Daily Responsibility

Most household arguments are two arguments wearing one coat. One is about work: who cooked, who cleaned, who did the school run. The other is about money: who paid for the groceries, the vet, the tyres. Mixed together, neither can be settled: "I paid for dinner" is not an answer to "I cooked every night this week." Daily Responsibility keeps them apart. Every period gives you two separate splits, each adding up to 100%: one for effort, one for money. Maya did 55% of the work. Daniel paid 58% of it. Both are true, neither cancelling the other out. YOUR GROUP PRICES ITS OWN CHORES Cooking a meal might be worth 8 points, taking the rubbish out 2. The numbers arrive as a starting point and then you argue about them; that negotiation is the feature, not a step to get past. A household that has agreed a bedtime routine is worth more than vacuuming has already had the useful conversation. Logging what got done is then two taps from the list, and anything not on it goes in as a one-off. NOBODY SCORES THEMSELVES Log something for yourself and it waits for another member to confirm it. Log something for somebody else and it counts straight away; you are the second party, so the claim already has a witness. In practice, one person ends up keeping the tally for everybody, and that just works. If there is nobody who could confirm, nothing gets stuck: it counts. MONEY, IN YOUR CURRENCY Expenses carry a title, an amount, a category and a date. The group picks its own currency, its time zone and the day its week starts on. Percentages are worked out over a day, a week, a month, or any stretch you choose, and the history behind them stays open to everyone. CREDIT PEOPLE WITHOUT THE APP A child, a flatmate, a house-sitter anyone who is never going to install anything. Managed members hold a name and a colour, appear in the split like everybody else, and need no account. SETTLE IT WITH A DUEL Some arguments do not deserve a spreadsheet. Challenge another member to rock, paper, scissors: once they accept you both have five seconds to throw, and neither of you sees the other's choice until the round is over. There is a coin toss too, for the arguments that are really just a fifty-fifty. ALSO IN THE APP A message thread for the group, where a message clears five minutes after you have read it. Push notifications for the things that matter, mutable by category. A history of everything logged, with who confirmed it and who is still waiting. WHAT IS NOT IN THE APP No advertising identifier. No analytics, crash-reporting or attribution SDK. No location, no contacts, no microphone, no access to your photos beyond the one you deliberately pick as an avatar. No tracking permission prompt, because there is nothing here to track you with. What your group logs belongs to your group and is visible to your group. Delete your account and it takes your data with it. There is nothing to buy inside the app.
