Dustly answers one question: what should I clean right now? No due dates. No overdue-shaming. Every chore has a rhythm — how often it wants doing — and a bar that fills as time passes. When it reaches the mark, the chore shows up in Today. Skip a week and nothing is "missed"; the list simply reorders itself. That's the whole idea: your home doesn't run on a calendar, and neither should your cleaning app. TODAY — A short, honest list of what's actually ready. Tick it, and the bar drains. Ticked by mistake? Undo. Did it yesterday? Log it after the fact — late entries count exactly like on-time ones. YOUR ROOMS — A heat map of your home. Every room colored by the thing that needs you most, so you can see where to start from across the hall. SMALL STEPS — For the jobs that feel too big to start. Dustly hands you one step at a time, full screen, with a timer that is permission to stop — not a deadline to fail. Stopping early still counts. TAKE TURNS (PLUS) — Add the people you live with. Give a chore to one person, or let everyone take turns; Dustly tracks whose turn it is and shows the split over the last 30 days. A statement of fact, not a scoreboard. WIDGETS — See what's next and your room heat map right on the home screen, and tick chores off without opening the app. Free, like the rest of the core. CHECKLISTS — Spring clean, deep clean and moving out, fully written with time estimates. Progress saves as you go, so a weekend job can take a month. SYNCS THROUGH YOUR OWN iCLOUD — Free, automatic, and private. Your home appears on your iPad by itself. No account, no sign-up, and no data for us to see: Dustly has no analytics, no ads and no third-party code. FREE, PERMANENTLY: unlimited rooms and chores, Today, streaks, Small Steps, both widgets, gentle reminders (one a day at most), the last 14 days of history, iCloud sync, and one full run of each seasonal checklist. DUSTLY PLUS (subscription, or pay once for lifetime): household sharing with turns and the split, history beyond the free 14 days, unlimited checklist runs, your own custom checklists, and photos on chores.
