Burrow turns your home into rooms and chores you can see, so nothing quietly piles up. Start on your own. Add someone later if you want to. ORGANIZE BY ROOM Set up your actual home: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and beyond. Each room has a progress gauge, so one glance tells you what needs attention. Tap into any room to see its chores, its history, and what's already been done. FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING Make chores that repeat daily, weekly, or on a schedule you build yourself. Add one-time tasks with due dates. Keep on-demand chores parked until you're ready. Going away? Vacation Mode pauses everything and shifts your schedule when you're back. FALL BEHIND WITHOUT FALLING APART Skip a week and Burrow won't bury you in red badges. Overdue chores wait for you, no guilt trip. Pick up where you left off. SEARCH THAT UNDERSTANDS TYPOS AND PHRASES Type "overdue kitchen" and get the right results. Filter by room, assignment, due status, or chore type in one tap. QUICK ACTIONS Your dashboard surfaces the on-demand chores you complete most, so they're one tap away. SHARE IT WHEN YOU'RE READY Living with a partner or roommates? Send them a code and everything syncs in real time. Completion charts show who's done what, so you can see the balance instead of guessing at it. Burrow is built for adults sharing a space: no allowance tracking, no gold stars.

좋은 루틴을 꾸준히 달성하고 싶으나, 실행하기 힘든 사용자를 위한 앱입니다. 달성하고자 하는 루틴을 최대한 쉽게 설정하고, 루틴을 실행하기까지의 과정을 체크포인트로 세분화 하여 루틴을 생성합니다. 달성하고자 하는 요일, 시간에 알람이 울리면, 사용자는 각 체크포인트에 해당하는 사진을 찍어 앱에 게시합니다. 체크포인트를 따라 사진으로 기록하다 보면 어느새 루틴을 달성하고 있는 자신을 발견할 수 있을 것입니다. 달성한 체크포인트 사진은 히스토리 앨범에서 모아서 보며 그동안 달성한 루틴을 한 눈에 돌아볼 수 있으며, 동기부여를 받을 수 있습니다. 또한, 사용자는 루틴의 성격에 따라 각 루틴을 그룹화 하여 특정 기간 동안에는 루틴을 비활성화 해두거나 모아서 관리할 수 있습니다.
