SpickSpan: Chore Tracker

When did we last change the sheets? SpickSpan remembers the chores that come round every few weeks or months: the sheets, the dishwasher salt, the balcony. Each chore is a houseplant on a shelf. It stands straight on the day the chore is done and droops as the next time gets closer. Nothing turns red and nothing beeps. One look at the shelf tells you what needs doing. HOW IT WORKS • Add your chores. Pick from common ones like changing the towels, descaling the kettle or turning the mattress, or write your own. Sort them by room and set how often each one should happen. • Time passes. Most chores count days. Some count use instead: the dishwasher salt runs on cycles, the washing machine on washes. • Mark it done. Tap the plant, confirm, and it stands back up. Missed a week? Nothing breaks. There are no streaks and no scores. WHAT ELSE IT DOES • A shelf for every room: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, balcony. On a tablet the shelf and an open chore sit side by side. • Five kinds of plant (five-leaf, pilea, snake plant, fern and rubber plant) in five glazed pots. Each chore gets its own, or you pick one. • One summary each morning. A single notification lists what's due. Pick the time, or turn it off. • Share a chore as a link. Send it through any messenger. The chore is stored in the link itself, so the other person needs no account. When they've done it, a link comes back to you. • Counted by use, not by date. Log a dishwasher run and the salt reminder counts it. • History and notes. Every time you mark a chore done it's saved, with a note if you like: which descaler worked, where the filter key is. • Quiet chores. Some chores are someone else's job, like the cleaner's list or a flatmate's plants. They stay on the shelf but never appear in the morning summary. • In your calendar. Add bigger seasonal jobs, like washing the windows, so everyone at home sees them coming. • Backups. Export everything as CSV files in a ZIP. The same file restores your chores on Android or iPhone.
