Cleaning apps are great to help us organise housekeeping tasks for the day, set up checklists for each room, and even pass on chores to other household members. But which ones are the best to download?

To help you keep on top of your cleaning tasks like a pro, we’ve researched the best easy-to-use applications that will help you efficiently get your house in order.

Take a look at our top picks…

1. Spotless

Feeling overwhelmed with endless cleaning lists? The Spotless household app aims to help you keep your home clean and clutter-free. It enables users to set up multiple home areas (such as the kitchen, living or bathroom, for example) and create task lists for each one. You can then tick off each task as they go along and create deadlines for when tasks need to be completed.

The app developers summarise: ‘If you have trouble remembering the last time you cleaned the air conditioning vents, or dusted the top of the bookshelf, or cleaned the door handles, Spotless has a perfect memory.

2. Tody

Suitable for both iOS and Android, the Tody app helps users to easily manage their household cleaning tasks. It aims to motivate users by turning cleaning into a fun game. As well as notifications to encourage you throughout the day, it will also offer the chance to claim credit for your actions.

On the app store, on user said: ‘I love this app! My house has never been so clean. You don’t realise sometimes that something you thought you did “last week” was really “last month”. This app really helps me keep track, especially of less frequent tasks that tend to get forgotten.’

3. Clean My House

This clever free app aims to help you organise your homes and schedule errands, too. The app will remind you each morning what needs to be that done that day to help you gradually tick off your to-do list. Whether you live alone or have a large household, Clean My House exists to provide help and order to all who need it.

It’s great for people who love making lists but prefer the nudge from daily notification reminders.

Game changer

I hardly ever leave reviews, but this app is amazing. It’s stopped arguing from my kiddo about how much he does, because all kids think they have to do everything. He’s wanting to compete with his dad. He’s shocked by how much I (his mom) does. His dad are neck and neck for chores. And the effort options allow him to spend about the same amount of time cleaning each day, even if he’s doing more intense things. He likes that because he doesn’t feel like hes doing less chores even though he spending the same amount of time working on them. We instituted a prize at the end of the week based on the tasks completed. I love that I can check his work when he’s done too. It keeps him honest. It’s also good because my husband and son are not both waiting for me to tell them what to clean. Which just isn’t healthy for a marriage to have to be telling someone else what to do NOR being the one being told what to do. This way everything is getting done. The effort calculators also helped my husband and I realize that we just don’t have the time to keep things as clean as we expect them to be. We’re hiring cleaners this week to come in 1-2 times a month to hit the stuff we’re just not getting to and it will make us feel like it’s worth it. I have also contacted the developers a few times with questions and suggestions. I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly they got back to me. I hope the app flourishes and continues to make improvements to stay relevant.

As someone with ADHD this app has been extremely helpful at breaking down tasks.

Normally when I tackle cleaning, I have “cleaning days” and spend the entire day trying to wash clothes, sheets, towels, etc. , in addition to any cleaning or deep cleaning I’m trying to do. As someone with ADHD, I can get distracted and overwhelmed very easily and it might take me 3 hours to clean my bathroom due to executive dysfunction. I love that this app breaks things down via room, and then has tasks (and custom tasks) within that room that you can complete. Keeping track of these tasks in this manner makes me feel like I’ve still accomplished a lot even if I haven’t entirely cleaned my bathroom or bedroom, because I know I’ve broken it down into bite-sized tasks.
I will also open the app when I have some downtime or am in the mood to clean and can see small tasks like wiping light switches or light fixtures, and might go ahead and take care of that because it’s quick.
It’s easy to stay motivated and not overwhelmed by the amount of things I have to do, and I still feel like I’ve accomplished a lot. My roommate also has ADHD and I think this would be helpful for her managing cleaning as well, and when I’ve already talked to my partner about the two of us paying for premium and using it to keep each other accountable whenever we live together.

Thank you for making this app accessible, cute, and easy to use.

*I have a suggestion*

I’ve gotten more done using this app then I have from trying to force myself or feel in the mood to do anything around the house and I feel more satisfied after each task because of the way this app is designed. It leaves me feeling productive, energized, accomplished, and helps me feel even more motivated after every single task. I wish I used this sooner because it has really been a useful tool in keeping me on track!

* I wanted to make a suggestion: It would be really nice if I could move the tasks by dragging them above or below other tasks easily to better organize them instead of having to “x” out of them and make a new one but other then that this app is the best app I’ve ever used for cleaning and am thinking about upgrading as soon as I get my next pay check! Thank you to the creators of this app you really changed my life for the short time I’ve been using it and can’t wait for the many more years to come!! I’ve been telling all my friends and they think it’s been so helpful for them as well! Thank you Creators of this app!!!! Keep being Amazing!!!!

How it helps: Done helps you create healthy routines by helping you set goals, tracking your progress, and then motivating you with streaks/chains. Unlike so many other habit apps, Done lets you set a goal and track it multiple times a day, not just one time per day.

I’ve tried several different habit tracker apps to monitor and increase/decrease the frequency of several activities in my life, but none of them come close to Done. A lot of these apps can have too many features, which I find gets in the way of successfully altering a habit. Done is simple, attractive and easy to use, while still providing a more than detailed breakdown of your habit statistics. When I found that I wanted to track a few smaller aspects of a certain habit, I discovered the journal feature. The journal feature was one of my favorite parts because it allowed me to write down the information and details about a specific day.

How it helps: OurHome is a new and simple way to organize your family. Kids will be motivated to do chores and take responsibility while parents can reward them for their effort. There’s a shared grocery list and a family calendar to keep everyone coordinated.

I rarely review apps, but this one deserves it. Trying to run a 7 person household is rough, but this app helps! I love this customizations available. I can assign chores on a rotating basis throughout family members, or set them to be always available, and everything in between. I love that you can have multiple admins, so you can share the responsibility of approving tasks and assigning them.

How it helps: Tody is a smarter to-do list for managing household cleaning routines. It will optimize and motivate your cleaning. You can organize cleaning tasks by need rather than date, visualizes cleaning progress for motivation, and turns home cleaning into a game!

There are three modes of cleaning. Relaxed, Standard, and Proactive. By choosing your style of cleaning it will automatically suggest the amount of days, weeks, or months for the preprogrammed cleaning guide. This is really amazing especially since it suggests things that someone might forget like washing your outside Windows or wiping down your inside doors. I highly suggest you just load everything in that is listed for each area unless of course you don’t own it…It’s well worth the money and the capsule colors keep you in line with what area needs the most attention. ..I love this app.

How it helps: This clever little app deciphers those mysterious laundry symbols on your clothing tags so you know exactly how to care for your clothes. Simple, but oh so very useful!

How it helps: TaskRabbit connects you with skilled Taskers to tackle home services and contactless errands around town, safely and efficiently. Popular tasks include cleaning, furniture assembly, moving, mounting, delivery, and shopping. Plus, they back all tasks with our Happiness Pledge so you can have peace of mind.

This is a much needed service for finding safe, qualified and professional person(s). The workers I have hired have been knowledgeable and extremely respectful compared with other similar online and off service referral companies.

How it helps: This is the perfect app for teaching kids about chores and money. With Homey you can pay kids commissions based on chores they do around the house like taking out the trash, cleaning their room, or mowing the grass. And you can also set responsibilities that are required to teach kids that everyone needs to contribute to the household.

Really love all the features this app has to offer! It totally makes our home run smoother and actually helps reduce the number of arguments over who has to do what.

How it helps: Create routine checklists, then complete them on your chosen days of the week, with reminders to keep you on track, and a gold star for each completed task. Your checklists can automatically reset – start fresh each morning, week, or month (no guilt trips here!) Free online editing and syncing between your devices. Home Routines is totally customizable and easy to use.

I have been using this for years now. I guess you could call it thoroughly enough tested that I can present my opinion. This is pretty much the best. I have about eight other to do apps I have tried, and two to do websites. The simple ability to say I do these things every day, and I want to check them off, as I do them, every day – why is this so revolutionary?

How it helps: Spotless is a clever household task manager that helps you to keep on top of your chores. Set up multiple rooms, and create task lists for each one. Then see at a glance how much each task is in need of cleaning, helping you to better plan your time. Easy to set up and use, a nice, clean, clutter free app. For a nice, clean, clutter-free home.

This app is so easy to use which is a great way to start. It helps by organising your cleaning schedule once you have edited the suggestions and added your requirements. It is surprising how much you can get done and how quick you complete the days tasks.

How it helps: For those of us paper to-do list people, Do! creates the same experience (or close!) in app form. It is a simple housekeeping to-do list app complete with realistic pencil & paper noises.

I don’t normally write reviews, ever, but this app deserves appreciation. It’s easy and straightforward, grouping your information and letting you also see it all in one place. I can divide my lists so one is for work and one is for groceries without messing with color labels, but when I want to tag my list of gifts or personal tasks with that kind of detailed coordination, I easily can.

If I just want to see some things first, like what’s due soonest, I can automate that, and if I don’t want it automated, I can pin whatever I want to the top so the urgent item isn’t lost in the stream of longer term thoughts.

How it helps: This app that helps you keep your home clean and organized. Create your house cleaning schedule to split your chores with your family and turn your cleaning routine into a game.

I have recently discovered that I’m 31 years old and need to start acting like it ☺️ Thanks to Sweepy I’m on my way! I respond really well to game theory motivation, so if there is a streak goal or little reward, I’ll do it! Ive been using Sweepy for cleaning, (and The Fabulous app for other areas of my life) and I don’t see myself going back to regular lists and my standard self-guilt motivation style. Not only does Sweepy help me create and keep track of tasks, break them into rooms and set time-specific goals (much more manageable that way) but seeing those little bars go from red to green is just about the highlight of my day 🙃

How it helps: Chores & Allowance Bot is an easy, fun, and super versatile way to keep track of your family’s chores, allowances, and savings goals. With Chores & Allowance Bot, children won’t lose or misplace paper money and you won’t have to keep track of allowances and chores by hand. Teach your children about saving, spending, and earning money towards goals through work and good behavior.

I don’t usually do these, but here it goes, this is my review. My wife and I have 8 kids. With that many naturally chores are a necessity just to make it day by day. Our 4 oldest ones cycle off with the major chores of the house (living, dining, kitchen and dishes). We had been trying to keep up with it on paper of who does what. This app, this wonderful app, has a feature that rotates an assigned chore to each child! No more keeping up on paper!! Plus we were failing miserably with keeping up on who actually did what for allowances and rewards and it was a real pain and sorry to say lowered the kids motivation levels…it’s a masterpiece of an app!

Ok window cleaner

I have been using the window cleaning service for the second year, I am satisfied with the quality. The cleaners arrive on time (sometimes even ahead of time – you can work on this), with their own inventory. After work, everything is clean, dry, nothing is spilled, dirty or wet in the apartment.

We are very glad that you like our work. We try very hard 🙂 We are always happy to help!

Problems with employee training

Were cleaned + – normal, were customers for more than a year. A pandemic has begun, in our family people on immunosuppressors due to a transplanted organ are at risk. We decided not to cancel, as the site says that the management takes care of safety, checks the temperature and the employees wear masks. But literally every employee had to personally say that they still need to wear a mask, and not only on the chin, as this is part of their duties. Once I said this to a girl 4 times, but she still took it off after 5 minutes.
We called support, they assured us that this was a misunderstanding and this would not happen again.
Of course it happened again.
The last time, after a polite request, the girl reluctantly put on a mask, but frankly refused to pull it over her nose, and then began to be rude that “if we are afraid, then we should not order cleaning at all, and if not, then we should allow her to clean without a mask” . Then she said that she always asks, and last time we allowed her to leave without a mask (which, of course, is a lie, we have a person with a transplanted kidney, well guys … we just believed the admin and no longer stood like Cerberus over the girls, obviously we missed that we had it all day without a mask, can you imagine if my husband got on a ventilator from this “misunderstanding”). This control should not be our responsibility: if they steal money, it is also our responsibility, what have we “not followed up”? The girl stood her ground, was rude, called and lied on the phone to the admin and did not understand the essence of the problem at all.
Since this is not the first time, we see a systematic error in employee training. Girls do not know at all that they must be safe. This means that when they come to you, they have already come into contact with dirty dishes and thrown away disposable handkerchiefs of possible infected (of all the families where they cleaned in front of you) and did this without a mask and awareness of the presence of the Corona. Rospotreb would have heard about this…
Conversations with the administrator, obviously, do not improve the situation. We understand that since there is this systematic error in employee training, there are most likely others. And we no longer trust this firm.

Thank you very much for your feedback! We apologize for this situation, tell me your full name or order number so that we can identify the contractor. Let’s retrain. Once again we apologize!

House cleaning

I was very satisfied with this service. I ordered a general cleaning, they came with their own funds, rags and a steam generator, everything was perfectly washed and cleaned. Housewives were cultured and neat. I plan to use it in the future.

Contact us, we will be happy to help!

Cleaning apps to help keep your home clean

Cleaning is such an activity that sometimes you need special inspiration for it. Sometimes we look for a thousand reasons not to start it, and when, nevertheless, the start is made, it turns out that it is already impossible to stop … As a rule, we always remove one schedule, laid down according to our habits and desires. However, if you want to facilitate such a routine event, then special applications and services created to make life easier will come to the rescue. I will tell about them.

    The range of topics covered by the application is limitless, and they are all related to the home. To make the search convenient, all tips and articles are divided into categories: technology, food, life, games, practical lessons, outside the home, etc. Therefore, if you need sensible information anywhere on how to clean a sink, replant a plant or bake a yeast cake, feel free to look for a hint in Instructables, especially since the application is distributed for free on Android, iOS and Windows.
