against every bypass.

Your own phone, or the parent area on theirs

With a second device you approve from your own phone. One shared device works too, with the parent area behind a PIN.

What parents ask us

Does KlusQuest work on Android?

No. KlusQuest is for iPhone and iPad only, on iOS 17.4 or later, because the lock works through Apple's Screen Time.

What if my child skips a day?

Nothing happens. An undone chore expires; nothing is taken away and a missed day is never punished.

Who approves the chores?

You or your linked co-parent. After approval, your child collects the coins. Exchanging those coins and starting screen time are separate steps.

Can my co-parent join?

Yes. You link a co-parent with a code; they get the same parent view, and every device stays in sync.

What does my child see?

Their own mission board with today's chores, their coins and rewards, and whether their apps are open or locked. The parent area sits behind a PIN.
