The roommate chore app for a cleaner shared flat
A shared chore chart that lives on every roommate's phone. Assign the dishes, trash, and bathroom, send reminders, and let the leaderboard settle who is pulling their weight.
Why chores go wrong in shared flats
In a shared flat, nobody wants to be the person who reminds everyone. So the dishes pile up, the trash waits for whoever cracks first, and the group chat fills up with passive-aggressive messages.
The fix is not a better rule. It is a list everyone can see, with one name and one day on every chore. A roommate chore app keeps that list on every phone and sends the reminders, so nobody has to play house manager.
How MyChorito works for roommates
- A shared chore chart. Every roommate sees the same household chores in real time.
- Clear ownership. Each chore has one person and a due date. No more "I thought it was your week".
- Recurring chores. Trash every Tuesday, bathroom every week, fridge clean-out every month.
- Reminders go to the person a chore belongs to, not to the whole group chat.
- Points and a leaderboard show who is doing the work, so the conversation is about facts.
- A shared grocery list for toilet paper, dish soap, and the other things nobody remembers to buy.
- Shared expenses and bills with reminders when rent and utilities are due.
A roommate chore chart that actually lasts
Start with the chores that cause arguments: dishes, trash and recycling, bathroom, kitchen surfaces, vacuuming the common areas, and restocking supplies. Give each a size, Quick, Normal, or Big, and a person.
Agree to swap assignments every week or two, so nobody is stuck with the bathroom forever. Look at the leaderboard at the end of the month. If someone is far behind, it is a short, factual conversation instead of a fight. For more ideas, read how to split household chores fairly.
