App good, workable lists/viewing could be better

I have had the app for awhile and like it, but I would really like to see these ideas incorporated to make it more of my everyday/life-go-to app: 1- Make start times/dates and reset options more flexible. I have added more chores to it (weekly, daily, monthly, and annual/seasonal), like the other reviewers, the start and reset times/ dates are a little restricted. 2- Email lists. I would like to get my chore chart/list emailed to me the night before the next day starts, and have a manual option to email or print a chore chart or list of chores for a specific date or range of dates (eg. Week at a glance). 3- Increase viewing options. I would like to be able to see the next day today if I want or even the next few days to help plan my days activities. 4- Wish list items now: a) Be able to assign chores to each of my children (it would be cool to be able to get an alert or see anytime what they have done for the day) b) be able to integrate chore lists into either my Google calendar or tasks. c). Be able to print chores off in a weekly box-calendar format to see the big pic in my planner or to pin up on my wall. Thanks for listening! A busy, ADHD-prone Mom of boys

How I learned to let go and love the mess

I no longer stress trying to clean the entire house in the few golden hours after my 1 year old goes to sleep. Just stick to the schedule and itll all get done . . . eventually.

Love it!!

I have Adult ADHD and this is by far the most helpful app I have ever used! Im always looking for the most helpful apps to help me get everything done, stay on time and remember everything. I have not found one comparable to this!

Useful but could be better

I love all the features of this app but I wish it allowed for a checklist of subtasks for items listed in the routine lists. That and being able to see tasks specified for other days and not just the current day would make this a perfect 5 star app. I do love the ability to create weekly "zones" for the app to track of for me

Love this app but it is missing quarterly setting

I love using this app to keep track of our cleaning duties. I really like how easily it is to customize to fit our home cleaning needs but am really disappointed that it is missing a quarterly option. There are many cleaning tasks that are needed only once a season and it would be nice to be able to track them here and not on a separate app.

Good app

Im liking the app! I like that it resets my list each day like a clean slate. Love the zones so that I can focus on what Ive done no what I need to do. My husband said itd be cool if it had some kind of badge to celebrate tasks accomplished kind of like the Nike app idea.

Great organizational tool

Very good organizational tool. It helps me keep up with everything I need to do in various areas of my life.

One of my favorite apps!

I use this app nearly every day. Extremely useful to keep up with housework and more. Easy to use and customize. Some of the complaints on this app are actually doable already in the app. Just need to explore further, such as, monthly resets. I have anything I need to do monthly in the focus zone part. Each zone comes up once a month and you have a week to do it. Very workable for me. Also, the "ALL" tab in the top left corner allows you to see each list of tasks, each day of the week, times of day, etc. A quarterly task list is also available on this app. Thank you to the developers for a great app. I dont buy many apps, but this one was worth the money for sure.

Love it!

As a chronically disorganized person, Ive struggled with how to keep up. This allows me to decide what to do, when to do it, and gives me a tool to exert control over my home. Just the cues and timer (love that music!) are great, but the lists that reset, zones, reminders etc are even better. This is flylady friendly, but even better.

Great with room for a few improvements

I love this app. I use it everyday. Its awesome to be able to set up biweekly chores and not have to worry about which week Im on because it does it for me! And how you can set your chores to reset on certain days is awesome. I can just get on and see what I need to do for the day without having to navigate too much. There are a few things Id like to see improved. The main thing that bothers me is that the week starts on Sunday. I HATE this. My week, like everyone elses week, starts on Sunday. I would at the very least like the option to have the week start on Sunday. The other thing that isnt that big of a deal (and would help out my husband more than me) that would be nice is to have the option of chores that repeat every 3 days. Or 4 days, or 5 days, etc. For instance, my husband is a fire fighter and works every third day. Hed like to be able to have chores that only show up on the days hes working. Currently, theres no way for that to happen but it really would be nice to have that option. I actually just thought of something else thats not too big of a deal that would be nice is the ability to see when Ive completed my tasks the last time. It would be great to be able to click on a task and it have the history of the dates I completed the it.

Best of its kind

I have pretty serious executive functioning issues (autism & adhd) so Ive spent a fair amount of time trying out various productivity apps and aides. This app is by far the best, at least for me. The layout is simple, so its not overwhelming in the way so many other systems are. But its detailed and guides you, unlike simple to-do apps. It holds your hand through the process without being a helicopter parent. A+!

Great app

Love this app. Good way to stay focused and make sure I didnt forget anything. Easy to use and customize. Worth every penny.

Great app and fun too

Have been using this for a long time and really like it. Flexible and keeps me on task as I cycle the cleaning zones every month. The check-off boxes and calc of the number of tasks completed each day is brilliant and makes me feel very accomplished. My only suggestion would be more flexibility with choosing time assignments for tasks. For example, I dont have to worry about weeding the garden in December.

Re. most recent update

Wunderbear picture that appears when opening the app was cute the first time you saw it but now its annoying. I use this app multiple times on a daily basis and it causes delays waiting on him to gol Please consider for the next update a one time only use of it. If you really like it, you could use it for the app icon.-thanks! -Let us know when the pop up bear is discontinued. I deleted the update and reverted to a previous version to avoid the delay.

Invaluable - Finally getting organized

This app is helping me to finally start getting a handle on my home cleaning and routines. Take the time to learn the app and learn the philosophy of zone cleaning (Fly Lady system for example.) Understanding these home organization ideas and really learning how powerful the app can be if you customize it is key. One thing I would like is a Daily Water check off. Maybe a bar in the routine section with 8 glasses.

love this app!

helps in keeping me on track with cleaning schedule at home and also work schedule.

Great way to have a"roll over" to-do list

Love this app! It takes a while to get everything you want on the list. I did mine over time and now adjust once in awhile. Theres a book about home management called "Sidetracked Home Executives" its a great book and this app comes so close to the plan laid out in the book. I have been looking for something a long time. Wish I could switch the zone days after all the entry, but maybe in one of the up-dates.

Love, love, love this app, had it for many years. Dreaming if it had a grocery list to scan barcodes it would be perfect.

Love this app

Good stuff

My favorite most utilized app!

5 stars is not something I generally give out ! But this simple app has been surprisingly so consistently useful for me I never tire of using it and find new ways to use it to help me all the time.
