How do I capture happy moments – and what does the Family tab show?

The Family tab (outside of families Us) shows all members as big tiles and below them the shared wall of happy moments. It is part of every view, including the kids’ simple view.

Part 1

Tiles & badges

Every active member appears as a tile with their own background and profile picture; yours carries “YOU” in the corner. There are no numbers here.

  1. Open a person

    A tap on a tile opens the person full screen, with their happy moments.

  2. Read the badges

    Only whoever is ahead gets a golden border and a floating badge. The legend below explains them.

    BadgeMeaning
    💎 Super saverHas the most diamonds right now.
    🏆 Points championHas collected the most points overall.
    🌟 Star of the monthHas collected the most points this month.
Good to know

On a tie all leaders get the badge. Only earned points count (spending changes nothing), the month follows the household’s time zone, and nobody at 0 gets one.

Part 2

Capture a happy moment

Everyone in the household can capture moments – kids and guests too.

  1. Tap the plus

    In the Family tab tap the floating plus or Capture.

  2. What was nice?

    Under What was nice? write briefly, e.g. “pancake Sunday with everyone” – up to 140 characters.

  3. Colour and sticker

    Colour: one of six (sun, peach, mint, sky, berry, lilac). Sticker: e.g. 🎉 🥞 ⚽️ 🎂 🐶 🌈.

  4. Photo (optional)

    Add photo – from the library or straight from the camera. The photo appears on the card.

  5. Animation (optional)

    Animation: plays when someone taps the card. For happy moments all animations are free – or None.

  6. Save

    The preview at the top shows the finished card. Capture hangs it on the wall; the others get a notification that leads straight to the Family tab.

Good to know

Happy moments earn no points and no diamonds – on purpose. At most 20 moments per person per day. They do not appear on the kitchen board; only greetings to the Kitchen board recipient hang there.

Part 3

React, enlarge, delete

  1. React

    Below every card are ❤️ 😂 👏 with a counter. One tap reacts, a second takes it back.

  2. Enlarge

    A tap on the card shows it large, with photo and animation.

  3. Delete

    In the card’s menu or in the large view Delete → Delete this happy moment?. Everyone can delete their own moments, admins all of them.
