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.

Like a comforting best friend

dr_tammy on

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!

Just what’s needed!

Rachael Ellen on

Who needs photos and pretty incentives? This app does exactly what is needed to get organised and is easy to adapt to my routines. I’ve used it for many years. I started by setting up Flylady’s schedule, then adapting it as I wanted. The kids are on it and we can all see the jobs that need doing as well as our individual lists. The developer is helpful and quickly responds to questions.

Still loving and using it!

I’ve forgotten how long ago I bought this app but I still love it. It continues to work fine and is really easy to adapt to whatever cleaning routine you want to set up. I also love the todo list. If I wake up with my brain whirring with the amount to get through that day/week, I just list it all out and have the satisfaction of getting a star for each item I get through 😊 The look and the simplicity of this beats the others for me.

The best todo app for housework

Jennylorna on

I’ve tried so many different ways to try and stay on top of house work and this app is the best for me. It really is simple and easy to use and you can customise to fit to your own home and lifestyle. I especially like the accomplishments list. Great if you struggle with housework and need a bit of encouragement! You can have daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, summer, winter and annual house maintenance tasks as well as adding your own lists for projects or one off tasks. I’m using an older version (on my ancient iPad) so i can’t comment on the latest version but the app works well and is very stable. Needs free subscription to the website to work.

Messy app. Everything is in different places

Loob5 on

I just want an app where I open it up and today’s tasks are all there in a list to be checked off. In this app, everything is in different places, I don’t want it hidden behind morning jobs and evening jobs. It’s also really confusing to use - how do I add a biweekly task on top of daily tasks? The help page on the website is complicated and I cannot understand how to use the app at all. Really annoyed that I spent money on it. Don’t bother buying it.

Best housework app

Sparkykath on

I have tried many many apps to organise getting my housework done , until I tried this one I thought I would never find what I was looking for , it’s easy to use , easy to set up !! the only part of it I don’t use is the zones part and I find as I work shifts I work better without including zones . I would highly recommend this app . I use it all the time as I like to be organised and marking a job as done is a great feeling I must say !

Love it

Janecc511a on

This is a really useful app - fantastic for repeating tasks - have not found anything better for that Love the fanfare sound on the timer (if you choose to use it). Makes me fee I’ve climbed Everest! Very motivating. One suggestion for developers- a list that resets when you have completed it.

Best routine app I’ve found

UrbanAngel on

I have had this app for a long time and though I still check out other apps occasionally, nothing beats this one. It is perfect for what I need. Really customisable, not rigid, not irritating.

Its not good, its absolutely brilliant

Tiern09 on

I used to have all my routines in a file, but oh this app is good.You can use the system as it is, or as I have and entered my own tasks under weeks, months etc, you never have to think when you need to do something ever again and it keeps you on track. Works well with Flylady and keeps me organised. I have now used this and adapted/updated for at least 5 yrs and wouldn’t use anything else. I would be lost without this.

Better than FlyLady!

Lola 211 on

This app is fantastic! Organised the same way as FlyLady into zones, but this is clean, modern and free of all the endless self-promotion and babbling that made FlyLady an absolute nightmare. Easy to edit, simple interface and everything you need to keep your home from being a chaotic mess.
