Donetick User Experience: Ending Household Chore Disputes
When it comes to household chores, every family probably has its own struggles.
"Is it my turn to take out the trash again?" "Why am I always the one cleaning the kitchen?" "When was the last time you washed the dishes?" — Sound familiar?
Today, I want to recommend Donetick, an app specifically designed to solve these trivial yet frustrating household management problems.
Donetick can automatically rotate task assignments—either randomly or assign them to the person with the fewest completed tasks. It's so fair that you won't even have an excuse to slack off.
However, I'm a bit concerned: if the guys dare to use this tool with their wives, they might end up doing all the household chores in the future.

User Guide
After installing the app, first register a user.

Enter the main page.

First, invite family members to join. It is recommended to create one main group per household where everyone is included.
Send this link to your wife (or husband).

After your wife's account receives it, click "Join Group".

You can see here that she has already joined.

Category Tag Settings
Use the tagging function appropriately, for example:
- Kitchen: Washing dishes, wiping countertops, taking out trash
- Bathroom: Cleaning the bathroom, restocking supplies
- Living Room: Vacuuming, tidying up, wiping tables
- Personal: Doing laundry, making the bed, cleaning the room



Task Creation Tips
Use the natural language feature to create tasks. Each task can be assigned a point value. Here are some practical examples:
Daily Cleaning:
- "Wash dishes every night at 9 PM"
- "Vacuum every Wednesday and Saturday morning"
- "Make the bed every morning"
Regular Deep Cleaning:
- "Deep clean the refrigerator every two weeks"
- "Clean the air conditioner filter every month"
- "Organize the wardrobe every quarter"
Ad-hoc Tasks:
- "Buy groceries tomorrow"
- "Fix the faucet this weekend"

You can view the points you've earned on the Points page.

Summary
If you're struggling with chore distribution, if you want to bring more order to your family life, and if you don't mind spending a little time tinkering with technology, then Donetick is worth a try.
It makes chore allocation fair and transparent, reducing unnecessary arguments.
After all, family harmony is more important than anything else.
