Bins out
A household of any size, or just you.
Say it once, know it’s handled.
When someone at home asks for something, it shouldn’t get lost in the chat scroll. Gentle reminders for partners, families, flatmates or just you, on your phone, your Mac menu bar or your browser.
Free for a household of up to two. No ads.
A picture of the app. Alex types “Bins out for Sam tonight” and sends it. Sam sees it and taps Got it, and the item on Alex’s phone ticks along with each step. When Sam taps Done, a notification tells Alex.
Partners
Send an errand once and see it picked up, not sunk under the photos.
Families
One calm place for what needs doing, each item addressed to its person.
Flatmates
A request that’s its own thing, not a line in the house chat.
Just you
A household of one is a whole household. Remind yourself, with a deadline behind it.
The loop
Four taps end the wondering.
Six small steps, and only the person a step belongs to can move it. Nothing infers, guesses or watches. Scroll, and watch one item travel.
01 · Capture
One text box, or your voice.
“Cat food and milk for Sam before work” becomes an item with chips for Sam, for before work, for the groceries list. No form, no confirm step, four seconds to undo.
02 · Sent
Off your mind, on their radar.
Every moment carries a deadline behind it, so the reminder still arrives even when the moment itself doesn’t.
03 · Seen
One moment, on one item.
Sam opens it, and that’s the whole of this state. No read marks on everything else, no last-seen, no location map, no feed.
04 · Got it
A quiet “I’m on it”.
Sent by tapping the notification. Nobody has to open the app, and from here the item stops asking.
05 · Done
A silent ping back: handled.
No nagging, no asking a third time. Can’t works the same way, and offers the item straight back to you.
06 · Thanks
That’s the whole reward system.
One tap back to whoever sent it. No points, no streak, no score to keep. If a deadline passes unacknowledged, the sender gets one quiet badge, and the receiver gets no louder alarm unless they chose one.
Moments
Deliver at a moment, guarantee with a time.
A moment is the trigger; the deadline is the promise. Every item shows both, so a detector that misses is a late reminder rather than a missing one.

Location moments, coming
Everywhere you are
It reaches your desk, not just your pocket.
You’re heads-down on a laptop when someone asks for something. On your phone alone, that’s the one place you aren’t looking. So it finds you where you are.
Your phone
Android today, iPhone next. Tap Got it right from the notification.
Your Mac menu bar
A quiet popover, not another window. It appears, you tap Got it, it’s gone.
The web & your browser Extension coming
One link, no install. A Chrome extension for desk hours is next.
Inside the app
Calm, on purpose.

Why not WhatsApp
You already tried the group chat.
An errand dropped into forty messages of plans, photos and memes has to compete — and it loses. Your home deserves its own calm channel.
Sent doesn’t mean handled.
Sent, seen, got it, done.
Each state a deliberate tap by the person it belongs to.
It arrives whenever you typed it.
It arrives at the moment.
Before work, on the way out, at the shop — with a deadline behind it.
It looks like forty other pings.
It has its own channel.
One nudge per item. Never two pushes to one phone inside ten minutes.
It lives in one person’s head.
The thought is handed over whole.
What, for whom, by when, where — in one gesture.
What we left out
The things Heard & Handled will not do.
Points, streaks, leaderboards
Earning points for laundry isn’t motivating at 35, and a fairness score turns a household into a scoreboard.
Read receipts on everything
Seen is one state on one item, and only the person it was sent to can make it. Nothing else is watched, and nothing about who looked is kept after it.
A map of where anyone is
Location moments run on the reminded person’s device, opt in, and log the event — not the place.
Ads
Adverts inside something this domestic are the fastest way to lose the room. Never.
A chat to move into
Your conversation stays where it already is. A chat would hide the state that is the whole point.
A paywall in the way of sending
