What’s happening, what’s needed, and who’s doing it.

Today and Tomorrow

Who’s where, what’s on, dinner, and anything that still needs somebody. Tomorrow is one tap away, with what to prepare tonight.

Needs attention

A short list of things nobody has taken on yet, or plans that don’t work — like a pickup given to someone who’ll be at the office.

Ordinary, covered family life stays quiet.

Add

One button to add an activity, a journey or a meal to a day — or a to-do or shopping item any time.

Plan

The next few days at a glance: who’s where, getting about, clubs and activities, meals, preparation and responsibilities. Days with something to sort are marked.

Preparation

Kit, supplies and forms become jobs with a “by when” — so the PE kit is somebody’s job on Wednesday evening, not a panic on Thursday morning.

Work and places

Record where adults are working — home, the office, away — so the family can see who’s actually free for the pickup.

Responsibility

“I’ll do it” takes something on. “Assign” gives it to somebody else, and says if they aren’t free at the time.

Completion

Taking something on isn’t the same as finishing it. Kit is marked “Ready”, other jobs “Done” — so everyone knows it’s actually sorted.

Children

A child can have their own simpler view of their day, jot down their own things to remember, and ask for something to be added to the shopping.

They can’t change the household’s plans or settings.

Homework

See what’s due, for whom, and tick it off when it’s done.

Lists

A shared to-do list and a shared shopping list, alongside the rest of family life.

The Assistant

Ask things like “What’s happening tomorrow?” — or ask for a small change, such as adding to the shopping list. It shows you the change first, and nothing happens until you confirm.

School and club emails

Forward them to your household’s FamilyStatus address. It reads what a message appears to say — a changed date, something needed — and puts it in Reviews.

Term dates and club calendars

Connect a school’s term-dates page or calendar, or a club’s calendar. FamilyStatus checks for changes and asks about them.

Reviews, not surprises

Each suggestion shows the lines it came from. Choose “Add this” or “Leave it out”. A feed dropping an event is never treated as a cancellation.

Not yet: letters as PDFs or photos.

Your phone’s calendar

Subscribe to a private, read-only calendar of the family’s timed plans, so your phone’s usual alerts still work.

It shows plans; changes are made in FamilyStatus.

More than one home

Where a child lives across two households, each keeps its own planning. A linked adult sees what’s shared for that child — school, homework, activities — not the other household.
