Know what happens next.And who has it.
One calm app for pickups, dinner, chores, groceries, and every family list. Glance once in the morning, and both parents know the day.
Sound familiar?
“Who's getting Noah?”
The same pickup question, asked and answered in chat, again, because it lives in nobody's calendar.
Five apps, one family
A shared calendar, a chat thread, a notes app, a chore whiteboard, and someone's memory. None of them agree.
The dinner stare
Everyone's hungry, nothing's defrosted, and the week's plan was a good intention from last Tuesday.
One calm app instead of
morning glance to know the whole day
dinners decided in one sitting
heads-up before every pickup you own
points, streaks, or guilt mechanics
Set the week once. Live it calmly.
Set up in an evening. Useful the very next morning.
Set your normal week
School times, office hours, swim class, and who does pickups on which days. Entered once, reused every week.
Invite your partner
One invite code and both parents see and shape the same plan. Kids are profiles, not accounts.
Glance each morning
Today shows the next handoff, tonight's dinner, and only the things that actually need a decision.
Five tabs. The whole household.
Every screen answers one family question. No dashboards, no scoreboards, no guilt.
The family relay
Everyone's day on one timeline. Who is where, who hands off to whom, and what changed from the normal week.
- Next pickup with the responsible parent, front and center
- One-off changes stand out from the routine
- Home Screen widget for the glance without unlocking
Dinner, decided once
Plan the week's dinners in one sitting. Import recipes from any website, remember what the kids actually ate, and send missing ingredients straight to the grocery list.
- Week strip shows which evenings are settled at a glance
- "Liked by Noah & Emma" right where you pick
- One-tap outs for busy nights: leftovers, takeout, eating out
Home care without scoreboards
Recurring chores with clear owners, rotation between adults, and open chores anyone can claim when they have time. "I have 20 minutes" builds you a useful reset.
- Three calm views: due today, open to claim, and done
- A fair-at-a-glance split, never a ranking
- Pause chores when life happens
Every family list, in one place
Groceries, the summer camping trip, the house renovation, the kids' summer activities, school prep in August, birthday shopping in December. One quiet home for the running things a family carries all year.
- Groceries with a shopping mode that groups by aisle and keeps the screen awake
- Family lists for renovations, packing, activities, school forms, garden projects, gift ideas
- Assign items to whoever's actually doing it, so nothing falls to "someone will"
- Weekly grocery delivery rhythm with an order-by reminder before you miss it
One household, clearly owned
The people, the pickups, the birthdays, and the important dates. With preparation nudges before the moments that matter, not after.
- Member photos and colors make ownership obvious everywhere
- Birthdays and family dates with timely reminders
- Notifications you choose. Never an engagement channel.
Small things, done properly.
Home Screen widgets
Today at a glance and any list you're running. Without unlocking the app.
Shopping mode
Big check targets grouped by aisle, a remaining count, and a screen that stays awake.
Recipe import
Paste a link from any recipe site and the ingredients arrive ready to plan.
Reminders that respect you
A pickup nudge before it matters. A planning moment on Sunday. Never a nag.
Built by a parent who needed it.
FamPlan started in our own kitchen. Two working parents, two kids, and a week that lived across a shared calendar, a chat thread, and sticky notes. Until the Thursday we both stood at school pickup, because “I thought you had it.”
So I built the app we actually needed: one place where the week is visible, pickups have owners, dinner is decided once, and nobody keeps score. Our family has run on it every day since. I hope it gives your family the same calm it gave ours.
The daily plan is free. Forever.

Fair questions, straight answers.
Is FamPlan really free?
Yes. The daily plan is free with no trial clock: Today, the normal week, pickups, groceries with shopping mode, family events, birthdays, widgets, and the recipe box. FamPlan Plus removes the limits on chores, family lists, and recipes, and unlocks recipe import from the web.
Does my partner need their own subscription?
No. One FamPlan Plus subscription covers the entire household. Your partner joins with an invite code and gets everything, at no extra cost.
What exactly does FamPlan Plus unlock?
Four things: unlimited recurring chores (free plans hold 3), unlimited family lists (free plans hold 2), unlimited recipes in the box (free holds 3), and recipe import from any website. Nothing on the daily plan is gated.
Is Lists just a grocery app?
No. Groceries live on their own with shopping mode and delivery rhythm, and family lists cover everything else a household is running: house renovation, packing for the summer trip, kids' activities, school prep, garden project, gift shopping, and any list you invent.
Do my kids need accounts?
No. Children are profiles that adults manage. No emails, no passwords, no accounts for kids. You decide what goes in.
Is this another chore-points app for kids?
Deliberately not. FamPlan has no points, streaks, leaderboards, or guilt mechanics. It shows who owns what, calmly, and lets your family be a family, not a game.
Where is our data stored?
On your device. If you turn on sharing, it syncs through our secured backend where only your household can read it. See the privacy policy for the full picture.
What happens if we stop using it?
Delete your account in the app and your household's cloud data goes with it. No dark patterns, no "email us to delete."
Give your family the calm week.
Free to start. One subscription covers the whole household.
