Setting up Habits & chores

The Habits tab gives every family member their own column of routines and chores — morning things, after-school things, and the weekly jobs — with satisfying animations when they get done. Habits are part of Plannie Premium.

Create a habit

Tap + in the header:

• Name and an optional emoji icon.
• Assign to one or more members — it appears in each of their columns.
• Time of day — Morning, Afternoon, Evening, or Chores.
• Every — how often it repeats, from a dropdown: Once, Daily, Weekly, Every 2nd week, Monthly, Quarterly, Every 6 months, or Yearly. Weekly and Every 2nd week add day-of-week picks; Monthly and the longer intervals add a Starting date (prefilled with today) — the first day it's due, and the date it comes back on each period.
• Stars per completion — None, 1, 2, 3, or 5 tickets for the member's reward balance. Pick None for a routine you want tracked but not rewarded: it saves like any other habit, and simply carries no star badge.

On an iPhone or iPad you can also add one by voice — "Hey Siri, add a chore in Plannie". See Using Plannie with Siri.

Completing habits

Tap the circle to check a habit off (tap again to undo). Each member's column has time-of-day filters with progress rings, and when someone finishes everything for the day, they get a full-screen celebration. Use the date pager to look at past or coming days.

A repeating habit appears on the day it's due — the weekday you picked, or its Starting date — and then stays on the board until someone checks it, so a Friday job left undone is still waiting on Saturday. Checking it off puts it away until the next day it's due, and a new due day arriving while it's still open never stacks up a second copy. Once habits show until they're done and then don't come back; Daily ones appear every day.

Completions are instant — there is no parent-approval step. Habits worth stars feed straight into Rewards.

Edit or delete

Swipe a habit (or hover on the web) for Edit and Delete. Deleting a repeating habit asks whether to remove just this once or the whole series.
