I’m looking for an app to manage recurring household tasks. Some things I do daily, some weekly, some twice a month. I want something that can show me what’s next instead of just a list of everything.

I'm not looking for a scheduler like Google Calendar. I don’t want to assign fixed dates or times to tasks. Instead:

  • Whenever I cross off a task, it should sit inactive until the next recurrence interval
  • Then it should automatically become active again
  • And I want the app to show me which task I have to perform next

Any recommendations for an Android app to notify me of recurring chores when it's time to perform them again?

The idea is to have a list of tasks which autopopulate based on their time since last completed. Those tasks do not have a schedule due date on them, but a recurrence interval. When the task is marked as complete the system will hide that task until the designated time has elapsed.

This means that when opening the app, you only see tasks that are “overdue” based on their interval coming back up. If I don’t complete the task today, it’s still there tomorrow. If I complete the task, it should not reappear until the interval is up, and that interval should not be dependent on the day the task was completed.

That's kinda what I figured, but I wanted to hear it from OP before making assumptions.

~~I think Loop Habit Tracker can do this... I'll check it out on my phone when I get a sec.~~

Edit: nope, it can't
