Welcome to the PlayPrep Beta 👋

PlayPrep is an activity planner built for parents, teachers, and homeschoolers. Think of it as a recipe manager for kids' activities — save crafts, field trips, and learning activities, track your supplies, and plan your week all in one place.

This is an early beta. Most core features are working, and we want to know what feels great, what's confusing, and what's missing. There are no wrong answers — your honest reaction is exactly what we need.

📦 Beta testing runs through end of April, with a full App Store launch planned for May. Please note that data added during the beta is stored locally and will not carry over — see the notice below for details.

How long will testing take? As little as 15 minutes to try the basics, or as long as a week if you want to really put it through its paces. Both are helpful.

💬 Join our Facebook beta group to share feedback, ask questions, and connect with other testers.

📦 Important: About your beta data

All data you add during the beta (activities, supplies, places, plans) is stored locally on your device only. It will not carry over to the full launch version of PlayPrep.

We are actively working on cloud backup and sync, which will be available at full launch in May. Once that's in place, your data will be saved to your account and carry over between devices and app updates.

For now, we recommend using the beta to explore features and give feedback rather than building out your full activity library. Thank you for understanding — your testing is helping us build something great! 🙏

Getting started

First steps

🚀 Onboarding

When you first open the app, you'll go through a short onboarding flow that asks about the ages of your kids and your interests. This helps PlayPrep suggest relevant activities to get you started.
