How to Play

Your guide to the candy hunt

Everything you need to go from new player to top of the leaderboard.

1

Create your account

Kids sign up with a username and password — no email needed. Grown-ups can sign in with Apple or Google. Younger players will be asked for a parent's email so a parent can approve the account.

2

Pick your costume avatar

Choose from dozens of custom costumes — witch, astronaut, dinosaur, superhero, and more — to build your spooky profile.

3

Go trick-or-treating

Head out on Halloween night and collect candy the classic way. TreatStreet is about getting outside and having fun.

4

Snap your haul

Lay out your candy and take a photo in the app. Our friendly AI counts your candy to score your run. The more you collect, the higher you score.

5

Earn badges & climb

Verified hauls unlock badges and bonus points. Watch your name rise on the friends, school, state, and national leaderboards.

6

Explore the map

Drop notes and photos on the neighborhood map to mark the best houses — and see what other trick-or-treaters in your age group have shared.

Good to know

Fair play & the fine print

How scoring works

TreatStreet uses AI vision to count the candy in your photo — that count is what scores your haul. Play fair: photograph your real candy.

Photos are screened

All photos and videos are automatically screened to keep TreatStreet friendly and safe for everyone.

Age-separated community

Kids and adults see separate map notes, photos, and feeds so the experience stays age-appropriate.

You control your privacy

Choose Anonymous, Friends-Only, or Visible. Younger accounts start at the most private settings by default.

That's it — go get the candy!
