Everyone knows what to do. And how.

collabDoo is a native app for iPhone and iPad from iOS 17 – with widgets for the home and lock screen, Siri shortcuts and Live Activities. For Android 8.0 and later, collabDoo is available for free on Google Play – with widgets, app shortcuts and important tasks on the lock screen. All data lives on our servers, not on the device: mixed households with iPhone and Android work on the same data.

No. One parent account (e-mail/password or Sign in with Apple) is enough. Kids and guests are profiles in the household and switch with a PIN – no e-mail address needed. That is the clean solution for children under 13 and also works on a shared kitchen tablet.

For families, school classes and shared flats collabDoo is free – and stays free. We show no ads and sell no data. collabDoo is a passion project of Code Piraten GmbH; we earn our living with ticketYoo, guestoo and workYoo. Only for commercial use in larger teams do we reserve the right to charge something in the future.

Yes – with maths practice. A task like “practise maths” is then not ticked off but completed with a round of sums: addition, subtraction, times tables and division for years 1 to 4, with a quick pick per year, number range, tables, number of tasks and time limit. Right answers come with confetti, wrong ones with the solution. The grade decides the points; below 50 % the task stays open. Guide: set up maths practice.

Yes. Every point earned is also a diamond. You trade diamonds for rewards, profile pictures, backgrounds and greeting animations, chip them in to a group pot or swap them in the marketplace for help from the family (“do the laundry once”). The points themselves (stars) stay and keep counting for all goals. You set prices per household, 0 = free. There is also styling (ring, frame, your own celebration for 30 days) and harmless pranks you block with a mini game – see style & spells. Guide: diamonds & marketplace.

On servers in Germany, operated by Code Piraten GmbH from Essen. Uploaded files are stored encrypted (AES-256), photos are saved without location data. You can delete members, the household or your account completely at any time. More under privacy & security.

You decide per task. For school holidays, public holidays and your own vacation every task has three settings: Normal (no effect), Not (“pack the school bag” is skipped during the holidays) or Only (“practise maths” only exists during the holidays, but not on vacation). collabDoo knows school and public holidays for all 16 German federal states; vacations you enter as periods. Catch-up tasks like “descale the coffee machine” are not dropped, they move to the next suitable day. Guide: school holidays, public holidays & vacation.

Everyone chooses their own style and view. If musketeers and confetti are too much for you, take the minimalist style: calm, glass cards, one accent colour, no celebration animations. And if you prefer a classic to-do list, choose the list view with smart lists, sections and round ticks like Apple’s Reminders. The kids keep their colourful simple view meanwhile – same tasks, different presentation. Set after the first login and any time under More → Appearance.

Yes: several times a day with the times “7:00 before breakfast” and “19:00 after dinner” turns two tasks into one. Several medications at the same time are grouped by group as into one card “Grandma’s medication (3)” with “All done”. Private ensures only the assignees see the task – never on the kitchen display. And important nags until it is done. Guide: setting up medication.

Normal reminders may get lost – not “give the dog its medicine”. That is why every task can be an important task with three levels: as a time-sensitive notification that gets through Focus mode; nagging until done; or pinned to the lock screen until someone ticks it off. Every reminder also has “Done” and “In 15 min” buttons right in the notification. And if someone did the task but forgot to tick it off, an admin marks it as done for that person with one tap. Guide: important tasks.

The Today view is cached and completions are queued and sent as soon as there is a connection again – in the basement or at the clubhouse with weak reception, for example.

Yes. One account can be a member of several households – at home and in the club, for example. Each household has its own members, tasks, points and goals.
