Your house isn't dirty because you're lazy. You just can't figure out where to start. BrainSweep fixes that. Open the app, tap one button, and get a short list of cleaning tasks picked for you β€” based on what's overdue, what room needs attention, and how much time you have today. No planning. No chore wheels. No guilt. Just momentum. BUILT FOR HOW YOUR BRAIN WORKS Most cleaning apps hand you a blank checklist and expect you to organize your own chores. If you could do that, you wouldn't need the app. BrainSweep is different. It comes preloaded with 170 cleaning tasks across 25 room types. You add your rooms, pick which days you clean, and the app handles the rest. Every session is capped at 20 minutes by default (adjustable 10–60 min) so you stop before burnout hits. Tasks appear one at a time. Tap done, skip, or stop whenever you need to β€” no shame, no judgment. FEATURES THAT ACTUALLY HELP β€’ Daily Time Cap β€” Sessions stay short so you clean consistently instead of binge-cleaning once a month β€’ Smart Task Selection β€” The app picks what to clean based on what's most overdue, not a rigid schedule β€’ Flexible Cleaning Days β€” Pick which days you clean; the app skips your off-days automatically β€’ One Task at a Time β€” No overwhelming lists; just the next thing to do β€’ Streaks Without Shame β€” Your streak never turns red. Freeze tokens protect your progress when life gets busy β€’ 30 Badges to Earn β€” From "First Sweep" to hidden achievements like "Midnight Sweep" and "Leap Day Legend" β€’ Preferred Time of Day β€” Morning person? Evening cleaner? The app adjusts task order and energy level to match β€’ Vacation Mode β€” Set Normal, Light, or Off weeks when you need a break β€’ Deep Clean Day β€” When you're in the zone, unlock a full-room deep clean that bypasses time caps FREE TO START, $2.99 TO UNLOCK EVERYTHING Start with 3 rooms free. One $2.99 purchase unlocks everything BrainSweep has to offer: unlimited rooms, custom tasks, cleaning reminders, badges, and Deep Clean Day. No subscriptions. No subscriptions. No ads. No data collection. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS BrainSweep has zero analytics, zero tracking, and zero accounts. All your data lives on your device and syncs across your Apple devices via iCloud β€” free, with no sign-up required. Care tasks are morally neutral. Your worth isn't measured by your sink.
