Is there a way to make the background transparent on the auto-entities cards? I have tried card-mod and its not working. Thanks in advance!
I installed and configured the integration. But with every reboot of my server the point get reset to zero. Did I do something wrong? How do I fix this?
I have just installed the integration and this dashboard, seem to be doing exacly what I need.
I saw in the documentation that we can exclude labels, but how can I show chores with a specific label/labels? For example I would like to have a card with chores in my āKitchenā dashboard, or āCoffee Machineā chores displayed in a card with information about the coffee machine. I apply multiple labels to each chore and now they appear multiple times in the Chores card.
Thanks!
Thanks for the great work on this. Iāve set up a basic set of core chores for my two kids and have been playing around with it. Seemless set up so far. I do have one question though. If a chore is accidentally approved, is it possible to āundoā the approval? What are the steps to do that? Thanks!
@djvj1 Any chance you can post your full yaml code? Iām receiving the same error that @kdriscoll1960 has and am having trouble following your directions.
I used notepad++ to tab everything over once and add the above code to my dashboard but still receive an error.
I would like to send an actionable notificaiton to my kids phone (with HA Companion app) every afternoon, with current status of choores. But I have no idea how to set this up.
A notification that looks something like this would be nice:
1 Choore overdue
2 Chores pending
3 Chores complete
Action 1 - Go to Kids own chores tab in HA Companion app.
Action 2 - Remind me again in X time.
Any tips?
Hello,
I have got this up and running but i dont see any way to approve chores. As a novice can anyone help?
I get the kid showing and the chores assigned to them. You can press to accept the chores but you can not approve them. Any ideas?
Thanks
Hey did you find a solution to this? I would like to use some of the pre-built cards but with only some labels. Sounds like a similar issue. In my use case Iād like to split out all of the ābonusā or āextraā chores from the normal routines ones.
Did you find a solution for this? I have the same issue as you, especially for things like garbage day or cleaning.
Appologies if I missed it but alot of info to comb through. Is there a way to trigger an event when a reward is redeemed? Redeem Xbox ā turn Xbox on. (The xbox is sitting behind one of the amazon outlets
same issue here as these other two. @KEDEM @djvj1
v3.0 trying to update to v3.1 currently but itās not working in HACS
nevermind. already had v3.1 (opened an issue for that [ISSUE] Manifest.json in 3.1 source zip still has v3.0 Ā· Issue #227 Ā· ad-ha/kidschores-ha Ā· GitHub)
went to v4.0 still same blank approval. (opened issued [ISSUE] Blank chore approval Ā· Issue #228 Ā· ad-ha/kidschores-ha Ā· GitHub)
response from ccpk1
āThis is a dashboard issue related the chore name you used. Edit the chore in the integration configuration and remove any special characters and dashes from the name, it should resolve it. I the current release, it is unfortunately a very hack way to get chores automatically show up in the dashboard. This will be resolved in the next release.ā
My chore is named vacuum. Soā¦?

Hey, so I have noticed that if the user logged into the device is not an Admin then the chores do not register as clicked, when I make the generic account an admin then it works.
is this by design? I donāt want to have my generic tablets with admin access, call me OTT RE security or just a control freak 
Yes it is by design, but you are missing the step of associating that generic ha user account with the kid(s). See here for clear instructions. Access Control: Overview & Best Practices Ā· ad-ha/kidschores-ha Wiki Ā· GitHub

Thanks, i knew i missed something
Iāve been reading through the threads but did not see this. Can parents complete chores?
Does anyone have any tips for how to best integrate this for two kids using the same tablet / user thing? iām new to Home Assistant but have this up and running just fineā¦ besides being able to easily have two kids using the same thing.
also, is there a way to reset a kid and their chores completely back to zero? and/or unapprove chores if they were accidentally approved?
The recommended solution is creating a simple non-admin user account that is logged into those shared devices and linked with each kid in kidschores. See the kiosk mode - Access Control: Overview & Best Practices Ā· ad-ha/kidschores-ha Wiki Ā· GitHub
As for resetting a kid chore counts, it isnāt easily possible now, but coming in the next release.
Dashboard worked OK with Kidschores 0.3.0 - but after upgrading HA to 2026.2.x and Kidschores to 0.5.0b3 (only version working with HA 2026.2), the dashboard is quite limited, probably due to the change in the naming of sensors, buttons etc.
Has a new release been planned, which will be updated to the new naming standard ?
The 0.3.x dashboards are incompatible with 0.5.0. You can go into general options in the integration configuration and use the manage dashboard option to generate new dashboards and views.

I am assuming that you are all set now. If not, this is what you need to do.
a) Create new dashboard
b) At the top right corner, click the pencil icon to edit the dashboard
c) Towards the left of the screen, click on the pencil to the right of āunnamed viewā
d) The āview configurationā window will pop up.
e) Click on the 3 dots at the top right corner of the window and select āEdit in Yamlā
f) Remove all the existing yaml configs, then paste the yaml code from the github page
g) Replace Kid_name and Kidname with childās name
h) Save.
