Parent Approval lets you verify that tasks were actually completed before points are awarded. This is perfect for tasks where you want to check the quality of work or confirm completion.
Check work before awarding points

Streaks count from submission time
When creating or editing a recurring task in Settings, check the "Requires Parent Approval" box. Tasks requiring approval show a 👨👩👧 badge.
When an earner completes a task that requires approval, they tap the task button as usual. Instead of getting points immediately, the task shows "Waiting for approval..."
When you see the "Tasks Awaiting Your Approval" banner on your dashboard, click "Review Now". For each task, you can Approve ✓ or Reject ✗.
We know parents get busy! To protect your earner's streaks:
This means your earners won't lose their hard-earned streaks just because you were busy and couldn't approve right away.
To prevent forgotten approvals from breaking streaks, you can set an auto-approve timer:
If you don't review a task before the deadline, it automatically approves to protect the earner's streak.
Enable push notifications to get alerts when tasks are submitted for approval.
