About

Chores done. Screens unlocked. That's it.

taskr was built to end one specific argument: the daily fight over screens and chores.

The problem

Apple Screen Time is one of the best parental control systems ever shipped. It can lock apps, set downtime, filter content, and limit communication. But it has one giant blind spot: it doesn't know whether your kid finished their homework or made their bed.

Every parent who's tried to use Screen Time as a chore enforcement tool has done the same dance: open Settings, change a limit, change it back ten minutes later. taskr automates that dance.

The principle

Apps unlock when the chore is done. They lock when the chore is overdue. The reward is something kids already care about — access to the games and apps on their phone — and the consequence is automatic.

There is no surveillance, no nagging, no parent-as-cop mode. Just clear rules and a fast loop.

How we built it

taskr is built natively for iOS in SwiftUI on top of Apple's Family Controls and Screen Time APIs. That means everything taskr does is sanctioned by Apple, sandboxed by the OS, and reversible by the parent at any time.

We don't read messages, scan social media, or track location. We never sell data. There are no ads. The app is free.
