Patina: Home Maintenance

Upkeep Tracker & Reminders

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Patina is what a well-kept thing earns. The soft sheen on a brass handle. The deepening grain of a wooden floor. A copper roof that turns green and looks better every year for it. That beauty can't be bought new. It's earned slowly, by someone who kept up with the small things. A home works the same way. Change the filter, clear the gutters, test the alarm, flush the water heater. None of it takes long, and none of it is hard. Done in its season, year after year, it's what turns a house into somewhere that feels genuinely looked after — warm, sound, and quietly proud of itself. Patina remembers all of it, so all you have to do is the doing. WHAT IT DOES • A calm Today list. Open the app and see exactly what your home needs today. A short, finishable list — usually nothing at all, and that's a good day too. • A library of 40+ real tasks. Gutters, dryer vents, HVAC filters, smoke detectors, water heaters, sprinklers, grout, refrigerator coils. Nine categories: Safety, HVAC, Appliances, Plumbing, Exterior, Interior, Garbage & Recycling, Seasonal, and Lawn & Garden. Each arrives with a sensible schedule and a note on why it's worth doing, so the answer to "how often should I…" is already there when you need it. • Your own tasks too. Anything the library doesn't cover — write it in seconds, on whatever rhythm your home actually keeps. • A reminder on the day it's due. One notification, at an hour you choose, and you can complete or snooze it right from the banner. • Tick it off from the Home Screen. The widget shows today's tasks, and a tap on a task's circle completes it right there. • A satisfying swipe to mark it done. It's a small thing. You'll like it. A STREAK THAT'S ON YOUR SIDE Patina counts the weeks your home has stayed on track — the steady kind of progress that actually keeps a house happy, rather than a tally of chores. It's built to be kept. There's a week of grace for when life gets loud. It pauses rather than resets when you've genuinely got nothing scheduled, so finishing your last task is always a good thing. And because it counts weeks of steadiness rather than tasks ticked, it rewards the habit you're actually trying to build. Watch it climb. Week eleven feels like something, and it should. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. No ads. Your tasks live on your device and sync across your own devices through your own private iCloud — we can't see them, and nobody's building a profile out of your home. FREE FOR FIVE TASKS Patina is free, and your first five tasks stay free forever — with every feature, reminders included. One purchase makes room for the rest of your home. No subscription, nothing to renew, nothing to cancel. Look after the small things, and the years look after your home. Let it age well. Have questions? We're here to help.

The widget rolled up its sleeves. It's interactive now: tap the circle next to a task on your Home Screen and Patina marks it done and schedules the next one.
