## What is Housemait?

Your family's week, out of your head and into one place - and now it's free. Housemait runs the school runs, clubs, lists and dinners for you, with an AI assistant the whole family can message on WhatsApp.

Text it "swimming Tuesday at 4, and we need sun cream" and it's on the calendar and the shopping list before you've put your phone down. Send it a photo of the school letter and the dates sort themselves out.

FREE FOR YOUR FAMILY

Shared calendar - colour-coded per person, school term dates built in, with your Apple, Google or Outlook calendars alongside.
Lists - shopping and to-dos that sync to every phone in real time. Add by typing, voice or photo.
Meal planner - drag recipes onto the week and the ingredients land on the shopping list by themselves.
Chores, tasks & rewards - routines for the grown-ups, star charts for the kids.
School - your child's actual term dates, imported from the school's website, a PDF, or a photo of the letter. Reminders that know about half-term.
Child Mode - a PIN-locked, kid-safe view with quests, a star shop and their own days. Children have no logins, no messaging, and there are no ads.

THE AI ASSISTANT

Message it on WhatsApp or in the app - type, talk, or send a photo - and it adds events, tasks, shopping and meals in plain English. Every household gets 10 free AI uses a month, included in the free plan.

PREMIUM (OPTIONAL)

Every new household starts with 14 days of Premium included - no card needed. Premium adds unlimited AI, a daily morning brief on WhatsApp, connected calendars and the document vault for school letters and paperwork. Monthly or Annual (annual saves you two months), priced in your local currency; one subscription covers the whole household. Cancel anytime - the app stays free and your data stays put.

PRIVACY

Your family's information belongs to your family. Documents are encrypted, nothing is sold or shared, and Housemait is fully GDPR compliant. Sign in with Apple, Google, or email.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.13.0 — 2026-08-30

Ask Siri: "Add milk to Housemait" pops it straight onto your shopping list, hands free.
School term dates are now available in every country: add your school and bring dates in your way.
Smarter country and currency detection when you join, plus a new Country & time zone setting.
Polish and fixes throughout.

### 1.11.0 — 2026-08-06

• Swipe left and right on the calendar to move between days, weeks and months.
• Pages open instantly, even on patchy signal - lists, tasks and rewards appear straight away.
• Easily move school clubs to new terms.
• AI meal planning improved.
• Notification fixes.
• Plus other fixes and polish throughout.

### 1.10.0 — 2026-07-30

A brand-new way to get started
Signing up has been rebuilt from scratch - shorter, warmer, and it remembers where you left off if you get interrupted.

A heads-up the night before
As well as your morning brief, Housemait can now send you a look at tomorrow around 8pm, so the day doesn't start with a surprise. Opt in whenever you like - just reply to the bot.

School has its own home
Term dates, holidays and inset days now live in their own section, and Housemait can pull a whole year's dates straight from your school's website, a PDF or a photo of the letter.

Party invites that don't need an app
Share a link for any event and guests can RSVP without downloading anything or making an account. You'll see who's coming as replies land.

Finish setting up, without the nagging
A quiet prompt on your home screen for the bits you skipped — invite the family, connect WhatsApp, add your calendars, turn on reminders. Tap the × on anything you don't want and it stays gone.

A smarter assistant
The WhatsApp bot now follows a conversation properly — it remembers what you were talking about, asks before changing anything it isn't sure of, and answers weather and calendar questions like a person rather than a printout.

Fixes and polish
One-off chores now appear on the right day and stay put until they're done. Pets are no longer given chores or star charts. The app stays in portrait. Plus a long list of smaller fixes across tasks, calendars and reminders.

### 1.9.0 — 2026-07-10

New in 1.9.0
• Kids' Notes — in Kids Mode your children can draw or write you one note a day. You'll get a notification, can react with an emoji they'll see back, browse every note in the new Kids' Notes gallery, and even print one for the fridge.
• Deleting one day of a repeating event now asks whether you mean just that day or the whole series — no more accidental "delete every week".
• The app now grows with your family: kid features appear once you add a child.
• A tidier menu, plus polish across Kids Mode and Settings.

### 1.8.0 — 2026-07-03

A big update, with some of the most-requested features yet. Here is what is new since you last updated:
Tasks, reimagined. Set chores and routines, have them repeat daily or weekly, and share them across the family. Children earn stars for the things they finish.
Rewards. Turn those stars into real-life rewards you choose, like a film night or a later bedtime. Redeem in a tap and keep track of what has been claimed.
Lists for everything. To-dos, the weekly shop and any custom list now live together in one place, shared with the whole household in real time.
Family avatars. Give everyone a photo or a friendly illustrated character. Each person gets their own colour, so you can tell at a glance who an event, task or list item belongs to.
Child Mode. A simple, kid-safe view of the app, locked behind a household PIN.
Scan your receipts. Snap a grocery receipt to tick items off your shopping list and keep an eye on what you are spending.
A calmer home screen. Local weather, what is coming up next and the after-school run, all in one glance.
Your AI family assistant. Ask it to add an event, jot a list or answer a quick question, in the app or over WhatsApp.
Bring your calendars with you. Connect the calendars you already use and see those events beside your family calendar. Housemait only ever reads them, it never changes anything.
Plus a smoother sign-up, UK school term dates, and a long list of design polish and fixes throughout. We would love to hear what you think.
