How to run a group challenge

A shared goal, like reading minutes or nature-walk miles: families log progress and everyone sees the total.

A challenge is a shared goal for a group over a few weeks: "Read 10,000 minutes this winter" or "Walk 100 miles of nature trails".

Start one (Leaders and Admins)

  1. Open the group's Challenges tab and Start a challenge.
  2. Name it, pick what you're counting (minutes, hours, pages, books, miles or times), and add a Group goal if you want a target for all families together.
  3. Pick when it starts and ends, and who it's for (Everyone or one Circle). Add details, like what counts or prizes.
  4. Tap Start the challenge.

Log your family's progress (parents)

While a challenge is on, type how many under Log your family's …, pick a student or Whole family, the day, and tap Log it. Open Your entries to see or remove what you've logged.

See how it's going

The total for all families shows at the top, with a bar toward the goal. Below it, each family's total, highest first. Finished challenges move to Finished.

Families see each other's totals, not which student logged what.
