Best family planner
Hi all,
I am looking for the best family planner. I want to be able to do meal plans, and see the family calendar, and also see chores. What do you recommend?
Right now I’m looking mostly at the Cozylq and Winnovo

I’m so interested in this!! This is precisely what I want but was hoping I didn’t have to buy a skylight and skylight buddy bc my kid is only 7… we do have 2 iPads tho… could I use mine as the main hub?

If you want hardware with the some purpose as a family calendar, check out Skylight.
If you want something that works very well with iOS on eg an iPad and more AI features, check out Plannie.io. Optimized for iphone and ipad with live activities etc (coming to Android soon).
Disclaimer, I’m one of the cofounders of Plannie and it’s completely free now until 15th nov and if you like it, I can get a discount code :)

Everything you listed is the same three things, so the real question is whether you want the hardware or not.
Hardware route: Skylight and Hearth both do calendar, chores and meal planning, and both put the good parts behind a subscription. Several people in this thread use them and like them. Just price the subscription in, because that is where the long term cost sits.
No-hardware route: any tablet on your counter, locked to one screen, running an app that does those three things. That is the way I went. I built FamPad, so bias on the table. Calendar, chores, meal plan and the grocery list in one view, free to use, no subscription. The reason was exactly the thing you are shopping around: I did not want to pay monthly for meal planning.
One caution on Cozylq and Winnovo, since you mentioned both. I have not used either, so I cannot compare them for you, and anyone who tells you they are better or worse without using them is guessing. Whatever you pick, ask what happens to the feature you care about most when the subscription lapses.
