## What is Tended?

Your house needs about a hundred things done a year — the furnace filter, the dryer vent, the water heater nobody has ever flushed. Your car, your health, your money and your digital life need another hundred. Nobody ever handed you the list.

Tended did the research: 200+ things worth doing, each with how often and why it matters, most with a named source you can actually read. Answer a few questions and your year fills itself in — dates and all.

THE THINGS NOBODY TOLD YOU ABOUT
Half of adult life is maintenance nobody taught you. Dryer vents start house fires. Routers stop getting security updates. Water heaters die years early without a flush. Tended's catalog already knows — every item explains why it matters, and most cite a source you can check yourself.

FORGETTING IS EXPENSIVE
The average person underestimates their subscriptions by $133 a month. 1 in 5 Americans paid a credit card late fee last year. There's $244 sitting in the average American's unused gift cards. Tended exists so none of this is your job to remember.

YOUR YEAR, BUILT IN 1 MINUTE
A few questions about how you live — rent or own, car or no car, what you've been putting off — and Tended lays out the next twelve months. Everything lands on a date, spread out so no week gets buried. You open the app and see what today holds.

TWO REMINDERS A DAY, NOT FORTY
A morning brief with what today holds. An evening review of what's still open. That's it — no per-item pings, and nothing fires on an empty day. If something slips past you, it stays quietly marked so you can catch up. No red badges, no streaks, no guilt.

START WITH HOME. ADD THE REST WHEN YOU'RE READY.
Most people begin with the house. Car, Health, Money, Supplies and Digital are all in the catalog — turn them on whenever you want, or never. Your plan, your pace.

▸ 200+ researched items across Home, Health, Car, Supplies, Finance and Digital Life — each with background and a recommended interval; most cite a named source

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.3 — 2026-09-17

The things you didn't know needed doing now show up in your first month.

Also new:
▸ Step away mid-setup, and the capybara picks up where you left off.
▸ Rare things lead the day — the smoke alarm test before the vacuuming — in the app and in your reminders.
▸ Reminders are lined up a month ahead, so they keep coming on weeks you don't open the app.
▸ Add something from a day's + and you land right back on that day.
▸ New in the catalog: Clean couch. Cushions off, every 3 months.

Fixed:
▸ Checked-off days no longer turn into misses weeks later.
▸ Travel across time zones no longer shifts your days or hides what you've done.
▸ Changing how often something repeats no longer marks past days as missed.
