Housework on a rhythm instead of a daily list: the windows every two weeks, the bathroom every Saturday, and everyone takes a turn. On your own instance, for the whole household.

What you get out of it

  • Repeats as fine-grained as you need
  • Several people share the same list
  • Reminders run through your own instance
