Poppins

One app for the whole house. None of it for sale.

Meals and recipes, the family calendar, tasks and lists, and an assistant that works across all of them. Your household's information is never sold, never used for ads, and never used to train models.

Everything your household runs on, in one private app.

The recipe app, the to-do list, the family calendar and the assistant, replaced by one app the whole household shares.

The household app that minds its own business.

It helps with the routine work of a house: dinners, the calendar, the lists. It asks for what that work needs and nothing more, and what it learns about your household is used for your household and nothing else.

What it does

Four apps' worth of work, in one

The recipe app, the to-do list, the family calendar and the assistant, built as one thing for a household rather than four things for one person each.

  • Meals and recipes

    A week of dinners every Saturday, from your own recipe box.

    • Save recipes from any site, or photograph a cookbook
    • Approve, swap, or say what's wrong in plain words
    • The grocery list follows, sorted by aisle
  • The family calendar

    One calendar for the house, shared or private event by event.

    • Bring events over from everyone's phones
    • Photograph a school flyer to add the season
    • Reminders for whoever wants one
  • Tasks and lists

    Who's doing what, and what still needs buying.

    • Hand a task to someone and hear back when it's done
    • Shopping research with live prices from several stores
    • A vote for everyone who has a say
  • An assistant for all of it

    Ask in plain words, and it reads and changes the household's own data.

    • Swap a dinner, add a task or an event
    • Find recipes, or what's on in town this weekend
    • Shows what it did, and you can change it
  • On the kitchen wall

    Mount an iPad and pin the family calendar where everyone can see it.

    • The week at a glance, for the whole house
    • iPhone home screen widgets, too
    • No extra device to buy if you have an iPad
Better together

What separate apps can't do

Because it's one app, each part knows about the others.

  • The plan knows what the week looks like

    A night with something on until seven gets a short cook, or no cook. The planner reads how busy each evening is — the times, never what you're doing.

  • Today, in one view

    Tonight's dinner, the day's events and everyone's tasks on one timeline, in the app and on the home screen.

  • An occasion brings its own list

    A cookout or a birthday gets a grocery list of its own, and what it needs can start the shopping research.

  • Requests shape the week

    “Use up the cilantro” or “Thursday off” goes in the week's requests, and the dinner plan follows them.

  • Your inbox, only if you want it

    Connect Gmail or Outlook and the plans it finds arrive as one item to approve. Off until you turn it on, and message bodies are never stored.

Privacy

Built for your household, not for harvesting it

General assistants want your inbox, your files and your history. This one needs your recipes, your calendar and your lists, and it keeps them to that job.

Children's information gets particular care

Children don't have accounts. A parent adds a name and food preferences so the plans account for them, and that is used for your household's plans and nothing else. It is never sold, never shared for marketing, and never used to train anything.

  • Never sold

    Not to advertisers, not to data brokers, not to anyone.

  • No ads

    Nothing in the app is an ad, and nothing you add is used to target one.

  • Not used to train models

    The models that run the assistant don't learn from your household.

  • Only what the work needs

    Calendar, email and location are each off until you turn them on.

  • Yours to delete

    Ask, and the household's information is gone.

  • Measured, not watched

    We count how things are used so we can improve them, never what you've written.

How it works

A week with it

  1. Saturday morning

    The week arrives

    Dinners planned, with a push to say so.

  2. Over the weekend

    Approve or swap

    Keep a night, change it, or take it off.

  3. Before the shop

    One list

    Every approved dinner, merged by aisle.

  4. Every day

    Today, named

    Dinner, events and tasks, with reminders.

Getting it

An iPhone app, with an iPad on the wall if you want one. One person subscribes, then adds the rest of the household by email.
