The morning rush
Leo sees the dentist is at 9, Emma sees it's library day, and Dad sees he's on pickup. Nobody asked a single question.
The family wall display
The whole family on the same page.
Everyone's calendars, the chore chart, grocery lists, this week's dinners and your family photos, on one screen in the kitchen. One look on the way out the door and everybody knows what today holds, including whose turn it is to feed the dog.

- kin noun
- Your family. The people you belong to, from grandparents to the newest baby.
- dock noun
- The place you come back to, where everything gets loaded up and lined up for what's next.
- KinDock
- The spot on the wall where your family comes together: everyone's plans, chores, meals and photos in one place.
Everyone in the loop
No more "Nobody told me."
Phones keep plans in separate pockets. KinDock puts them on the wall where the whole family sees them together, kids and grown-ups alike, with no app to open and no account for anyone.
3:40 PM
After school
The kids check their own chore lists, find the note Mom left, and see soccer starts at 4:30. You get a quieter afternoon.
Sunday night
Planning the week
Gather at the board, look at the week together, pick the dinners and send the ingredients to the grocery list in one tap.
Anytime
Grandma's new photos
She adds pictures to the family's shared album, and they show up on your wall within the hour. Everyone sees them, every day.
Every person, their own color
Each calendar and to-do is matched to a family member, so you can tell whose event is whose from across the room.
Change it from any phone
Anyone on your Wi-Fi can add an event, a grocery item or a note. It's on the wall within seconds for everyone to see.
Kids included
Pictures for every chore and big touch targets mean the youngest can read the board, and the oldest can run it.
Chores & rewards
Kids don't need another reminder. They need a reason.
KinDock turns the chore chart into something kids walk up to on their own. Every chore checked off earns stars, the board cheers, and the stars add up to a reward the whole family can see coming.
They tap their own picture
Each child has a face or a fun avatar on the board. One tap opens their list for today, sorted into Morning, After school and Evening, with a picture for every chore so even non-readers know what's next.
They check it off, and the board celebrates
Tap "Make your bed" and it turns pink with a check mark, a cheer plays and confetti flies. Finish the whole list and the celebration gets bigger.
Stars add up all week
Every chore is worth 1, 2 or 3 stars. Their running total sits right on the board next to their name, so a sibling's lead is a little extra motivation.
They earn the reward you chose
Set a weekly goal like "20 stars = movie night" or "Pick Friday dinner". A progress bar shows exactly how close they are, and how many stars are left to go.
Emma's chores
0 of 4 done
stars this week
Goal6 more · Movie night
Tap a chore, just like on the board.
You set the rules
Pick which days each chore is due, the time of day, and how many stars it's worth. Chores for Mondays don't clutter Saturdays.
Say it out loud
With the optional speakerphone, "Emma made her bed" checks it off from across the kitchen. Voice is understood on the board itself.
Fair for every kid
Each child gets their own color, list and reward. Ages 4 and 14 can share one board without sharing one chart.
The real chore chart, right after two chores were checked off. Confetti and all.
Private by design
Your family's life is not our data.
Your schedule, your kids' names and photos, your chores and your notes are kept on the board in your home. There is no KinDock account and no KinDock cloud, so there is nothing of yours on our servers to sell, share or lose.
Stays in your home
- Family members, photos of the kids, chores and stars
- To-dos, grocery lists, meals and sticky notes
- Your shared-album photos, copied onto the board
- Everything you say to it: voice is understood on the board, and recordings never leave it
- Backups, as a file you download and keep
All the board fetches
- Weather for your town
- Your calendars, read straight from Google, Apple or Microsoft. KinDock can show them but never change them
- New photos from the shared albums you choose
- Software updates, checked once a day
No ads. No tracking. No selling your data, because we never have it.

Everything on one screen
The whole family's week, where everyone already walks past.
Calendars
Every calendar, one agenda
Mom's Google, Dad's iPhone, the school and the soccer team, each in its own color. Pick how many days ahead to show.
Family layout
A column for each person
Their photo, today's events, their to-dos and the notes left for them. Everyone finds their own day at a glance.
Lists
To-dos, groceries, Costco
Make as many lists as you like. Add from the board or any phone, and check things off in the store.
Meals
"What's for dinner?" answered
Plan the week, save family favorites and Taco Tuesdays. One tap sends the week's ingredients to the grocery list.
Photos
Your albums, always fresh
Show a Google Photos or iCloud shared album. Grandma adds pictures, and they appear on your wall within the hour.
Sticky notes
Notes that don't fall off the fridge
"Trash goes out tonight." Leave a colored note for one person or everyone, from the board or your phone.
Today card
A verse, a quote, a bit of history
Bible verse of the day, a quote, or what happened on this day, filtered to stay family-friendly.
Weather
Today plus 5 days ahead
Current conditions, the forecast, rain chances and severe-weather alerts, so nobody leaves without a coat.
Kitchen
Timers and a quiet night
Big kitchen timers, a screen that turns off on schedule at night and wakes when someone walks up or touches it.
Make it yours
Four layouts. Wide or tall. Your colors.
Family
Everyone gets a column with their photo, today's events, their to-dos and their notes. The Everyone column holds the shared lists and tonight's dinner.

Questions
Good questions, plain answers
Where is my family's information stored?
On the board in your home. KinDock has no accounts and no cloud servers, so your schedule, kids' names, photos, chores and notes are never uploaded to us. The board reads your calendars and shared albums directly from Google, Apple or Microsoft, the same services you already use.
Do I have to pay every month?
No. Chores and rewards, meal planning, lists, photos and updates are all included. There is no subscription.
Which calendars work?
Google Calendar, iPhone and iCloud calendars, Outlook and Microsoft 365, and any school, sports or church calendar with a "subscribe" or iCal link. Each one shows in its own color, and you can match a calendar to a person.
How old do kids need to be for the chore chart?
If they can tap a picture, they can use it. Every chore has a picture as well as a name, so pre-readers do fine. Older kids like seeing their stars climb toward a reward they picked.
Can the kids change the settings?
Set a PIN and only someone who knows it can change settings. Kids can still check off their chores, add to lists and leave notes on the board.
Does it need a touch screen?
No. A touch screen is best for the chore chart, but KinDock also works as a display on any TV or monitor, managed from your phone. Every list shows on the board without tapping.
What happens if the internet goes out?
The board keeps showing your photos, lists and chores, and catches up on calendars and weather when the internet comes back.
Can the whole family use the phone setup?
Yes. Anyone on your home Wi-Fi can open Setup and add it to their phone's home screen like an app. A to-do added on a phone shows on the board within seconds.
