Frequently asked questions

How do I connect my Google Calendar?

Open the Family Check-In channel on your Roku, go to Settings, and follow the instructions to connect your calendar. You'll visit familycheckin.org/link on your phone or computer to complete authorization.

Why aren't my chores showing up?

Check that:

• You've selected the correct calendar in Settings
• Events are tagged with the correct format (e.g., "Take out trash [John]" assigns the chore to John)
• The event's end time determines when a chore is "due". If the end time is in the past, the chore is considered due. When all due chores are completed, the column header displays its configured color.
• Events are scheduled for today
• Your Roku is connected to the internet

How do I reset my calendar connection?

Go to Settings in the app and select "Clear Authentication". This will remove the stored OAuth tokens and allow you to reconnect.

Can I use multiple calendars?

Yes! You can configure separate calendars for chores, family events, and meals in the Settings menu.

How much does it cost?

Family Check-In offers a 7-day free trial, then $5/month for continued access.
