Sweepy: Home Cleaning Schedule

Sweepy has given me my time and my life back!! My home life is more productive and the stress of keeping up with daily chores is a breeze. The app is easy to set up, modify and interact with. I love that there’s no naggy reminders to make you feel bad if you forget to complete a job. The colour coding of green , yellow and red for how near your upcoming tasks are due is really clever. Also just found the challenges!! This app just got even better. Thankyou

Helpful in motivating to do the dreaded cleaning and to prioritise with the traffic light system. I also find the sounds satisfying when you tick off what you have completed. :)

Being able to list all the jobs that need doing round the house and how frequently is itself liberating as it takes it out of my brain. To then have the app sort out what jobs to do what days is amazing. Instead of me spending all my weekends rushing around and not achieving anything, I now just do 1 or 2 jobs each day and have reclaimed my weekends. I no longer stress that things aren’t getting done, as Sweepy tells me different !

Love it!

My housemate and I use this to keep on top of our cleaning and make sure nothing goes forgotten about for months (I’m looking at you, light switches). It’s really handy! I wish the notifications were more custom though - it just tells me to clean at 6pm but I have to go into the app to check what jobs are on for today, which can be a bit slow and cumbersome. I also think the UI is a bit cluttered. Otherwise, a good app that does what it says it does.

Incredible app

Having a limit of 3, yes 3 little rotating tasks which is a very much required feature basically renders the app useless. In other words, you have 3 children, each take turns at tasks (rotating task). So now let's say you have one of your rooms "Kitchen" and within the kitchen you have 3 separate tasks or chores, well that's it for rotating tasks now, the app says the scheduler won't work if you add in more rotating tasks, however you still have the remainder of the ENTIRE house you need to rotate tasks through. Do not bother with this app if that's how you want to do it.

This app doesn’t quite deliver. The problem being that if you attempt to add more than 3 tasks that rotate through members of your household, it begins to bug and doesn’t actually rotate the task correctly. 3 tasks as a limit for this is a bit ridiculous, for example in my household 2 of these are taken up by “taking the bins to the curb” and “bringing them around the house”. Leaving only one spot for a rotating task without the app losing it’s mind.

I have always struggled so much with keeping up with cleaning schedules. Sweepy has been amazing for breaking things into smaller tasks and my house has never looked better. Initial set up was pretty easy with the suggested tasked for each room, but I did find myself tweaking things to suit my needs. Breaking dishes up into categories like cutlery, plates, bowls, pans etc. as I do not have a dishwasher and hand washing is my biggest ADHD hurdle. But also removing some of the more “aspirational” tasks, like cleaning the baseboards of every room. Just not feasible for my lifestyle as it is now. I have had this app since around April or May of 2023 and I am now at a point with it where it feels like a good balance for my own abilities and the needs of my household. Absolute 10 out of 10 app.

Love it! I still don’t get everything done, but I feel much better because my house is cleaner!! I’m cleaning things that usually get pushed to the back again and again! Sounds weird, but it’s helped my mental health as well because I feel like I’m achieving more now with cleaning our house and it’s not as overwhelming. Thank you!! Occasionally I only get half a task done, not sure if there may be room for a “half done” option in the future for these times? Although I will be trying to do 100% of a task, this was just a thought!!
