What “connecting your avatar to the real world” means
Here, the connection is practical: your avatar appears alongside plans you enter for your actual day. You can organize tasks, events and bills, personalize Planner members, and use Avatar Glass as a nearby companion. Your character does not independently complete or verify real-world work.
Start with the 2D avatar editor if you want to design a character first. Planner member appearances are separate from your main Studio look, so choose the right person before customizing their Planner character.
A simple routine to try today
- Open Planner and choose yourself or the relevant family member.
- Add one concrete task, such as preparing a school bag, and give it a useful time.
- Add an event or bill only if it belongs on today’s schedule.
- Use a note for a short reminder that does not need its own event.
- Complete the real task, then record completion in Planner.
- Check the relevant progress or rewards view and take a short character or mini-game break if you want one.
This makes the character a familiar companion to your routine. Discovery XP for exploring features and game rewards are separate from Planner task completion and report-card grades.
Choose a character before organizing your day
Gremlin, Cat, Unicorn and Fae are character choices in the Studio. Fae has its own modular hair, face, tail and clothing selections. Keep the main Studio look and a person’s Planner appearance distinct: use the relevant Save control for the place you are editing.
Start with your main avatar
Open Avatar Studio to choose your character, clothing and Familiar. Your main appearance carries into the wider avatar world. Tap the name tag beside the heart to rename it. Preview controls fade to 35% opacity until used and stay fully visible for three seconds after tapping.
Turn on Smart Look when you want variety
Tap the heart and open its information section. Smart Look can choose compatible clothing you have unlocked for the season and time of day. Nighttime runs from 9 pm to 7 am on your device. Outfit and glass-bubble options are separate, so enable only the ones you want. Keep look, Try another and Restore saved help you control the result; manual outfit changes pause automatic styling.
Seasonal music support is prepared for future tracks. Seasonal songs have not been released yet.
Give each family member their own Planner avatar
Open Planner. Home displays the family, while selecting an individual shows that person’s avatar and Familiar. Tap the checkmark beside the avatar and choose Customize. On Home, choose the person first if there is more than one. Finish with Save to person to preserve that person’s appearance separately from your main Studio character.
Schedule report cards and understand grades
Open Report cards and create a weekly or monthly schedule for a person or everyone. Choose the time and time zone and enable automatic opening. When Planner is open or you return, due cards appear one at a time. The X closes the current card; Skip all dismisses the remaining queue without deleting the cards from history.
Children’s cards use tasks or chores and agenda categories. Adults also have a Bills grade. Grades reflect recorded completion for the reporting period, not a judgment of the person: excused tasks are excluded, pending reviews are not complete, and categories without assigned work show N/A.
Read the Rewards strip
Each sticker shows how many were earned out of the available task opportunities. Assign a reward sticker to a task to connect it to those counts. Extra stickers given independently are shown as bonuses. If task history changes, use Update from task history to create a corrected report while retaining the original.
Check weather without constant refreshing
The weather card shows location, temperature, conditions, chance of rain, high and low, and wind in mph. Tap the card to change location or weather settings. Weather refreshes on return to Planner and every 15 minutes while the page is visible. US National Weather Service data supplies recent observations when available; otherwise the display labels the forecast. A recent cached reading can remain visible during a temporary connection failure.
Preview reminders and enjoy character reactions
Open Reminder sound, choose whistle, chime, piano, sparkle or soft, then tap Preview before Apply. Volume, mute and quiet hours are device settings. Tap Planner once to enable audio. Reminders check due or overdue events while Planner is open; they do not send background push notifications.
Tap empty space around the Planner characters for occasional wake-up, surprised or playfully annoyed reactions. Other scenes include a screen knock, bird stretching and grooming, and weather-related umbrella or puddle effects. Effects respect reduced motion and pause when hidden.
Bring your character into Avatar Glass
The floating avatar button opens a compact companion with Companion, Studio and Room panels. Expand it to edit your look or Room, use quick Planner and reward widgets, and play the care mini-games. The living sky follows your saved weather location, and interrupted edits can be resumed from a local draft.
