### 3/5 — Nice and simple, but lacking basic feature

*2021-04-25*

So, I’d like to give this 5 stars, but after setting up the account and being required to put in someone for each chore as myself, there is no way to reassign the chore to others. So I have to recreate all the chores for it to work now that everyone has joined the group. That’s very time consuming and defeats the purpose of simple task division.

**Developer response:** Hi! I agree this would be very annoying, so I’ve gone ahead and added item editing in the latest update! Please let me know if there is anything else you would like to see in future updates.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-02-14*

Honestly, I don’t write reviews often. But I can say that within just a few minutes of using this app it became a must have on my iPhone. No lengthy account set up. Easy to create a group. Simple ways to create new chores or bills. The color looks great. I use tons of different apps but this one stuck me as so elegant that I have to tell about it.

### 5/5 — Must have roommate app

*2019-11-14*

A simple way to manage the household and bills.

### 1/5 — Bad on-boarding so that you cannot skip it to accomplish later

*2025-03-02*

Using Apple with 2FA only is an obstacle as well.

**Developer response:** Hi Nico! All of the onboarding screens can be skipped without taking any action. Then you can create a group, join a group, add default tasks, and add default expenses at anytime later on.

Also you can sign up with just an email which does not require using your Apple ID.

### 1/5 — Meh. Keep Trying

*2020-03-28*

No way to make Tasks recurring, rotating between members selected, with a set time frame between completion? So every time I want my roomie to wash dishes I make a new Task eh?

**Developer response:** Hi there,

I appreciate the feedback and apologize that your experience was suboptimal. I am work to improve the app by adding new features such as recurring or rotating chores and bills.

P.S. Dwell now has all of these features! I hope you’d be willing to give it another chance.

### 2/5 — no option to edit

*2023-06-04*

do we really have to re-create the entire chore or bill if we want to reassign it to somebody else? Also the whiteboard should probably be a bigger feature because it would be really helpful way to communicate with everyone about things other than bills and chores. A Calendar would be nice as well for visual learners.

### 2/5 — Not very intuitive

*2023-03-21*

Me and roommates found it difficult to figure out what was still owed by who. Great idea but execution doesn’t feel intuitive.

**Developer response:** Hi! I agree balances could be confusing, so I’ve gone ahead and rebuilt that area of the app in the latest update! Please let me know if there is anything else you would like to see in future updates.

### 2/5 — Not my style

*2022-06-20*

Both me and my roommate downloaded this and tried it out but didn’t use it for maybe a day bc we both thought it seemed passive aggressive to a degree and it’s weird you “assign” chores to your roommate like you’re their parent. Also its just not interactive or fun enough for us to keep up with but those who are more minimalistic might like it.

**Developer response:** Hi, I appreciate the feedback and just released a full visual redesign in the latest update. Please check it out and let me know if there is anything else you’d like to see in future updates!

### 2/5 — Needs to fix the essentials

*2022-06-05, version 2.2*

The inability edit a created chore is very troublesome. What if someone leaves a household? Or you want to add more roommates to the chore’s rotation? Currently the only choice is to remake the chore entirely which is a chore in itself.

**Developer response:** Hi! I agree that was a necessary feature, so I’ve gone ahead and added item editing in the latest update! Please let me know if there is anything else you would like to see in future updates.

### 2/5 — Too simple

*2021-08-29*

There should really be a reminder notification on this app. No ones gonna remember to log into the chore app. The whole point is they forget, so they need a reminder with the chore app! Also the select date feature is endlessly annoying. Just let us select from a calendar feature and not that annoying scroll thing.

**Developer response:** Hi! I agree there were several missing features, so I’ve gone ahead and added item editing in the latest update! Please let me know if there is anything else you would like to see in future updates.

### 2/5 — Missing key features

*2021-08-22, version 2.2*

Is missing essential features such as the ability to edit a chore once it’s made (instead of deleting and creating a new one) or reassigning a chore to a different household member

**Developer response:** Hi,

Thank you for the feedback. This is definitely something I feel is also missing and I’d love to implement it one day.

### 3/5 — So Far So Good

*2025-07-24*

I am very excited to utilize this app to coordinate co-parenting obligations. One tiny suggestion. When you are inputting notes when creating a list or under an item that has been added to a list. You are provided much space. It would be nice if the window expanded as you typed so someone can read the whole note

### 3/5 — No reminders

*2024-01-28*

It’s a good app but even when you turn reminders on in both phone and app settings. There is no reminder

**Developer response:** Hi Jackie, I just wanted to apologize and let you know that notifications have been rebuilt and included in the latest major update!

### 5/5 — great for roommates!!

*2026-07-03*

this app has truly helped me keep track of what I need to do so much! I am the type of person that knows there’s a lot to do but will always get caught up doing other things so having dwell remind me what tasks I need to finish and when has been such a game changer!

### 5/5 — Bonne application

*2025-03-01*

Bonne application pour ne rien rater de nos projets avenir pendant la semaine.
Cependant l'application n'est pas traduite en Français se qui est dommage.
Un traduction en français serait appreciable.
Merci au développeur pour l'offre

### 5/5 — Großes Potential

*2025-02-28*

Leider aktuell nur Englisch

### 5/5 — Feature request: add past bills

*2024-06-11*

It would be nice to do this so I can use this app to manage all of our bills. Please and thank you

**Developer response:** Hi,

I’d love to learn more about this feature request. Could you send more details to support@heydwell.com?

### 5/5 — Satisfied

*2024-06-04*

Very friendly and intuitive and free. It makes easy to split my house expenses without needing to use spreadsheets 👏🏻

### 5/5 — great idea and UI….but

*2021-12-28*

things i would change or add to this app is being able to assign multiple people to the same chore alternating who does it on the same days they’re scheduled for. and i would like to add notes and little messages of appreciation or when someone does a chore, like it

### 5/5 — Must have

*2021-07-18*

I love the clean looks to this app and how simple it is to understand and get started with. It’s saved a lot of bickering between passive aggressive roommates and helps keep our house maintained. Though simple I can’t think of anything i’d add. Definitely not deleting this any time soon.

**Developer response:** Thank you! I’m glad Dwell is able to help you and your roommates out.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2021-04-23*

Very well organized and has a beautiful and easily understandable layout for everyone!

### 5/5 — Just what your looking for

*2020-06-03*

I’ve been looking all around for an app that can organize everything for me and my roommates. It has a really clean design to it and I fully recommend it!

### 5/5 — Very Handy

*2020-05-20*

This app is really helpful for coordinating bills and chores amount my roommates and helps us all stay up to date. It is great because we don’t have to fight over the chores anymore, we just look at the app and we see who has done what, and what still needs to be done.

**Developer response:** Thank you Max! Stay tuned for a big update in the next few days which will make it even easier to manage you chores and bills.
