The Wash Guide
Read full descriptionHide full description
Nobody teaches you how to do laundry. The Wash Guide does, and along the way it works out what kind of washer you already are. Start with the dose. Tell it what's in the drum: the garment, the shade, the fabric, the load size, whether it's grubby or delicate, whether your water runs hard. It tells you exactly how much detergent to use and at what temperature, for pods, powder, liquid or sheets. Most people overdose their washes; the right dose cleans better, rinses cleaner and quietly saves money every single load. Your laundry room, on your phone. Keep your cupboard in the app and every logged wash counts down what's left, so you know a pack is running out before the morning it actually does. Price your packs and the app works out your true cost per wash. A catalogue that knows your shelves and travels with you. A detergent archive for over twenty-three countries: The United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, the United Kingdom and Ireland, and many more, with formats, enzymes and dosing profiles. Learn the craft. Step-by-step stain guide masterclasses, that adapt to the fabric you're treating, a symptom checker for washes gone wrong, a visual glossary of care-label symbols, and plain-English guides to drying, sorting and wash chemistry. Look after the machine. The app counts the loads since your drum was last cleaned, tells you when a maintenance wash or a filter clean is due, and keeps the record for the whole house, because everyone's washing wears the same machine. Nothing is ever called overdue; it's a job to do, not a failure to announce. Find out what kind of washer you are. The app reads how you actually wash, never a quiz, and mints your identity: The Eco-Alchemist who wins at thirty degrees, The Stain Slayer who runs towards the mud, The Wash Wizard who doses to the millilitre. Climb five tiers per identity, collect the trophies your habits earn, and once a month your Wash Coach writes you a message: one honest observation, one thing to try. Run the washing as a household. Share one cupboard, watch the chore split move as people wash, and assign a wash to somebody with a tap. The house keeps its own book: what happened this week, what's still to do, and every cycle this address has ever run. Talk to your smart home. The Wash Guide publishes to Home Assistant, MQTT and webhooks, so a finished wash can flash a light or a dashboard can show whose turn it is. Publish to your own hub, locally or through the cloud, and never to anyone else's. PRO, yours on any phone you sign in on. Recurring wash schedules that post themselves. An assigned wash that follows itself up, so nobody has to be the one who asks. The full savings ledger, in your own currency. A monthly recap from your Wash Coach. Your whole wash history, and the all-time story inside it: your record month and the day it all started. Room for twelve in a household you run. Smart-home control keys. Everything else above is free. Private by design. No ads, no tracking for advertising, and the calculator, catalogue and learning guides all work without an account. Your wash history syncs to the cloud only if you opt in, and you can delete your account and its data at any time, in the app or at thewashguide.app/delete-account. Laundry is a craft. Learn it, share it, and find out who you are at the machine. Subscription: The Wash Guide PRO renews automatically, monthly (one month) or yearly (one year). Your own country's price is always shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account on confirmation and renews each period unless auto-renew is switched off at least 24 hours before it ends. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings. Terms of use: https://thewashguide.app/app-terms Privacy policy: https://thewashguide.app/privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: The Wash Guide at Free against Stylebook's $4.99. The Wash Guide also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 months). Stylebook's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and chart position (#2 vs unranked). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
