Getting started

Two minutes to harmony

Step one

01. Secure pairing

Install the app on both devices and link them instantly using a secure six-digit code. The connection is encrypted and tamper-resistant.

Step two

02. Custom schedules

Define specific chores like sweeping or dog walking, then set automatic lock schedules. The child's device locks completely when chore time begins.

Step three

03. Photo-verified unlock

To regain access, your child must submit a real-time photo of their completed work through the app. Fake uploads and gallery photos are blocked. Once you approve the photo proof, their phone unlocks instantly.

Tamper-proof design

Built to resist clever bypasses

We designed Chore-Lock with deep system integration. Kids cannot uninstall the app, force-close the lock screen, or bypass the gatekeeper. Emergency calls remain active, but games and social media stay locked until the physical work is approved.

Common questions

Clear answers for parents

Can they bypass the lock? No. Chore-Lock utilizes advanced administrative permissions that block uninstallation, safe-mode bypasses, and task-killing apps. The lock remains absolute until your dashboard sends the secure approval signal.

What happens in an emergency? Emergency calling and essential safety contacts are always white-listed and accessible. Your child can always reach you, even when their device is fully locked for chores.
