Description
Group Star Charts is an effective way to encourage good behavior using a simple and clear system of positive feedback based on awarding stars. The app's appearance and user interface is deliberately simple to make it easy to use and understandable by children of all ages. There is a row for each child which clearly shows the number of stars they have. Tap a row to add a star (up to 99 or a chart-specific target, if required). It's that easy. Tips to get the most out of a Group Star Charts: • Reward good behavior immediately so your child associates the awarding of a star with their behavior. • Don't take stars away. Rewarding positive behavior is more effective than punishing bad behavior. • For older children, setting a target number of stars to reach and sorting by star count can encourage healthy competition. • Create multiple charts for different behaviours or targets. • It's great for parents but can also be used by teachers or club leaders to track rewards for multiple groups of children. • Can also be used for adults, e.g. tracking scores while playing a board game. REVIEWS ======= ***** "Everything I have found until this app have been either overly-complicated or too narrow in focus (just specializing in chores for instance). The multiple chart option allows me to customize stars/points based on any category of work or behavior that I want and the simple interface makes on-the-go tracking a snap." - Androshay, USA. ***** "I use this app for several large group classes I teach & it's been insanely popular with the kids (ages 3-7). They BEG to be quizzed on material we've covered so they can earn 'points'! Love the 'bing' sound each point makes when you award them, which can be heard across the room & really excites everyone. :). Recent update allows for multiple charts, so I can use them for different classes. Awesome!" — Smokdrogi, USA.

I purchased this app with the intent that my family (linked through our Apple devices) would all be able to see the same information in the app. This is not the case. There is no login info, and hence no way to prompt the app to show the information within families. Only download this app if you ONLY want to be able to view the chart on one device!
I love it Thanks for the app
I was planning to use this app to manage my classes. If my suggestions below can be considered as good ideas for the next update, it will be a great pleasure and help me to use this app for further semesters. 1. Synced webpage (or link or student version app) for kids to check their points 2. Extract function to convert charts to excel or pdf files
I've been looking for a simple app to track chores and good behavior for my two daughters for months. Everything I have found until this app have been either overly-complicated or too narrow in focus (just specializing in chores for instance). The multiple chart option allows me to customize stars/points based on any category of work or behavior that I want and the simple interface makes on-the-go tracking a snap. My children redeem their stars for special treats or activities while others are redeemed for allowance. My only recommendation would be to make the decrement of stars as easy as the addition of stars without the extra steps of editing each category/kid with the super-sensitive slide rule style. Maybe also a custom star color option? Other than that, this app is exactly what I need! 4/1/17 - Updating this review to 5 stars with the new color-coding option and now that the +/- makes star count adjustment easier. Perfect app. Thanks for the updates!
I really like using this app for my 5-8 beginning band students. Sharing info to other devices would be a very useful feature though. Considering that this is a paid app, it would be good if the app was capable of more.
