This article gives a practical overview of the main things your family can manage in the Nori app.
Overview
The Nori app is the main mobile place for your family to set up Nori, manage daily plans, and keep shared information in sync.
The app can be used on its own, while the Nori hardware gives your family a shared home screen for the moments when everyone is together. Together, the app and hardware keep plans, tasks, meals, shopping lists, recipes, photos, and AI-created items connected across home and on the go.
Nori is built around a family, not just one person. Each family member can stay connected through shared information while keeping their own profile, color, and account settings.
