The chore wheel [1], which my wife and I used to run on an old iPad to track evening chores. It uses local storage for recurring chores and one-off reminders. We tried a bunch of other tools but they were all too full featured or slow to ooperate. It replaced a paper list.
When debugging network issues I realized I was going back and forth between my computer, router, and cables under the desk. I created an audible network check [2] so I could just listen to hear the status.
Honest question: I was looking at Wednesday and it said: Cook dinner, Dishes, Trash out. What is the usefulness of tracking this in the app since just entering the kitchen gives you instant status to each of them?
I put some generic defaults, but it works well for tasks that happen only on certain days. Taking trash to the curb once a week, packing bags for kids after school activities, etc. We liked checking things off the list, so we put obvious stuff too, but it's easy to forget infrequent tasks.
Got it. Makes sense. Gonna try this although another thing we were planning to solve was balancing the chores between us to fix the paradox where both of us think they do more than the other. So this would be an iPad fixed on a wall or in a very visible position?
