## What is Upkeep?

Upkeep keeps your home running: what's for dinner this week, whose turn it is to cook, and which chores are due. It's shared, so everyone in the household sees the same plan, live.

MEAL PLANNING
• See the whole week at a glance, or switch to a month calendar
• "Tonight" shows today's meal and who's cooking
• Add sides, a recipe link and a photo for every dish
• Tag your favorites and bring them back in one tap
• Save recipes straight from Safari or any app with the Share button
• Repeat last week, move a meal to another day, or swap two
• Take turns cooking: Upkeep suggests whose night it is and keeps a fair count

CLEANING
• One "Due" list for the whole house, most urgent first: overdue, today, and coming up
• Recurring chores (daily, weekly, monthly or any interval) and one-time tasks
• Assign chores or take turns: when one person finishes, it passes to the next
• Skip a chore this time without marking it done
• Quick Start sets up your rooms with sensible chores in about a minute
• Presets for the big jobs, like getting ready for a trip, hosting guests or a deep clean
• A calendar of what's coming up and who did what
• A friendly leaderboard with points and streaks

FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
• Choose who can add chores and who can plan meals
• Kids can still check off their chores and earn points
• Sign in with Apple. Invite your household with a six-character code.

WORKS WHERE YOU ARE
• Widgets for tonight's meal, the week's menu and the next chores
• Siri: "Add a meal in Upkeep" or "Mark done in Upkeep"
• Gentle 9 AM reminders, one per day, that update when someone else finishes a chore
• Designed for iPhone and iPad, with a whole-house dashboard on iPad

UPKEEP PREMIUM
