ooring helps people who live together keep track of household chores and notice each otherβs effort. Create a shared space with your family, partner, or roommates, then add chores such as dishes, cleaning, laundry, taking out the trash, or any routine that matters in your home. When someone completes a chore, ooring sends a notification to the other members of the space. They can respond with a quick cheer to say thanks. Instead of guessing who did what and when, ooring keeps a simple shared record of household work and makes appreciation easier to send. Key features - Start with a nickname, no account required - Share a space with an invite code - Add household chores with simple icons - Record completed chores with one tap - Send completion notifications to members - Cheer for completed chores - Check recent activity and completion times - Supports Korean, English, and Japanese ooring also works well for people living alone. Use it as a lightweight home routine tracker and keep a record of small tasks completed each day.

Nook is a quiet corner for focused work. Set a timer, work in short bursts, and take real breaks in between. No character to feed, no leaderboard to climb, no streak shaming you for a day off. Just the time you gave to the thing you were doing. COMPLETELY FREE No trial countdown. No subscription. No paywall. No ads. There is nothing to buy in Nook, now or ever. FOCUS TIMER Work, short break and long break lengths are all yours to set. A breathing ring marks the session so you can tell at a glance where you are without reading numbers. Pause, skip a phase, or stop whenever you need to. STOPWATCH When 25 minutes is the wrong shape, count up instead. Take laps to mark stages inside one long stretch. Stopping saves the session to your history like any other. YOUR HISTORY See any day, week or month. A chart shows when you actually focused, and every session is listed with its start and end time. Plain numbers, no scores. OPTIONAL GOALS Daily, weekly and monthly session targets, off unless you switch them on. Missing one does nothing at all. GENTLE REMINDERS Pick the days and times you want to be nudged. Nook says something short and encouraging, then leaves you alone. MADE TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY Six alarm tones to choose from, or none. Light, dark, or follow the system. A quiet accent colour if you want one. Haptics you can switch off. Breaks that start on their own, or wait for you. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-in. No analytics. Everything you enter stays on your device. Nook has no server to send it to. Nook is for students, for people with ADHD who need a timer that does not nag, and for anyone who just wants a calm place to put their attention for a while.
