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.

DayPace is a calm, personal work-hours tracker for iPhone and Apple Watch. Track your workday without turning it into a spreadsheet. Start work, pause for breaks, resume, and finish with one tap. Forgot to tap? Add the time you meant with a simple “At…” entry. DayPace gives you a clear daily dashboard with your current state, worked time, break time, remaining time, target progress, and a complete-by estimate. Set your daily target, then let the app keep the record clean. The timeline turns your day into something you can actually understand: work blocks, break blocks, a Now marker, and a target marker. Tap a block or entry to safely edit or delete a mistaken time. On Apple Watch, DayPace is built for quick wrist-based tracking. Start work, start breaks, resume, and finish without pulling out your phone. A Watch complication shows today’s progress from the watch face. Your hours stay backed up with private iCloud backup and recovery. Phone and Watch sync are designed to be clear and reviewable, with simple conflict handling when device timelines disagree. DayPace also includes a Data & Backup screen with iCloud status, pending events, CSV export, JSON backup export, and JSON import. DayPace Pro unlocks tracking, Apple Watch access, backup, and timeline editing. If Pro access lapses, your saved hours remain visible and exportable. Simple by design: one job, clear hours, no clients, projects, invoices, or payroll clutter. Your workday, clearly kept.
