About Hacklegate Housework
Hacklegate Housework is a calm, offline home chore planner built around one idea: the house moves forward one job at a time. The app learns how often you really do each task, tracks how far each room has slipped, and shows a single next job on the Today screen so you always know what will help most right now. Every completion also teaches the app through a simple verdict — could have waited, about right, or was overdue — so the schedule can adapt to the rhythm you actually keep. Organize chores by room, see the next fortnight at a glance, spot heavy days before they hit, and work through catch-up queues one task at a time. Hacklegate Housework also detects runs — chores you usually do back to back — and offers them as easy momentum-building sequences. You can review true rhythms, nudge chores to better intervals, and keep a clean record of what was done today across the whole house. Everything works entirely on device. There are no accounts, no sign-in, no sync, no ads, no notifications, and no network required. Grit is earned only by getting work done and spent only on visual customization such as glazes, plates, hen outfits, stamps, and trim. If you want a focused housework companion that helps you keep up without turning your home into a stressful spreadsheet, Hacklegate Housework is built for that.
