Read full description

TaskBuzz is the social task manager for people who actually have to live, plan, and finish things together โ€” partners, roommates, families, small teams, side-project collaborators. Build a list. Share it. Assign tasks. Talk about them in line. And when something really can't wait, hit Buzz โ€” your friend's phone vibrates and lights up wherever they are. โ€” WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT โ€” - Comments on every task. No more dropping into iMessage for "did you actually buy oat milk?" โ€” the conversation lives with the task. Push notifications when someone replies. - Buzz: Tap the Buzz button on any task to shake your friend's phone with a custom vibration pattern + screen-shake animation. Rate-limited (2 buzzes per task per day) so it stays respectful. - Shared lists with smart sharing. Trusted friends are added instantly; everyone else gets an invite they can accept or decline. Co-members who aren't your friends can be added on the spot - Three views for three brains. "My Lists" for what you own, "Assigned to Others" for what you delegated, "Assigned to Me" for what's on your plate. Red dot indicators show unread comments at every level. โ€” EVERYDAY ESSENTIALS โ€” - Phone-number sign-in. One account per number, no passwords. - Due dates + time pickers with smart "yellow when due soon, red when overdue" coloring. - Recurring tasks: weekly, monthly, yearly โ€” every 1 week, every 3 months, whatever cadence you need. - Pin a task or a whole list to the top. - Copy & paste lists in and out: every line becomes a task, every task can be copied back to chat or notes. - Progress dashboard on your Profile tab โ€” total vs done, overdue, due-soon, a 7-day completion sparkline, streak counter, and a breakdown of created/delegated/on-your-plate. - GOD Mode: see your tasks, lists, and friends as one living, force-directed graph. Tap any node to drill in. - Voice intent shortcuts. "Hey Siri, add task to TaskBuzz" and you're typing into a new task. - Offline-friendly. Browse your lists when the network drops; changes sync when you're back. โ€” PRIVACY FIRST โ€” โ€ข Phone number, task titles, descriptions, and comment content are encrypted at rest. โ€ข No ads. No trackers. We do not sell your data. โ€ข Contacts access is optional and used only to match numbers you search. Your contact list never leaves your device. โ€ข Delete your account and all data any time, from Profile. โ€” WHO IT'S FOR โ€” โ€ข Couples & roommates running the same household. โ€ข Families coordinating school runs, groceries, weekend plans. โ€ข Small teams and side-project pairs โ€ข Anyone who wants a fast, social, get-out-of-the-way task list.

Read full description

Somebody in every home ends up being the one who remembers everything. The dentist appointment, the empty milk carton, whose turn it is to vacuum. Yem is a home management app that takes that list out of one person's head and shares it with the whole household. One calendar for the whole home. Appointments, activities, and plans in one place, so the week lives somewhere everyone can see it, not just in one person's head. Tasks without the nagging. Assign chores, set them to repeat, and let Yem do the reminding. Shopping lists everyone can add to. Put the milk on the list the moment it runs out, and whoever is at the store sees the same list. A place to talk it over. Group chats and direct messages for your household, away from the group-text chaos. The meals you actually cook. Save your household's recipes from a link, a photo, or pasted text. Yem works on your phone and in the browser, in English and Norwegian, light mode and dark. Your home's data belongs to your home. No ads, and we never sell your data. One subscription covers your whole household, sized by how many people live there. The first month is free. Questions? Reach us at support@yemapp.com.
