I’ve searching a lot and I don’t know why but there doesn’t seem to be any chores app. No generic tasks App seems to have the ability to assign it to people or cycle chores.

I found one called Donetick but it is so bad that nothing works when self hosting it and it’s asking for a subscription to be able to send notifications?? From my own server to my own app?

I’m at my wit’s end because this seems like such a small addition to any of the hundred tasks apps out there but somehow it doesn’t seem to exist

    I personally have HA remind me to do stuff. An app I paid for years ago to remind me to do my drugs suddenly decided they where going to be a subscription app so I said F it and figured out how to do it in HA. I am a single lazy person who needs the encouragement to do things so I set up scheduled items to go off every ten minutes until I mark them as complete. If you have multiple people who need to do multiple things in a day I am sure you can set it up to only ring one device.

    ```` ```yaml alias: Watch Charge Reminder description: ‘’ triggers:

    • at: ‘10:00:00’ trigger: time actions:
    • target: entity_id: input_boolean.watch_charge_reminder_active action: input_boolean.turn_on
    • repeat: while:
    • condition: state entity_id: input_boolean.watch_charge_reminder_active state: ‘on’ sequence:
    • data: title: ⌚ Charge the Watch message: >- { [‘Watch needs juice, eh.’, ‘Gopher tech check: charge the watch.’, ‘Prairie tip: a dead watch cannot mark anything done.’] random } action: notify.mobile_app_csa_orbital_debris_tracker
    • delay: ‘00:10:00’ ``` ````

      I tried it first. Notifications don’t work, I can’t do automatic alternate assignments or repeating tasks. Have to manually keep reassigning and never “complete” a task

        I see, notification problems are often caused by battery optimization, which can be turned of, but if the features are not your jam I see the issue.

        I use it it the way, that each task gets a card with date etc., and I have three lists: urgent, to do, and done, and when I complete a task I drag and drop it to “done” so I have a list of what I “achieved” which makes me quite happy sometimes.
