About this app

You set the chore chart on Sunday. By Wednesday no one's looking at it. By Saturday the kitchen's a war zone again — and somehow you're the only one cleaning it.

Tidywell is the chore tracker and cleaning app built for real homes: ADHD brains, tired parents, and roommates who forget whose turn it is. Instead of red warnings, guilt trips and 50-task lists, you get a cleaning schedule that fits your energy, a 2.5D dollhouse of your house that glows sage green when it's tidy, a family organizer that shares chores for kids and adults fairly, and a focus mode for the days your brain doesn't want to. House cleaning, finally a game.

WATCH YOUR HOME GLOW
A 2.5D dollhouse view of your house, colour-coded by cleanliness. Sage green when it sparkles. Warm amber when it's due. Never red, never angry.

ADHD-FRIENDLY CLEANING
Traditional chore lists are paralysing. Tidywell's answer:
• Focus Mode — one task at a time, pie timer, no list
• Energy check-in (low / medium / high) — the app filters tasks to match
• Spin the wheel — let it choose where to start
• AI task breakdown — any chore split into tiny micro-steps
• Body doubling — live cleaning sprints alongside real family in real time
• Low Spoons mode — auto-activates and hides the hard stuff
• "Good enough" completion — done imperfectly beats not done

A FAIR CHORE CHART FOR FAMILIES & KIDS
Kids forget. Parents end up doing it all. Tidywell's answer:
• Kids Mode — playful UI, big tap targets, age-appropriate achievements
• Dependent profiles — add a child without giving them their own phone
• Task approval with before/after photos
• 1.5x coin rewards for kids
• Exclusive kid-only furniture in the shop
• "We Moved House" rebuild — reset the layout, keep streaks, coins, achievements

A CHORE CHART FOR FLATMATES & ROOMMATES
"I always do the bins. They never do the bathroom." Nobody has the data. Tidywell's answer: effort-weighted Fair Share — 5 deep cleans counts more than 10 quick wipes. Household leaderboard. Room-neglect radar. End the "who does more" fight with numbers.

SMART SCHEDULE (PREMIUM)
Auto-builds your week from what's actually due, your daily time budget, and your preferred days. Pauses during vacation. Detects dinner parties or guests in your calendar and offers a 3–7 day prep checklist — calendar data never leaves your phone.

DECORATE YOUR DREAM HOME
Earn coins from every task, streak, and achievement. Spend them on 100+ furniture pieces — sage sofas, velvet loveseats, brass lamps, wallpapers, rugs. Seasonal items rotate monthly.

Ratings and reviews

I like that the tasks are already created and you can pick and choose which to add into your list. I know I can get easily overwhelmed having to manually add every task. One flaw I noticed was on the "Today" tab the total tasks completed isn't always accurate and when you complete tasks assigned for the day it'll add in different tasks (I've noticed it primarily happens when I use the "Focus" feature).

Its the best tidy app I've found but there are a couple of things that would make it perfect: Being able to select 2x or 3x a day/week/month instead of cloning tasks. Refining the "Whenever" setting so it stays unticked and lets you know when last done - good for things which rely on usage instead of schedule Placing items/wallpaper/flooring is glitchy and reverts back. I would add xtra star for this. Being able to set a start date for scheduled tasks, so it gives you a date when next due.

the concept is really good, i have ADHD and it helped motivate me to do my chores and keep track of them but sadly there are some major bugs that completely ruined the experience for me. one time my whole room setup got duplicated, then the tracker always says the rooms are "all clean" even when they have 0% progress, and recently after i updated the app all my rooms disappeared so now i have to set everything up again.
