Routines & tasks

Routines and tasks are the heart of TaDone. This is where each family member’s day is laid out, where tasks get ticked off, and where points are earned.

Tasks vs. routines

TaDone has two kinds of to-do:

• A task is a one-off — a single thing to do on a single day. Use it for something that happens once, like “Tidy the garage on Saturday”.
• A routine is a repeating template. You pick the weekdays it runs on, and TaDone automatically creates a fresh task from it on every one of those days. Use it for the things that come round again and again, like “Brush teeth” every morning.

How routines become tasks

A routine is a template. On each weekday you chose, TaDone fans it out into a normal daily task on the board. Completing that day’s task never changes the template — the routine keeps producing a new task the next time it’s due.

Earning points

Every task carries a points value. When it’s marked done — by the child or by a parent — those points are added to the member’s day, their day progress bar fills, and once everything for the day is finished they get a trophy and a congratulations message. Points feed the rewards the family sets up.
