WeChores makes sharing chores simple and fair. Set up a space for your home, invite the people you live with, and always know what's due, whose turn it is and who did what. YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE Home shows what's overdue, what's due today and what's coming up. Check this week's progress, your streak and how often chores get done on time, all on one screen. SPACES FOR EVERYONE YOU SHARE WITH Create a shared space for your home, family or roommates and invite others with a 6-character code. Join as many spaces as you like and switch between them in a tap. Your Personal space keeps chores that are just yours private. FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING Make a chore one-time, daily, weekly, monthly or any custom interval, at the time you choose. See the next due dates before you save. When you finish a chore, keep it on its original schedule or count the next one from when you actually did it. TAKE TURNS, AUTOMATICALLY Assign a chore to one person, leave it open to anyone, or let everyone take turns. With turns on, the chore passes to the next person each time it's done. DONE IN A TAP Swipe to mark a chore done, or skip it this time. Record who did it and when, even if it was earlier today. Made a mistake? Undo it, or delete the entry later. ORGANIZED YOUR WAY Start with Kitchen, Bathroom and General, or create your own categories with custom icons and colors. Search, sort and filter to find any chore fast. SEE WHO DID WHAT Activity keeps a full history of every chore done or skipped, grouped by day. Each chore has its own history, with how often it was done, skipped and done on time. ANALYTICS THAT KEEP IT FAIR See each week, month or year compared to the one before, or look back over all time. Find out who did what share of the work, assigned vs done, which chores get done on time and which keep slipping, and how busy the week ahead looks. Filter by person to see anyone's stats. WIDGETS AND CONTROL CENTER Keep chores on your Home Screen and Lock Screen with My Day, Next Chore, My Day List and This Week widgets. Mark chores done right from a widget, and add a new chore from Control Center. REMINDERS Get reminded when chores are due, even when the app is closed. MAKE IT YOURS Pick a color and an animal avatar for your profile, and choose from five app icons, each with light, dark and tinted versions. Works on iPhone and iPad. EASY TO MANAGE Admins can invite and remove members or hand admin over to someone else. Leave a space whenever you like. PRIVACY FIRST Sign in with Apple. No ads. No tracking. Only the people in your space can see its chores. Delete your account at any time, right from the app. Privacy Policy: https://www.termsfeed.com/live/2163da8e-3458-41d1-9cff-388986e92b10

ThreadMapper shows what your Thread smart home says about itself. Most Thread devices are invisible. They just work, until they don't, and there's no way to tell which one dropped, which border routers you really have, or whether a quiet sensor is asleep or gone. WHAT YOU GET • Network health at a glance: an A–F grade with a clear score, and the specific issues pulling it down • Better than yesterday? A line under the grade saying whether today is up or down on yesterday, and which rule moved it • Every battery in one list, emptiest first, with the room • Your Thread devices, apart from the rest: the ones that say they are on Thread, and every other accessory labelled for what it is, behind a bridge or not yet known • Mesh map: your Thread devices by room, and the links they report • Offline alerts that respect quiet: a sleepy sensor gets two hours before it is called offline, and devices that go quiet together are one event • Device history: uptime, reboots and firmware changes • Apple Watch app: your grade on your wrist • Home-screen widget and Live Activity for at-a-glance status HONEST ABOUT ITS DATA ThreadMapper shows only what a device or the network states. A device is Thread when it says so. A border router is one the network proves. A line on the map is a link a device reported. iOS doesn't expose radio signal strength for Thread accessories, so there is no signal figure: a device's page shows how quickly it answered, in milliseconds. The battery level is what each accessory reports about itself. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No analytics. No tracking. Everything stays on your iPhone, and the AI features run on device. Your network data is never uploaded. THREADMAPPER PRO: a one-time purchase, not a subscription • AI Insights on any iPhone, and with Apple Intelligence a Network Assistant and a troubleshooter that reads this device's history, all on device • What the radios say: why a device rebooted, how often it changed parent router, how often a battery device wakes, and how many apps and households can still control it • AR room mapping and X-Ray: scan rooms into a floor plan, place each device where it really is, and see the links your devices report drawn through your real home • Your year on one card, your mesh as a film, and as an A2 poster a print shop will take • A year of daily grades on one calendar, no Apple Intelligence needed, a month of history, weekly reports, and when your home is at its worst • Export every health sample, daily grade and battery reading as CSV or JSON, and import them on a new iPhone • Jobs and evidence sheets: a page for a client showing what a visit changed, and a page per device for a warranty claim • Device groups, multiple homes, scheduled reports and a pinned-devices widget REQUIREMENTS ThreadMapper reads your network through HomeKit, so you'll need a home with at least one Thread border router, such as a HomePod mini or an Apple TV 4K. Border routers are found through Local Network access. The Network Assistant and the troubleshooter need iOS 26 and an Apple Intelligence-capable device; AI Insights works on any iPhone. Room scanning needs a Pro-model iPhone with a LiDAR scanner. Want to look around first? Turn on Demo Mode to explore the whole app with a simulated network, no hardware needed.

ThreadMapper's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 4 weeks) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
