What is the best app for organizing a busy family?
Sense is built specifically for busy families. Forward school emails and they become calendar events automatically. Share schedules with your whole family, plan meals, assign chores, and track reminders - all in one app. It works on phones and tablets, and syncs with Google Calendar.
Can Sense automatically parse school newsletters into calendar events?
Yes. Forward any school newsletter or email to your Sense address. Sense AI automatically parses the newsletter, extracts every date, event, field trip, permission slip, and early dismissal, then adds them to your family calendar. No more manually reading newsletters to find the dates that matter.
How do I share a calendar with my spouse and kids?
Everyone in your family gets the Sense app and joins your family. All events, reminders, and schedules are shared automatically. You can also connect existing Google or Apple calendars so everything shows up in one place.
How do I reduce the mental load of managing a family?
Sense takes the invisible work off your plate. Instead of holding everything in your head, forward emails and let Sense extract the details. It reminds you before deadlines, catches schedule conflicts, and makes your family's schedule visible to everyone - not just you.
Can I use Sense as a family display or kitchen hub?
Yes. Mount any tablet on your wall and turn on Sense Hub mode. It becomes an always-on family dashboard that rotates through your calendar, chores, reminders, and more. It dims at night and keeps everyone in sync at a glance.
Will my partner actually use this?
They don't have to change anything. You forward the emails, Sense processes them, and your partner sees what's happening when they open the app. No setup required on their end - just install and join your family.
What can the AI assistant in Sense do?
Ask it to create events, set reminders, suggest recipes, plan meals, help with homework, generate activity ideas, or tell a bedtime story. It knows your family's schedule and can answer questions like "what do we have this week?" or "when is picture day?"
Is Sense free? What does premium include?
Sense is free to start with a 5-day trial of all features. The free plan includes core calendar, lists, and email processing. Premium ($6.99/month) adds chores, meal planning, medication tracking, allowance, connected calendars, and unlimited AI chat.
Is my family's data private and secure?
Your data is never sold to advertisers. Emails are processed securely and not stored after extraction. You control what gets forwarded, and you can delete your account and all data at any time from settings.
