Kids check in, hatch critters, try skill tools, head out on real-world quests and talk to the grown-ups who love them, all in a space they make their own.
See a day in the appKids: a trusted adult gave you your username. Forgot it? Ask them; they can reset it in a few seconds.
Maya is 8. Here's what her space looks like from morning to bedtime.
Maya taps a face and a couple of words. It takes about 20 seconds, and her critter cheers her on. Older kids get sliders, sleep and a soundtrack of the day.
Every check-in, tool and to-do gives hearts. Hearts help eggs hatch, and every egg has a new critter inside. Miss a day? Nothing is lost, and her critter is always happy to see her.
Spelling test tomorrow? The worry goes in the Worry Jar so it can wait while she plays. There are 60+ tools for worry, anger, focus, friends, sleep, school and more.
Quests send her outside: find something yellow, give a high five, take a walk that warms up an egg. No maps, no location, no strangers.
Some things are easier to type than to say. In Mom & Me, Maya picks "tonight", and Mom gets a gentle heads-up with tips on how to listen. It works for dads, grandparents and guardians too.
Can we talk at bedtime? Something happened at recess.
Tip for Mom: listen first, ask "do you want help or just a hug?"
Of course. I'm really glad you told me.
Doing one small thing keeps her streak going, and shields save it on busy days. Tomorrow she picks up right where she left off.
Words, looks and privacy change as kids grow, so a 15-year-old never feels like they're using a little kid's app.
Big buttons, read-aloud, picture passwords

My SpaceCalm look, companion optional
My Own KeyA 6-year-old's space is open to family so they can help. By 13 the journal and chats are theirs, with a level-up agreement the family signs together. A safety net sends family a gentle heads-up on a really hard day, without ever showing what was written.
Check in, use their tools, journal privately, chat with their trusted adults, and earn streaks and badges.
Set it up yourself for free, or join with a worker's code. See what fits your kid's age and get a gentle heads-up on hard days.
Social workers, therapists, case managers and school counselors assign topics, plan sessions and see progress.
See team engagement and open safety flags, never journal or chat content.
988 is always one tap away, and the app never pretends someone is watching live.
Joy Chaser Connect is a skills and connection tool. It is not a medical record and it is not monitored around the clock. In an emergency call 911. For crisis support call or text 988.
