How it works

From “who's picking up Leo?” to one shared plan

Four short steps. You can skip any of them and come back later. Nestday starts useful with just you and a calendar.

  1. Add the people you live with

    Sign in with Google and name your household. Give everyone a color: children get a profile without an email address or password, and you decide what they can do.

    Setup step: the people in the household, each with a color and a role.

  2. Bring in your calendars

    Start with the built-in family calendar, add calendar links from school, teams or other apps, or connect Google Calendar. Each source shows exactly what Nestday can do with it, so there are no surprises about what's editable.

    Setup step: ways to bring in calendars, each labelled read-only, two-way or one-way.

  3. Open it on every phone

    Invite another adult with a link that works for 7 days and only for the email you enter. Nestday doesn't send emails yet, so you share the link yourself. Everyone sees today first: what's next and whose turn it is.

    Home on a phone: a greeting, quick add buttons and each family member's chores.

  4. Pair the kitchen screen

    Open Nestday's display page on a tablet, monitor or TV browser, then scan its QR code or type its code on your phone. The screen never needs your password, and you can disconnect it any time.

A day with Nestday

Quietly there from breakfast to bedtime

  • Household display in landscape: a large clock and date, today's events, each child's chores, today's meal and the shopping list.
    7:30 AM

    Morning on the wall

    Everyone sees who needs to be where, and the kids check off their morning chores.

  • Home on a phone: a greeting, quick add buttons and each family member's chores.
    3:00 PM

    On the go

    What's next on your phone, with the place already filled in.

  • Weekly meal planner with tacos planned for dinner today.
    5:45 PM

    Dinner's planned

    Tonight's meal from the weekly plan, with the shopping list already sorted.

  • 9:30 PM

    Lights down

    The display dims to a calm clock and a peek at tomorrow.

Stays in sync, honestly

You'll always know if something needs attention

If a calendar stops syncing or needs you to sign in again, Nestday says so in plain words and shows when it last worked. Calendars that can only be read stay read-only, so nothing is changed by surprise.

Who can do what

  • Owners and admins

    Everything, including members, calendar connections, displays and household settings.

  • Adults

    Events, chores, lists, meals and reward approvals.

  • Children

    Their own chores and rewards, shared lists and the family calendar, with private events shown as "Busy".

These permissions are checked by the server on every request, not just hidden on screen. More detail in Getting started.

Start with step one. It takes a minute.
