Feature Request: “Up for Grabs” Jobs reassign when repeating
M
Michele
Currently repeating “up for grabs” jobs are claimed by a child and then they “own” the job from then on. Please provide the ability to have “up for grabs” jobs be claimed individually to give kids options and flexibility. For example, the dishwasher needs to be unloaded every day. I would like my kids to decide each day who is going to complete the chore and get paid for it.

Agree with this. This app is almost useless for my situation without this feature! Is there any plan to implement this?
Ryan Schenk
This needs to be implemented as well as an option to automatically return each new weekly occurrence back to the “Up for Grabs” pool or to have the chore reset for another child to claim.

Did anyone ever respond to this or is the answer always “thanks for your feedback, we’ll put it somewhere that nobody will ever see”?

Agree 100% with this.
Many similar recommendations about modifications to “up for grabs” chores have been in the past year.
Is this something your team is working on and is there a timeline for implementation?

Hello. I agree with these comments. We should be able to allow a repeat chore to be claimable by the first child who executes it at each reoccurrence. A permanently “grabbed” chore is mechanically the same as an assigned chore.
Let’s instead sprinkle some proactivity into our children and allow them to take on chores as they can manage them.
