Description
Take charge of your repeaty household jobs with Home Routines. Create routine checklists, then complete them on your chosen days of the week, with reminder notifications to keep you on track, and a gold star for each completed task. Your checklists can automatically reset - start fresh each morning, week, or month (no guilt trips here!) Free online editing and syncing between your devices. Home Routines is totally customisable, easy to use, and friendly, not bossy.
Keep your email, calendar and to-do lists clutter free by keeping recurring housework chores in Home Routines, the only app designed from scratch to suit the real flow of your home. Customisable to suit your home and your household. You choose how often your routines recur - with daily, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly and seasonal scheduling options.
Detailed cleaning lists are built in with the “Focus Zones” section - add rooms and tasks to suit your house, then do a little bit of extra housework every day and you'll never have to spring clean again! Up to seven zones so you can switch focus each day of the week, or choose to switch zone each week of the month.
Discover the power of speed cleaning with Home Routines' built-in timer - set your timer to 10 or 15 minutes, set your mind to it and see how much gets done.
There's even a built-in to-do list for simple one-off jobs, and a daily message option helps you plan the pattern of your weekdays.
Home Routines' unique Accomplishments list is the “Tada!” to your todo - review all the tasks you've completed today. You can even share your accomplishments via email.
Even with its cool sync features, all your data is still available locally on your device, so you don't need an internet connection to use the app.

Ratings and Reviews
Like a comforting best friend
I have used this app for years and love it more and more with time. I love that the developers have continued to give it life as iOS updates. It’s so simple and so effective. I initially (16 years ago!) got into the fly lady method to keep my house from CHAOS and that’s somehow how I stumbled on this app. I have used multiple other to do lists over the years but nothing matches the (deceptively) simple way in which this gives me stars for accomplishments which I still need to motivate me to do the little things. And gives me simple tasks to keep the house in order. I accomplished 17 tasks today btw. Go me. So thank you Wunderbear. I don’t know who you are but you are the best!
Invaluable for households with domestic blind spots
I saw this app recommended in an online discussion about how to keep on top of housework. We're a big household, busy, and not naturally tidy - we see the mess/chaos once it's built up and then don't know where to start; chipping away as we go along just doesn't come naturally to us. This app has enabled us to distil chores into everyday basics, weekly and fortnightly housework, etc. Now we just need to look at and work through our daily list. With a baby in the equation, we won't be sticking to it too religiously for a while, but it's the strongest starting point we've been at yet. It's great that my partner has the app on his phone too and we can each keep up with what needs doing, wherever we are/if the other is out/without needing to leave lists lying around. If I could work out how to allocate my own dates for different zones (three days for this, four for that, for example), I'd give it five stars. A genuinely helpful app when it comes to trying to run a vaguely orderly, clear and clean home.
Absolutely Fantastic App
Really beautifully made app, very well thought out, and I love the clear well designed user interface. And it packs a lot of function in - you can make your cleaning routines as simple or in depth as you like, with tasks even able to be assigned to show in specific months. I don’t normally pay for apps but I am glad I bought this one, it has been invaluable!
I would like to be able to use all 7 zones in consecutive weeks, and not have it cut off after a month, so hopefully this will be possible in the future, as it is a while since they have released an update.
