Secret Mission.
Household chores, recast as classified operations. Parents become handlers. Children become agents. Everyone earns their ranks.
The briefing
Getting a six-year-old to tidy their room is a negotiation. Getting Agent Nightshade to complete Operation Clear Skies — with a ticking countdown and a rank on the line — is something else entirely.
Secret Mission wraps everyday tasks in a full theatrical spy narrative: dramatic incoming transmissions, voice-read briefings, ranks from Recruit to Director, badges, streaks, and dossiers worth printing out.
Everything runs on the device. No accounts. No internet connection required. No data collected, ever.
What's inside
Theatrical briefings
Every mission arrives as a dramatic transmission with tailored narrative, optional countdown timer, and Lock Screen presence via Live Activities.
Three reading levels
Briefings adapt to each agent's reading ability. Early, Developing, and Confident Reader tiers keep the story age-appropriate.
Ranks & badges
Nine ranks from Recruit to Director. Earn badges for streaks, category mastery, speed runs, and milestones. Create custom badges for your family.
Mission chains
Build morning routines, after-school sequences, and bedtime checklists as chains of linked missions that auto-advance.
Co-op missions
Deploy one mission to multiple agents. Each gets their own briefing and earns full credit independently — no racing, no competition.
Photo evidence
Agents can attach photos to completed missions with classified sticker overlays — TOP SECRET, CLASSIFIED, MISSION COMPLETE.
Custom rewards
Set up real-world rewards your agents can earn. Ice cream trips, screen time, park visits — whatever works for your family.
Printable dossiers
Export any agent's full career as a themed PDF dossier. Fridge-worthy. Great for wall-mounted recognition.
Voice, sound & haptics
Optional read-aloud briefings, ambient music that ducks politely around voice lines, and satisfying haptic feedback throughout.
Seasonal operations
The app shifts with the seasons. Winter Ops, Summer Strike, Shadow Protocol for Halloween, Operation Jingle for Christmas.
Home Screen widget
At-a-glance agent stats on the Home Screen — rank, active missions, streak, total completions.
Siri Shortcuts
"Hey Siri, check agent status in Secret Mission." Quick status, streak, and mission checks without opening the app.
Built the right way
▸ Our promise
Secret Mission is fully offline. No accounts, no cloud sync, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking of any kind. Every photo, every codename, every badge stays on your device.
We designed Secret Mission this way deliberately. Children's data deserves the highest possible standard of protection, and the simplest way to keep it safe is to never collect it in the first place.
One purchase, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases. Parents control access via a 4-digit PIN. The app works identically in airplane mode — because it doesn't need anything else.
Questions
What age is Secret Mission designed for?
Secret Mission is designed for children aged roughly 5–11, with three reading proficiency levels that adapt the narrative to each agent. Older children and tweens often engage with the app too — the spy theming and rank progression appeal across the range.
Does it require the internet?
No. Secret Mission is fully offline. There are no accounts, no cloud services, no external APIs. It works identically in airplane mode.
Can I use it for multiple children?
Yes. Create a profile for each agent with their own codename, avatar, reading level, and independent progression. Co-op missions can be deployed to multiple agents at once.
Are there in-app purchases?
No. Secret Mission is a one-time purchase. No subscriptions, no unlockable content behind additional payment, no advertising.
How is my family's data protected?
All data stays on your device. Nothing is transmitted, collected, or stored off-device. The app has no network connectivity. Parent settings are gated behind a 4-digit PIN stored securely in your iPhone's Keychain.
When will it be available?
