Setting Up Assignments
Assignments are how Rally turns chores and study time into spendable coins. Here's how to build, assign, and approve them.
What an assignment is
An assignment is any activity you want a child to do — homework, chores, reading, practice — tied to a coin reward. Assignments can be one-time or recurring on a schedule (e.g. every weekday, or Saturdays only), and are the primary way kids earn the coins they spend on screen time.
Creating an assignment
From a child's profile, add an assignment with:
- Title and description — what the child needs to do.
- Schedule — one-time, or recurring on specific days.
- Coin reward — how many coins it's worth on completion.
- Bonus conditions — optional extra coins for things like finishing early or hitting a streak.
How kids submit completions
Kids see their assigned assignments on their own portal and mark them done when finished. Some assignments support a photo submission as evidence — useful for chores that are hard to verify remotely.
Approving completions
Submitted assignments show up in your Pending Approvals panel. Approve or deny with one tap from the web dashboard or the mobile app. Premium plans can also configure auto-approval rules for trusted, low-risk assignments so coins are awarded the moment a kid marks something done.
Editing and removing assignments
Changing an assignment's schedule or reward only affects future occurrences — past completions and the coins they already earned are preserved. Removing an assignment stops it going forward without erasing your child's completion history.
