Each child starts the week with their allowance. Rewards add to it and deductions take away. When payday ends, a new week starts at the full allowance, and the finished week waits under Ready to Pay until you mark it paid. You can also choose New Week Starts › When I Pay Out to end each week yourself.

Money children earn a weekly allowance in dollars. Points children fill a jar toward a reward you name, like a trip for ice cream. Change it any time under a child's Edit › Earns.

Reaching the goal is celebrated, but points can still be lost until the week ends. If your child is still at the goal when the week ends, the reward is earned and waits under Ready to Redeem. If you chose Jar Ends › When I Redeem, tap Redeem once you've given the reward.

On a money child's page, tap Set a Savings Goal and enter what they're saving for and what it costs. Tap Add to Savings whenever they put money aside. When the goal is reached, tap Mark as Bought.

Yes. Go to Settings › Quick Reasons to add, edit, reorder, or delete them. You can also type a new reason when you reward or deduct and save it for next time.

Touch and hold an empty spot on your Home Screen, tap Edit › Add Widget, and choose HabitLoot. Balance shows one child; press and hold it, then tap Edit Widget to choose who. All Kids shows everyone, and its large size adds each jar and savings goal.

Yes. The medium Balance widget has buttons for your first two rewards and first two deductions in Settings › Quick Reasons; reorder them there to choose which appear. After a tap, Undo shows on the widget for a few minutes.

Say "Reward [child's name] in HabitLoot", "Deduct from [child's name] in HabitLoot", or "Check [child's name]'s balance in HabitLoot". Siri asks which quick reason to use. The same actions are in the Shortcuts app, so you can build your own.

Not if you turn on Settings › Require Face ID. While it's on, the widget shows this week's changes instead of buttons, and Siri can't change balances either. On a child's own device, the widget only ever shows their balance.

Go to Settings › Family › Invite the Other Parent and send the invite by Messages or Mail. When they open it on their iPhone with HabitLoot installed, you'll both be able to reward, deduct, and pay out. Both of you need to be signed in to iCloud.

Yes. Open the child's page, tap the share button next to Edit, and send the invite to the Apple Account your child uses. They'll see only their own balance, savings goal, and history, and they can't change anything.

Go to Settings › Family › Manage Access to remove the other parent, or open a child's page and use the share button to stop sharing with them.

No. Someone who joins your family uses your purchase. With Apple Family Sharing turned on, everyone in your Apple family gets it too.

Sign in to the same iCloud account and install HabitLoot. Your family comes back on its own shortly after you open HabitLoot. Check that iCloud is turned on for HabitLoot in Settings › [your name] › iCloud.

Yes. HabitLoot doesn't collect any data. Everything stays on your devices and in your own iCloud account. See the Privacy Policy.

Turn on Settings › Require Face ID. HabitLoot will ask for Face ID or your passcode every time it opens, and widget buttons and Siri won't change balances while it's on.

Free covers one child, with money or points, savings goals, and reminders. HabitLoot Family is a one-time purchase that adds more children and family sharing. There's no subscription.
