Wave 1
Welcome to Ziggy!
We’re excited to share Ziggy with you and your family. Right now, the app only includes the core functionality of Chores and Rewards, but over the next few weeks we’ll keep improving it until it becomes an app you love 😍.
Here’s what to expect during this testing phase that we call Wave 1:
Timeline
Wave 1 will run for 8 weeks, split into two parts to respect the holiday break:
Part 1: November 10th to December 5th
Part 2: January 12th to February 6th
What to expect each week
Week 1: Ramp-up. This is the week to tackle onboarding, setup, and bug fixes.
Week 2: Polish. We’ll focus on improvements to the existing features based on your early use.
Weeks 3-8: New weekly features! Every Monday, we’ll release the most requested feature from the previous week.
Feedback and check-ins
You can reach us anytime via WhatsApp for questions, issues, or ideas. We’ll also schedule three super-quick 10-minute check-ins with each family:
Weeks 2-3: First call (initial impressions)
Weeks 5-6: Second call (what’s missing/what to improve)
Weeks 7-8: Third and last call (one-month experience and next steps)
No prep needed! Just your real experience.
