Quick answers

How does the app work?

A parent sets it up: add your kids, then stock a library of "Plays" (screen-free activities) — add from the built-in list, or snap a photo of toys/games and let the app suggest activities. Then hand the phone to your kid: they tap "I'm bored!", get three ideas tailored to their age, and pick one.

How do I add or edit my kids?

Open the parent area (the gear icon) and go to your kids to add another child or update a name or birthdate. Ages are calculated from birthdate so activities stay age-appropriate.

The "add from photo" tool isn't working.

Make sure you're signed in and have a connection — the photo feature needs the cloud to generate suggestions. Try a clear, well-lit shot of toys, games, or craft supplies. If it still fails, email us with your device and what you saw.

I signed in on another phone — where's my stuff?

Your library follows your account. Sign in with the same email, Google, or Apple you used before and your kids and Plays will be there. One account = one shared family across devices.

I forgot my password.

On the sign-in screen choose Forgot password and we'll email you a reset link.

How do I delete my account and data?

You can delete your account from inside the app in the parent settings — this permanently removes your account and all associated family data (kids, Plays, and history). You can also email us at alharris603@gmail.com and we'll handle it.
