Pros and cons of ChoreMonster app for iPhone and iPad
ChoreMonster app good for
Amazing incentive to teach my youngster about responsibility and positive consequences for following through on tasks! Thank you for creating such a wonderful tool that is so easy to use and adjust when needed!!
The concept behind this app is amazing. My kids are totally into it and are now helping out whenever they can for bonus points. Their chores are done before I even have to ask and on the weekends they help my wife and I with dusting and laundry. I recommend it to everyone. A must have for any parent.
This app is brilliant! I tried everything from chore boards, awards, time out, taking away toys, you name it. This app made life a lot easier with a 4 year old and a 7 year old asking for chores all of a sudden. Parents, give this app a try, youll know what Im talking about

Tanks for password recovery
I was using the app every day. All chores were in the app. Since update the app log me out and there is no way to recover our passwords. My kid has lost all of Monster he has unlocked, stars and tickets.
I will change my review when password recovery will be available
I recently bought this app and
my kids immediately bought in. It has helped me to quit nagging them immensely. I love how it can be personalized for each child. I had an area where I needed help. I immediately contacted the developer and I had a quick response and solution! Love it so far!
This app changed my familys life! That is no exaggeration. I originally gave this app a bad review because it didnt allow me to sign up, so it basically didnt work. A little research taught me that the sign up doesnt work on app so you just have to do it through safari on their website. Once you have a login youre good go go on the app and. Ow my kids are doing chores, gaining points and reaping rewards. My relationship with my kids has turned 180degrees. I highly recommend it!
Some bad moments
My son and I loved this app at first but now the chores duplicate. Yesterday it showed the same chore 3 times so instead of 10 chores in total to chose from it showed 3. The pictures also disappear. Sometimes the score doesnt update.
I downloaded this app last week and had tried daily to register through email with 4 different emails and it will not accept my registration. Whats up with that!?!
You will have the pleasure of spending hours entering chores for your kids with the awful UI, then your kids will try to mark the chores they did. The app will lose these. Many times. You will get into arguments on points earned. You will give the app another chance. Itll work for a bit, then decide, one morning to negatively cumulate. Your kids will have -18 points. Using this is most definitely a chore.
Oh and dont bother with their teens app which just does not work at all.
Disappearing chores... again? This is not worth my while. Too bad, good concept, but poorly executed. Also, should allow chores to be scheduled for weekdays only.
My kids USED to love this app. And always begged for more chores. I WAS a fan as well because it WAS (now isnt) so easy to navigate, add, edit, track etc.
You added mothership and not only did my kids accounts NOT transfer over....I gave up even trying to load them on "my" mothership app because it just wasnt going to happen. Created all new accounts for them, added all the new chores with all the "was so great" pics that went with the chores only to see them all fail and either duplicate or default each and every chore pic to some generic brush your teeth picture.
I was recommending the original chore monster app to everyone....telling my friends they wouldnt believe how this app thing got kiddos excited about chores and how easy it was for mommy to use it too.
You ruined it with the most recent update and "mothership". Its a HOT mess....my kiddos hate it now anddddddd they have once again lost interest in chores (crying a little inside)!
Please bring back the old!!!!!!!!!
Mothership landed just in time to mess up our system, right as school started... Monster was great before this update.
