Sound familiar?

Running a home is a lot of small questions.

What's for dinner. Who's picking up. Whose turn it is. What we need from the shop. Dott. answers them in one place, so fewer of them need asking.

Without a plan

  • Dinner gets decided at 6pm, every day
  • The shopping list lives in three people's heads
  • "Whose turn is it?" starts an argument
  • The week's appointments are in someone's phone
  • Chore charts on the fridge turn into a scoreboard

With Dott. Family & Meals

  • The week's meals planned once, on Sunday
  • The grocery list builds itself, sorted by aisle
  • Chores take turns on their own
  • Everyone's week on one page, a colour each
  • Nothing turns red. Missed chores just wait
New in version 3.1

The whole house sees its small wins.

Chores and routine steps are ticked on one page, with who did what today.

The whole house sees its small wins
  • Small wins for the whole house: the chores and routine steps ticked today, and who did them.
  • Routines open out on Today at home, so every step is ticked without leaving the page.
  • A shorter menu: the pages you open every day first, the rest one tap away.
  • A soft "+1 small win" when you tick. No streaks, and nothing turns red.
What's inside

Everything the home runs on.

01

The family week

School, activities, appointments and dinners for everyone, Monday to Sunday. Each person has a colour, so the week reads at a glance. Tap a name to see just their week.

02

Meal plan and recipes

Save your family's regulars once. Then planning a day is one tap: pick a recipe, or type a quick meal like "leftovers". Choose who's cooking. Next week, repeat last week in one tap.

03

A grocery list that writes itself

Ingredients from the week's meals add up and sort by aisle. "2 onions" and "1 onion" become 3. 300 g and 500 g of rice become 800 g. Tick items off in the shop, or copy the list into a message.

04

Chores that take turns

Every day, on certain days, or once a week on any day. Give a chore to two people and tick "take turns", and it rotates by itself. Nothing is ever marked late: a missed chore waits in "whenever you get to it".

05

Routines kids can tap

Morning and bedtime checklists with a picture for each step. Open one big on screen and let them tick it themselves. It starts fresh every day, with no streak to lose.

Lists and household info

Packing, school things, repairs, gift ideas. Plus the answers everyone keeps asking for: the Wi-Fi, bin day, the doctor, the school phone. Print it for the fridge or the babysitter.

New in version 3

The whole house, on the same page.

Nine new pages, free for everyone who already has Family & Meals.

01

What's for dinner? Sorted

Out of ideas? One tap picks from your own recipes. Another fills every empty dinner this week, and the grocery list updates itself.

Notes on the fridge

"Back at 6." "PE kit on Thursday." Short notes the whole house sees, from one person to another.

04

A fair share of the chores

Who did what over the last 30 days, counted from the chores you ticked. Not a scoreboard: a way to notice.

05

Pocket money they can see

A jar for each child: money in, money spent, and a goal to save for. Nothing is ever taken away as a punishment.

Pantry and grocery spend

Tap "running low" as you finish something and send it to the list. Note what the shop came to, once a week.

Questions

Good to know.

Is it a subscription?

No. You pay $18 once and keep the file. There's nothing to renew.

Can my partner use it too?

Not live. Dott. has no account and no cloud, so two devices don't update each other. Most families keep one plan and share the grocery list with the Copy button, or the week with Print. You can also move everything to another device with the backup file.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. Your download includes a link you open with your personal licence key. Open the link on your phone, type your licence key once, and add it to your home screen: it then opens like an app and works offline, with no unzipping. On a computer you can use the link too, or open the file itself.

Is it the same as the Dott. Planner?

No. The Dott. Planner is for your own days, habits and goals. Family & Meals is for running the home: the family week, meals, groceries and chores. They work side by side.

Where is my family's information stored?

Only in your browser, on your device. We never see it. Download a backup file now and then from Settings, and keep it somewhere safe.

Does it connect to Google Calendar?

Not live. You can export your family's events as a calendar file (.ics) and add them to Google, Apple or Outlook.

What if the file doesn't open?

Write to hello@dottshop.store. A person reads every message and will help you get it working.

No ticket numbers and no chatbot. This address goes to a real inbox, and a person reads every message.
