You set up the chore chart on Sunday. By Wednesday nobody's looking at it, and by Saturday the kitchen's a mess again and you're the only one cleaning it. Sound familiar? Tidywell is a chore tracker and cleaning schedule for real homes: ADHD brains, tired parents, kids, and flatmates or roommates who forget whose turn it is. No red warnings, no guilt trips, no 50-task lists. Just a little dollhouse of your home that glows sage green when it's tidy, a Today list sized to the time you've actually got, and a gentle nudge when your brain doesn't want to. YOUR HOME, AS A DOLLHOUSE Every room shows how fresh it is. Sage green when it sparkles, warm amber when something's due. Never red, never angry. Give rooms a new look with ready-made scenes, and decorate with furniture you buy with the coins you earn.
