Home Routine

HomeRoutine keeps a household running without anyone having to remember everything. Every room holds the jobs it needs. Each one has its own rhythm — daily, weekly, every three months — and HomeRoutine works out what is due today. Not a list that only grows: a plan that knows the difference between "the bin goes out tonight" and "the windows are due sometime this month". ROOM BY ROOM, AT A GLANCE Rooms carry their own colour, and it deepens as work builds up — one look tells you where the household stands. Rooms keep their place in the list, so you find the kitchen where it was yesterday, not wherever it drifted to. Tap one to see what it needs and tick it off. BUILT FOR A WHOLE HOUSEHOLD Everyone in the family shares one plan and sees the same thing. Tasks can belong to one person or to everybody. Children get a simplified view with just the essentials. Grown-ups keep the reins: only they create and change tasks, set coin values, and decide how far ahead anyone may work. When a child ticks something off, an adult confirms it — including jobs nobody assigned them. COINS AND A REWARD SHOP Children earn coins for the work they do and spend them on rewards their parents set up: a later bedtime, picking the film, a trip to the cinema. Nothing is granted automatically — an adult confirms every completion and decides what it was worth, and can add a bonus for stepping in where nobody asked. DOES NOT NAG A day with seven jobs is a day nobody starts. Set a limit and the tasks that come around most often quietly move to tomorrow — no penalty, no broken streak, no evening reminder for something that was moved on purpose. Holidays pause everything. Finished a task early? That is fine, within the limits you set. TIMED TASKS Some jobs are about sticking with them, not about the result. Give a task a duration and it comes with a timer: pause it, put the phone down, come back. It counts as done when the time is done — never before, and never by itself. ALSO IN THE BOX - Inventory with barcode scanning; items with the same name are grouped across rooms and added up - Shopping list that fills itself when supplies run low - Calendar with ICS import — bin collection, birthdays, appointments, with reminders - Stars, streaks and a collection to make it worth coming back - Works offline and syncs when it can
