Family Calendar App
The family calendar app built for how families plan today.
Famnly is the shared family calendar that puts every family member, pet, and place in their own color-coded column — with push-to-talk AI event capture, shared grocery lists, meal plans, and chore tracking.
Why families choose Famnly
A shared family calendar, built around the family — not the calendar.
Everyone on one screen
Every family member, pet, and place gets their own color-coded column. One look at the week tells you who's where — no reading required.
Push-to-talk event capture
Hold the mic, say it, done. No other family calendar app has voice event capture — Famnly Sidekick does it on-device so audio never leaves your phone.
Syncs with the calendars you already use
Two-way sync with Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, and any ICS feed. Work and family life in one view, no app-switching.
Shared family calendar
Color columns everyone can read at a glance.
Flow view lays the week out day by day so you can read the plan. Tap once and it compacts — every family member, pet, and place in their own column, all on one screen. Swipe through day, month, and year when you want to zoom in or out.
Family events
Family events that act like a plan — not a time slot.
Locations with maps, prep tasks, comments between family members, linked shopping lists, and push reminders for everyone who needs them. Confirm the pickup time, the drop-off location, who's bringing the cleats — right inside the event.
Built for the whole family
More than a shared calendar.
Shared grocery lists & AI meal planner
Build grocery lists the whole family can edit, link them to events, and let Famnly generate a week of meals with an automatic shopping list. Focus mode keeps your screen on and sorts by aisle while you shop.
Chore tracker with rewards & allowance
Assign chores with scheduled reminders. Kids earn points for completing tasks and spend them in a rewards marketplace you control. Hit 80% completion, allowance pays out automatically — one fewer negotiation.
Family vacation planner
Map out school-free periods, vacation blocks, trips, and childcare coverage on a visual timeline. Add pet care, share notes, and finalize when everyone agrees.
Co-parent friendly
Famnly Pro lets you belong to up to three calendar groups — one private, one shared with a co-parent for the kids' schedule. A neutral base for collaborative co-parenting. Why we built it this way →
Child accounts, done right
Kids see their own week and know who's picking them up, without seeing the whole household calendar. Fewer “Dad, what are we doing?” texts.
Themes & proper dark mode
Choose from multiple themes and toggle between light and dark mode. Your family calendar, your style.

Family calendar FAQ
Questions families ask about Famnly.
What is a family calendar app?
A family calendar app is a shared scheduling tool that keeps every member of a household in sync. Parents, kids, and co-parents see the same events, activities, and reminders — usually with color-coding per person, sync to work calendars, and extras like chore tracking or shared grocery lists. Famnly is built around that shared view, with a column per family member, pet, and place.
How does Famnly compare to Cozi?
Cozi has been around since 2005 and covers the basics — shared calendar, grocery lists, recipes. Famnly is a newer take built for 2026: push-to-talk AI event capture, animated per-person color columns, dark mode with multiple themes, a chore tracker with a rewards marketplace and monthly allowance rules, and pet and place columns. Famnly Pro is also cheaper than Cozi Gold and includes the whole family on one subscription.
Does Famnly sync with Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple Calendar?
Yes. Famnly Pro imports and syncs events from Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, and any ICS feed. Work and family life show up side by side so you can spot conflicts without switching apps.
Is Famnly free?
Famnly is free to start. Famnly Pro unlocks unlimited family members, calendar sync, chore tracking with allowance, AI meal planning, vacation planner, pet and place columns, and more for $3.99 per month or $24.99 per year — one subscription covers your whole family.
Can my whole family use one subscription?
Yes. One Famnly Pro subscription covers your partner, kids, and anyone else you invite to your family group. No per-seat fees, no upsells to see next month.
How is Famnly different from a shared Google Calendar?
Google Calendar is a generic calendar you can share. Famnly is built around the shape of family life: a column per person, pet, and place; push-to-talk event capture; shared grocery lists linked to events; chore tracking with points and allowance; a vacation planner; and kid-friendly child accounts. Google Calendar still works great as an input — Famnly syncs with it — but the planning happens in Famnly.
Does the family calendar work on iPhone, iPad, and Android?
Famnly is available on iOS today (iPhone and iPad). Android is on the roadmap. If you want an email when Android lands, drop us a note via the support page.
Can kids have their own accounts?
Yes. Child accounts let kids see their own week, check what's coming up, and know who's picking them up without seeing the whole household calendar. They can also earn points for chores and redeem them in a rewards marketplace you control.
Can co-parents share a family calendar in Famnly?
Yes. Famnly Pro lets you belong to up to three calendar groups, so you can keep your household calendar private and run a neutral shared one for the kids' schedule with a co-parent. Every event has its own comment thread for confirming pickups, drop-offs, and who's bringing the cleats.
Is my family's data private?
Your calendar data is yours. Push-to-talk voice input is transcribed on your phone — audio never leaves your device. Read the full privacy policy for the specifics on what's stored and how.
Can I import events from another calendar app?
Yes. Sync Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, or any ICS feed and your existing events appear in Famnly automatically. You can keep using your old calendar as an input while doing family planning in Famnly.
How do I add events with my voice?
Famnly Sidekick is the push-to-talk AI event capture built into the app. Press and hold the mic, say what's coming up ("dance lesson for Ella tomorrow at 5"), and Famnly creates the event — dated, assigned to the right person, reminder set. It's the first family calendar app with push-to-talk event capture.
Your family calendar, finally in sync.
Free to start. See pricing — available on iOS.
