Tockio is currently in beta. That means there may be some bugs or missing features — but it’s under active development, with new updates rolling out daily.

What is Tockio?

Tockio is a shared calendar designed specifically for families in British Columbia.
It coordinates schedules, activities, and responsibilities across parents, kids, and caregivers — all in one place.
This is an early release, so what you‘re seeing is the foundation of a broader vision: making shared family scheduling simple and better suited to real life.

Do both parents (or guardians) need to use it?

No, you can use it solo.
You can set up profiles for other family members as “dormant” accounts. They can join later and claim their profile if they want.

Can I invite others (e.g., my co-parent, babysitter)?

Yes. Tockio makes it easy to involve others — co-parents, babysitters, grandparents, etc.
You can assign tasks and events to them. They‘ll get their own profile, and can create a full account if they want.

Is it free? Will it cost money later?

Tockio is free to use — and most features will always be free.
In the future, I might introduce optional paid upgrades or ads.

Is it safe and private? Who can see my data?

Yes. Privacy is core to Tockio‘s design.
Data is securely stored and never shared without your explicit permission.
I‘ve been building software for over 20 years, with a strong focus on security best practices. That experience has shaped how Tockio handles your information.

What if I stop using it — do I lose my data?

You‘ll be able to export your data at any time.
If you ever decide to move on, I‘ll help you transfer your calendar into another app.

Can kids use it too?

Yes — in fact, that‘s one of the main reasons I built Tockio.
I believe kids should be empowered to manage their own schedules and build independence.
Tockio helps answer their daily questions like:

Will this replace my current calendar?

Eventually — that‘s the goal.
For now, Tockio works alongside your existing calendar. You can use both side-by-side until you feel Tockio is a full replacement.

Is there an app for tablets or phones?

Not yet, although that‘s the next logical step.
Currently there's just the mobile-optimized web app (tockio.com) which works on tablets and phones.
Once there's sufficient demand, I'll build apps for Android and iOS.

What makes this different from Google Calendar or Cozi?

Google Calendar is fine for meetings and Zoom links — but not for helping your kid answer, “When does Mom get home from her trip?”
Most family calendar apps are just wrappers around Google Calendar.
Tockio is different. It‘s designed from a child‘s perspective — and a parent‘s need to track family life:

It‘s built for real-life family coordination, not meeting invites.

Why is it in beta? What does that mean for me?

Beta means it‘s still growing, and your feedback shapes that growth.
You‘ll see frequent improvements and updates — and your experience helps guide the roadmap.
There‘s no risk of losing data. Just expect a few rough edges until they're smoothed out.

How can I give feedback or report bugs?

I‘d love your input.
Tap the feedback button at the bottom of any page, or email me directly at support@tockio.com.
Your feedback genuinely shapes what comes next — so please get in touch.

Who built this and why?

I‘m a software developer and parent of two school-aged kids.
I‘ve built and sold software companies before, and now I want to make an app that families will actually use — something well-designed and genuinely helpful.
