Features

Everything your household runs on, in one calm place

Everything below is built and works now, and the core features are free. All of them share the same family members, colors and privacy settings, so nothing needs setting up twice.

Family calendar

Everyone's week, one glance

See the whole family in day, week, month or agenda view, filtered by person, calendar or category when you need to focus.

  • A color and initial for every person
  • Google Calendar, read-only or read-and-write, alongside family events
  • Calendar links (ICS) from school, teams, Outlook or iCloud, refreshed automatically
  • Always shows the source, and whether an event can be edited
  • Repeating events, all-day events and private "Busy" blocks

Limits: Changing “this and following” repeats isn't available yet. External calendars refresh on a schedule, not instantly.

Chores, routines & rewards

Helping out, made visible

Morning and bedtime routines, one-off jobs and repeating chores. Kids check them off on a phone, tablet or the household display.

  • Templates to start from, not build from scratch
  • Optional stars kids can save for rewards
  • A grown-up approves every reward
  • Personal progress, no leaderboards
Today's chores grouped by person, with progress and stars for each chore.
Chores on a phone: each child's chores for today with check buttons and stars.
Lists

The shopping list everyone can add to

Shared lists for shopping, to-dos and anything else, with quantities, notes and categories. Checked items move out of the way.

  • The same list on every family member's device
  • Check off and add from the household display too
  • Undo for every check-off and delete

Meals, recipes & pantry

Answer “what's for dinner?” once a week

Plan meals on a simple weekly grid, keep the family's recipes in one place and send ingredients to the shopping list after a quick review.

  • Recipes with servings and ingredients
  • The grocery review flags what the pantry already has
  • Pantry flags for low stock and the expiry dates you enter

Household display

Landscape on the wall, portrait in the hallway

Pair any screen with a short code or QR code. It shows today, the week, chores, lists and meals, updates by itself, and adult-only actions are locked behind a PIN. At night it dims to a clock or family photos.

Limits: a browser can't turn the screen off or wake a sleeping device; use the device's own settings for that.

  • Privacy on shared screens

    Each event can be private, and each display shows only what the family has chosen to share.

  • Roles that fit a family

    Owner, admin, adult and child, checked by the server, so children see their own view.

  • Honest sync

    Nestday tells you when a calendar needs attention, and shows which events can be edited.

Also included

  • A Home page you can customize: choose widgets, sizes and order, for the household or just for you.
  • A shared notes board with checklists and pinned notes.
  • Several households per person, and invitation links for other adults that last 7 days and work only for the invited email.
  • Export everything as a file; deleted items can be restored until they're deleted permanently.

Limits: Nestday doesn't send emails or push notifications yet; reminders appear while Nestday is open.
