For families, not project managers

Your family,
in sync.

Who's doing what, what's for dinner, what's on this week — in one place everyone can actually use. Even the seven-year-old.

Coming to iOS & Android See how it works

Free to start. No ads, ever. Your family's data is never sold.

How it works

One hive, not five apps.

A recipe knows its ingredients. Your grocery list knows the aisles. The week knows who's home. Hive Home is what happens when those finally talk to each other.

To-dos anyone can grab

Assign a chore, or leave it in the pool for whoever gets there first. Recurring jobs come back on their own.

Routines that run themselves

Morning, bedtime, homework. Step by step, so nobody has to be reminded three times.

A calendar everyone sees

One shared week, with Google Calendar syncing both ways. Private things stay private.

Meals, planned in a tap

Put a recipe on Thursday from the recipe itself. Paste a link and it imports, ingredients and all.

A list in aisle order

It learns how your store is laid out and sorts itself to match. Rearrange it once; it remembers.

Drops kids actually want

One currency, earned for helping out, spent on real rewards you set. Nothing ever takes them away.

Permissions, in plain words

Connecting Google Calendar

Hive Home has its own shared household calendar. Connecting a Google account is optional — the app works fully without it — and you can disconnect at any time from Settings, which revokes our access immediately.

When you connect an account, Hive Home asks for two Google Calendar permissions, and uses them for exactly this:

  • See the list of your calendars. So you can choose which ones to bring into the family view. Most people share a family calendar and keep their work one to themselves. We read the list only — we never create, rename or delete calendars.
  • See and change events on the calendars you pick. Events from those calendars appear in your household's shared view, and events you create in Hive Home are added to the one Google calendar you nominate, so they show up on your other devices too. We only edit or remove events that Hive Home created — events that came from Google Calendar are never modified by us.

Calendar data is never sold, never shared with third parties, and never used for advertising. Access tokens are encrypted before they are stored. Full detail is in our Privacy Policy.
