Kikaroo

What is Kikaroo and how does it work?

Kikaroo is a chore and rewards app for families. Parents assign tasks to their kids, kids complete them and earn points, then redeem those points for custom rewards you create. Like screen time, treats, or special outings. It's designed to make chores fun and build lasting positive habits.

What kind of tasks can I assign to my child?

Anything! Daily chores like making the bed, brushing teeth, or tidying their room. Weekly tasks like vacuuming or helping with laundry. Personal goals like reading for 20 minutes, practicing an instrument, or being kind to a sibling. Kikaroo is fully customisable to fit your family's unique values and routines.

Are the rewards built-in, or do I create them?

You create the rewards! Whether it's a movie night, a small toy, extra screen time, a trip to the park, or a sleepover. You decide what your kids can earn. This means rewards are always meaningful and motivating for your specific child, not some generic list.

Is Kikaroo really free? What's the catch?

No catch! Core features, unlimited chores, points, and basic rewards, are free forever. No credit card required. We offer a premium plan for households or parents who want advanced reporting and customisation. We believe every family deserves access to the basics.

What age is Kikaroo best suited for?

Kikaroo works best for children aged 4-18. Younger kids (4-7) love the visual rewards and simple task ticking. Older kids (8-18) enjoy the points strategy and goal-setting aspect. You can adjust the complexity, point values, and rewards to suit each child's age and maturity level.

Can I use Kikaroo on both iPhone and Android?

Yes! Kikaroo is available on both iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). Mixed-device households are fully supported. Everyone shares the same family account, and data syncs across all devices in real time.

How is my family's data protected?

We take privacy very seriously. Kikaroo never shows ads, never sells your data, and is designed with children's safety in mind. We comply with both COPPA and GDPR. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time, directly from the app's settings.

Does Kikaroo require an internet connection?

Kikaroo requires an internet connection to sync data between parent and child devices in real time. This ensures that when your child marks a chore as done, you see it instantly. We recommend a Wi-Fi or mobile data connection for the smoothest experience.
