Home Routines App

[Flyingoutofcontrol]

Is it worth the £2.49?

I do have my FlyLady control journal in my kitchen, but am wondering about getting the app as well. Then I have the journal that DH can refer to but have it on my phone for more instant results and a checklist as I go.

Anyone got it and love/hate it?

I bought it years ago. Tried to set it up, a lot of effort and never used it again. It was a little buggy back then but probably had bug fixes since then.

Hmm, good to know.

I'll maybe wait and see what others who have used it more recently think before taking the plunge then.

I just like the idea of having lists on my phone that DH can't see and smile at

He does support having a clean house, but has a brain that copes with lists internally, whereas I need to see things written down.

I adore the ticking off process, but it's a pain to wipe clean, so having a button I can push would be brilliant!

I love love love it, I now use it for my general to do lists as well as morning and evening routines. It does take some setting up, but as you've already sorted out your routines it shouldn't take long.

I have it but barely use it... But from what you're saying I think you would love it. When you tick things off you get accomplishments which is quite nice to look at at the end of the day.
It's not buggy at all and you can access everything on a pc from their website too so you can print off your lists etc..

I've just bought it, and am just getting into it, but I really like it. I've set up all of my zones, and love to see what I've achieved in each zone when I get to the end of each zone's week.

Its not flylady so might not work as well but I use a free app called errands. Its like a to do list but you can set up things to recur (eg wash towels) daily/weekly/ monthly/yearly/at weekends/on specified days etc.

You can add whatever tasks you like and organise them into categories. You can prioritise them and set alerts to go off to reminf you to do them (every minute/hour/day etc)
It has check boxes to click once done, and if you like to see how productive youve been you can look at your done list at the end of the day!
I love it - and its free!

Love it and well worth the money. I have a routine for each day and set up my zones and a daily reminder to tell me what I need to do. Fab app

I've had it a week and have set it up with all my housework jobs.

So far I've followed it every day, and have started my second round of it today. It resets itself at the end of the week so no wiping clean. It tells you how many accomplishments you've reached that day. You set it up so you do a bit each day rather than the whole house on a Monday and then let it fall apart through the rest of the week.

I love it. My house is tidy and clean and has stayed like this for a week (that's a miracle, 2 days is our record) I have forgotten nothing for a whole week. I am stunned by how much difference it seems to have made in getting me to pull my now nicely-paired-and-put-away socks up.

And if you don't follow it, you've only spent £2.50 :)

I have it and like it. I wouldn't be without it, but I don't use it endlessly.

It tells me what to wash that day (tuesday: nappies), and it calculates how I can get my house clean in one month (focus Jane 16 - 22, Zone 3, Bathroom Kitchen and Fish) (bugger, must clean out fish).

It has morning and evening tasks and To Do but I don't use any of those. If I have to do something daily (eg put washing out, empty dishwasher, put washing on, fill dishwasher, aaaargghhhhh) I don't want to have to tick it off a list every day and I don't need a reminder to do it. But for the first part, its worth it.
