About

Tuck

Read full description

Tuck is a small, fastidious being who lives in your phone and is very particular about bed linen. Leave your sheets a day too long and he will make a quiet note. Leave them a week and he will reclassify your bedding. Leave them a month and he will start writing letters to authorities he invented. He means well. Set up your rooms and tell Tuck what's in each bed. Sheets, pillowcases, duvet covers, comforters, pillows, mattress protectors. Each item has its own interval. Weekly sheets, every two weeks for duvets, whatever works for you. Freshness rings show where each item stands. Notifications arrive when something is due. A yearly review tallies everything up, room by room, with commentary from Tuck. Swipe to tuck when you change the sheets. Siri and Shortcuts if you'd rather just say it. Widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen. Pause tracking for trips. Shorten intervals when you're sick. Works on iPhone and iPad. Syncs across your devices with iCloud. No account. No tracking. Just your beds and Tuck.
