About Fridgeworthy

We are parents with little ones in school, and we built the app we needed ourselves.

Every week the backpacks come home full. A permission slip, a fundraiser flyer, a picture day form, a note about early dismissal on a Wednesday three weeks out. The information is all there on paper. The problem is that it stays on paper until someone sits down and reads all of it, and that someone is usually already out of evening.

Fridgeworthy is the app that reads the stack for you. Scan the whole pile at once and it pulls out every date, deadline, and to-do, then sorts them by child so you can see the week at a glance instead of reconstructing it from a folder on the counter.

How we think about it

Paper first. Plenty of tools ask you to keep another calendar current. Fridgeworthy starts from the thing that already exists, which is the paper your kid hands you, and does the typing so you do not have to.

Both parents, one household. A date only one parent knows about is not really caught. Invite a co-parent and you share the same papers, dates, and to-dos, and one subscription covers everyone you invite.

Your family's papers are yours. We do not sell data and we never will. What we collect and why is written out plainly in the privacy policy, in the same language we would want to read.

Where it runs

Fridgeworthy is on iPhone, in the App Store, in the United States. There is a free tier you can use for as long as you like, and paid tiers for households scanning more. If you are wondering whether it handles the app your school actually posts in, we keep a growing shelf of guides for school and team apps covering exactly that.

We read every message that comes in and reply personally. If something is broken, or missing, or you just want to tell us what your school does that we have not thought about, get in touch.
