Tracking Accuracy on a Graph
I am a special education teacher. I would like to be able to have a graph that tracks date vs accuracy for goals.

Is it possible to add biweekly (every other week) to the" when: tab" for therapists? My daughter sees her OT every other week. Thanks!

Update website time picker
To expedite the process of tracking events on the website, I would like the default time picker to work in increments of 15 minutes following the pattern in the iOS app.
3 votesThank you for sharing your request. We will take that under consideration in our planning.

Improve activity creation performance on website
I primarily use the website to create a series of activities for a period of time (i.e. entering all activities for the morning.) This process is slow in part because the website reloads each time an activity is created and a full webpage load is pretty slow. It would be great if the activity POSTing could occur over AJAX to eliminate the need for a page reload.
2 votesWe absolutely agree

Add activity for more than one person
I would love to be able to add an activity for more than one person at a time, for example, when we all eat a meal together, be able to add it to more than one person at a time instead of having to do them individually.
3 votesGreat suggestion!
We definitely will ad this, although I don’t have a timetable, at the moment. -
Add the ability to tag entries to more easily correlate them
It would be great to have the option to add tags to entries like "vacation" or "school" to allow users to link disparate entries together with one searchable term. This will help users find entries that relate to each other and can help identify longer term trends that would be hard to pick out using just activity types. Right now we can do it by adding a keyword to the entries but having it be a tag field that can be clicked on in an entry to search by would make Birdhouse far more powerful in my opinion.
1 voteThis is a great suggestion and definitely some we intend to do. We have some more basic things already in the works that have priority, like adding support for attaching files and more, but we’ll definitely get there

Suggestion: change the activity entry type to use the same settings as meltdown
I've been using Activity entries to track my daughters physical activity to ensure she gets enough exercise. My feedback on using it for this is that it would be great to use the Meltdown Low | Medium | High buttons to record the intensity of the activity and Duration field for Activity entries to give better data about how active the child has been.

Try it out and let us know what you think! -
Change the order of scheduled items
Reverse the order of daily scheduled items so morning is on top and evening is on the bottom.

Collaborator roles and permissions
I would really like to use this to have my son's care team collaborate more effectively. And, I know that there are some things that I might put in BirdHouse that I would still want private. Could you add in permission levels, either by object (note / file / etc) and/or by user so that I can restrict access to some things?
For example, if I were to keep track of IEP notes, I might not want my actual IEP team to see everything that I have written.
6 votesWe agree, this feature is very important and is something we are currently working to provide. We’ll update this as we make progress on it.

Need to make it easier to invite collaborators
I'm trying out Birdhouse and it seems like a great idea. However, it's difficult and confusing to invite a collaborator (for me and for them). I'd like to collaborate with my son's nanny, ABA, OT, etc...but I know that if its not super easy for them to use, they won't do it and I'll be stuck trying to elicit and record their notes.
7 votesCollaboration is a newer feature at the moment, and we are currently in the process of making the process of inviting new collaborators more convenient and straightforward. We’re excited to be able to make this more accessible as this year goes on.

Behavioral Tools
Section for CBT and DBT skills
breathing, counting, ABC's, singing, things that the child has been taught to assist in calming down
5 votesYou can now create a category for these things on the More page on the web, and then they will be added to your Activities list, and you can then record what happens and when.
If you have questions, please ask at owl@birdhousehq.com

More than just Therapists
I'd like a different term for the category "Therapists", maybe Care Team or just Contacts. I would like to keep contact information for everyone involved in my child's care, not just therapists; teachers, caregivers, doctors, etc.
5 votesWe now have some options for doing this.
Shoot us a message at owl@birdhousehq.com if you’d like to change the name of your category and/or any other details.

ability to color code the existing activity symbol + customize activity name/symbol
I have ASD child who has poop accidents (not done in the toilet but elsewhere) once every now and then, but there is only one 'poop' symbol to use for both regular poop and poop accident. and this is inconvenient on the report because I can't tell how many times she had poop accidents out of all the poops done within a week or month or etc.. so if there was an option to use different color on the same 'poop' symbol, it'll help us to easily see on the graph where/when she had the poop accident and when she…
5 votesGreat suggestion/feedback.
We are working on a wonderful version of this that I think you are going to love.
In the meantime, one detail that might help you;
In the Reports section, if you select Other and the click the checkbox below that says ‘Show Advanced Filters’, there will be a chart that shows your various types of Other, and you could select just one or two specific ones you wanted graphed/included in your export data, like ‘Poop accident’
I hope this helps.
We can’t wait to see how you like the new stuff we are working on. -

19 votesGreat suggestion!
We will keep these in mind as we continue to evolve the product.
I would love to see an example of what you mean by ‘make a grid and add data’. Do you already have something like this you’d like to be able to do and update with Birdhouse that we could see? How do you do this system?
