Keeping a home clean isn't really about scrubbing — it's about remembering. What's due, how often, which appliance hasn't been touched in months. Elbow carries that mental load for you.
Tell elbow about your home once, and it keeps time: surfacing the right cleaning tasks exactly when they're due, walking you through appliance care step by step, and fitting around the seasons and real life. No guilt, no endless catch-up — just a short, doable plan each day.
WHAT ELBOW DOES
- Room-by-room routines — pick your rooms (two bedrooms? add both) and elbow builds a cleaning rhythm for each one, quietly resurfacing tasks the moment they're due. Rename rooms and tasks to match how you live.
- Seasonal and safety jobs — gutters in autumn, smoke alarm tests every month, the boiler service before winter. Home Safety and Home Upkeep keep the easy-to-forget jobs on track.
- Appliance care, step by step — descale the kettle, clean the washing machine, clear the extractor filter, with clear steps and a "last cleaned" note so nothing slips for months.
- Stain rescue guides — quick, practical methods for spills and marks, without a frantic web search.
- See your home at a glance — a dashboard shows what's due today or across the week, plus each room's health.
- Gentle reminders — an optional morning nudge on days something is due.
- Badges and titles — earn them for the cleaning you actually do, and share the ones you're proud of.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
elbow has no accounts, no analytics, and no trackers. Your rooms, tasks, and cleaning history live only on your device and in your own iCloud — we can't see any of it, and we never sell or share your data.
