Two siblings, Julian and Gillian, are trying to avoid cleaning their rooms. They discover an "Invisibility App" that they think will help them get out of the chore. The app supposedly makes them invisible, but it's just a ruse. Their dad is not fooled and eventually downloads the app himself, using it to play pranks on the kids. However, things take a turn when the dad becomes stuck in an invisible state, unable to interact with his family. The kids try to find a way to reverse the effect, and eventually, the app is deleted, and the dad returns to normal.
