Email igorvinson@gmail.com. Tell us what happened, which device you use (iPhone, iPad or Android) and, if you can, add a screenshot. We usually reply within 2 business days.
Who needs an account? Only parents. A parent signs up with email and password, Google, or Sign in with Apple (on iPhone and iPad), then creates the family.
Can two parents share a family? Yes. On the Family screen, invite the other parent by email. They join the same family with their own account.
I can't sign in. If you signed up with Google or Apple, use the same button again. If you use email and password and can't get in, email us from that address and we'll help.
How do I add a kid? Open the Family screen and tap Add a kid. Enter a name (a nickname is fine) and age.
How does a kid sign in? Kids don't need an email or phone number. On the kid's device, tap I'm a kid, enter the 6-character family code from your Family screen, tap their name and pick a 4-digit PIN.
A kid forgot their PIN. Open the kid on the Family screen, tap Edit, then Reset PIN. They pick a new PIN next time they join with the family code.
How do I remove a kid or a device? Edit the kid and tap Remove kid. Their devices lose access to the family. When a kid joins on a new device, parents see it on the home screen and can tap Remove device.
How does a check-in work? When a kid finishes an activity, they open it and send a check-in, with photos and an optional short video or voice note as proof. It shows up for parents to review.
How do I approve? Open the parent home screen, look at the check-in and approve it, or tap Try again to send it back. You can add a short note of encouragement.
Who can see the photos and videos? Only parents in your family. Videos are deleted automatically about 1 day after they are sent. Photos, videos and voice notes are never sent to AI.
How are points earned? Bonus activities earn points once a parent approves them. Must-do activities don't earn points. Instead, finishing all of today's must-dos unlocks the daily reward.
How do rewards work? You set every reward and its price in points. A kid asks for a reward and a parent approves it. If a request is turned down, the kid keeps their points.
What are challenges? A goal that runs from 1 to 500 days, like reading every evening for 2 weeks. A day counts when its activities are approved, and finishing the challenge wins its prize.
Can I delete my account? Yes, at any time, from inside the app. See the steps below.
What gets deleted? If you are the only parent, your account and the whole family: kids, activities, challenges, rewards, approvals, photos, videos, voice notes and invitations. Kids are signed out. If another parent is in the family, only your account is removed and the family stays with them.
Is it permanent? Yes. Deleted data can't be restored.
Can't open the app? Email igorvinson@gmail.com from the email address you sign in with, with the subject "Delete my KidsRise account". More on the account deletion page.
