Weekly Celebration & Past Results

1

Watch the weekly celebration

When a week has ended, Home offers the family its Weekly Celebration: a full-screen recap with fun facts, each hero's good deeds shown large, the podium and the prizes. Tap Next or let it play by itself, pause it, or skip it. It is offered once for the whole family; after a month ends you also get a short Month in Review with facts and the champion.

Watch the weekly celebration
2

Look back at any week or month

On This Week and Monthly, use the arrows or the list under the title to open any finished week or month. You see the final ranking and the prizes as they were then, can watch that celebration again, and โ€” if you manage prizes โ€” hand out prizes, mark them as used and add comments there.

3

Deed multipliers

Parents can apply multipliers to specific deeds to boost the points earned.

4

Custom deed weighting

Assign custom weights to deeds based on effort or importance.

5

Waiting to be closed

If your family closes weeks manually (Family โ†’ Details, automatic closing off), a finished week or month shows as waiting to be closed: everyone sees the ranking so far, but it is not final. A parent who manages prizes presses Close the week; from then on the result is fixed, the prizes are handed out and the celebration is available.

FAQ & Troubleshooting

Can I add more than one co-parent?

Yes. Go to Family โ†’ Members and send as many invites as you need. Each person who joins becomes a co-parent.

When does the weekly podium reset?

At the end of the day you chose as your week start. You can change this day in Family โ†’ Details.

Can I delete a good deed after adding it?

Yes. Open the child's profile, tap the deed, and use the delete option.

What is the AI image for deeds?

When you log a deed, TinyHeroes automatically generates a fun illustration using AI. You can regenerate it or skip it.

How do I change the prize for 1st place?

Go to Prizes โ†’ Setup and tap Edit next to the prize slot. You must be the family admin to edit prizes.

Can children see the app?

Yes! Children can log in using their own account to view the podium, their deed history, and track their progress.
