Profiles

Skylight makes use of Profiles to organize your events, tasks, and rewards. 

Profiles are a label for events, tasks, and rewards that are tied to people. Every member of your household can have a Profile to keep their events, tasks, and rewards organized and separate.

You can also use a Profile for a group of people. There may be events, tasks, or rewards that are tied to every member of the household as a group; a vacation, or a sporting event, etc. Instead of putting the event in everyone’s Profile, the event can go into a single group profile, and everyone can keep track of it there.

There may also be events, tasks, and rewards that are not related to any particular person in the household. This usually involves events: for example, you may want to keep a calendar of national holidays on your Calendar device. National holidays aren’t tied to any person or group of people in your household, so they can be added to your Calendar without being tied to a Profile, under an Other Label.

Events, tasks, and rewards that are associated with a Profile adopt the Profile’s color. Color coding associated events, tasks and rewards visually organizes your Calendar. 

There is no limit to the number of Profiles you can create.

There is no one right way to use Profiles. Use Profiles to help you organize your Calendar in a way that makes sense to you and your household.
