Sign in
This page manages who is in your household and what they can reach. It holds no chores, lists or notes.
Sign-in is not configured on this deployment yet. An administrator needs to finish setting up Google sign-in before anyone can get in.
Almost there
Confirm the email address this invitation was sent to and we will sign you in.
Create your household
You are signed in, but you are not part of a household yet. Create one and you become its owner — you can add everyone else afterwards.
You can see your household but not change it — only a household lead can. Ask one of them if something needs updating.

Household
School hours
Days and hours when the apps below stay shut for the children in this family. Adults are never affected. Set it once here and every app obeys the same answer — you do not set it again in each app.
Both times are on the same day — school hours do not run past midnight. The clock is this household's, or a child's own if you have given them one.
Which apps this applies to
Unlock for a while
Opens one app for a set time and then closes it again on its own. It does not change the schedule.
Combine with another household
Waiting for your answer
Ask another household to combine
Use this when one family has ended up with two separate spaces — usually because two adults each signed up before finding each other. A lead of the other household has to agree before anything happens.
Who is in this family
Add someone
An external carer is given a BalancedLife role only. They are deliberately not added to Home at all — they have no business in the family's lists or notes.
Apps that use this family
Every app your family's sign-in reaches, and what each one supports today. A status shows where it came from if you hover it. "No" means that app has not told us it is done — it never means we assumed.
| App | Kind | School hours | Kid device sign-in |
|---|
PIN
4–8 digits, 6 by default. Each child needs their own PIN. Five wrong tries locks it for fifteen minutes — you can clear that here.
Devices
Growing up
When a child is old enough to have their own sign-in, make them an adult here. They keep their person id, so nothing they have earned or written in any app is lost.
Administration
A household always keeps at least one lead.
Access
Remove
This person has never signed in to any app, so removing them leaves nothing behind anywhere. Use this to undo a mistake or a duplicate.
Revoking access is immediate and applies to every app at once. It does not delete their data — each app holds its own, and you delete it there. They cannot be removed from the roster outright, because they have already signed in and the apps hold data keyed to them.
This is you. Removing or revoking your own access is refused — ask another adult in the household to do it.
