Househand reminds you when each one is due
Paper works until it goes on the fridge and stays there. The Househand app keeps the same checklist and tells you when each job comes due, based on when you last did it.
- A reminder when a job is due, not on a fixed date
- A history of what you did and when
- The same schedule as this site, optional tasks and all
The app is not in the stores yet. Until it is, track your house in the browser: same schedule, same rules.
