Tend is a home operating system: one calm place for everything you own, fix, and improve, with AI guidance that meets you at your skill level. ASK ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR HOME Tend's AI assistant knows your home: address, year built, appliances, project history, and the pros you've used. Ask how to fix a running toilet, whether a job is DIY-able, or what to do before a storm, and get an answer grounded in your actual house. KNOW WHAT'S WORTH KNOWING Daily insights tuned to your home and the weather around it. A furnace filter coming due. A freeze headed for your pipes. A treatment window closing for your lawn. The right nudge at the right time, with steps to act on it. REAL COST BREAKDOWNS Plan projects with material lists, where to buy, and what a pro would charge. Track what you actually spent and watch your DIY savings add up. YOUR HOME'S PEOPLE AND STUFF, ORGANIZED Every appliance with model numbers and care notes. Every vendor with history. Every document, from manuals to inspection reports, in one place. FIND LOCAL PROS Search plumbers, electricians, landscapers, and more, anchored on your address. WATCH YOUR KNOWLEDGE GROW Milestones mark the path from first project to home master, and the AI adjusts its guidance as your skills grow. TEND PRO The core of Tend is free: home dashboard, projects, inventory, vendor search, reminders, milestones, and a monthly allowance of AI chat and insights. Tend Pro unlocks unlimited chat, the full daily insight set, AI imports, and document summaries. $6.99/month or $49.99/year.

The app now lands on the Tend screen: your home's Pulse and a place to ask anything, side by side. Ask a question, see what's worth knowing, or just take in how things are doing at a glance. Your Home Pulse, now in three parts. The single score becomes one ring split into what matters: Care, Spaces, and Projects. You can see where your home is thriving and where it needs a little attention, with the next best thing to do always in reach. Projects, start to finish. Describe what you want to tackle and Tend builds a step-by-step plan, with tools, materials, and a rough cost, then walks you through it. Finish one and watch your Pulse rise and your Money Saved grow. A warm refresh throughout, in light and dark, with the middle tab now simply "Tend." Calm by design, as always. Tend shows you what's worth knowing, never more than you need. ### 1.3.1 — 2026-07-21 - Sign in with Google now works reliably. - Care Plan is here: open the Care tab and tap "Grow my plan" for a year of home care, spaced so no week feels like a second job. - Performance fix: resolved a background refresh issue that was using extra battery and data. - Polish across Worth Knowing, Milestones, the quick-add menu, and the splash screen. ### 1.3.0 — 2026-07-20 Tend has a new look and a new heartbeat. Meet Home Pulse — one living score for how your home is doing. Complete a task and watch it rise. Tend always shows you the next best actions to raise it, so you're never guessing what your home needs. A warm redesign, in light and dark. The new Rooted look — Paper by day, Evening by night — with five clearer tabs: Home, Care, Ask, Spaces, and Pros. Tend now speaks first. Optional notifications warn you before a freeze, heat wave, or storm reaches your home, and nudge you when care is due. Never more than a couple a week, always with the reason, always your choice. Point your camera at any appliance. Tend reads the label, identifies the unit, and files it in Spaces with what it needs to keep running. Sign in with Apple or Google — new accounts in two taps. And a Sunday digest that arrives only when there's something worth knowing. For everyone who subscribed to Tend Pro in v1: you get everything new, included, forever. Thanks for being early. ### 1.2.2 — 2026-07-14 Photo attachments in chat are fixed. Sending Tend a photo now works reliably — attach a picture of an appliance, an invoice, a tree, whatever you need a second opinion on, and Tend will look at it. You can send a photo on its own or add a question with it. Photos straight from your camera roll and screenshots both work now, whatever format they're in. Also tidied up some small alignment issues on the chat and sign-in screens. ### 1.2.1 — 2026-07-11 This update polishes the sign-in screen — the show/hide password control now sits inside the password field, and Tend remembers your email after you sign out. New subscribers can also start a 7-day free trial on the annual Tend Pro plan. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
