Getting started

Everything you need to know to get your household running.

① create a household

A household is your shared space. Everyone who lives together joins the same one.

  1. Go to My Households and click Create a household
  2. Give it a name (e.g. "Flat 4B" or "The House")
  3. Pick a nickname for yourself in this household
  4. You're in — you'll see your 6-character invite code on the household page

② invite your housemates

Share your invite code with anyone who lives with you. They'll need to create an account first.

  1. Find your invite code on the household dashboard (top of the page)
  2. Share it with your housemates — by message, sticky note, whatever works
  3. They go to My Households → Join a household and enter the code
  4. They pick a nickname and they're in

Invite codes don't expire, but you can see who's joined from the household settings.

③ add chores

Each chore has a name, a frequency, and a rotation — who does it and in what order.

  1. From the household dashboard, click Add a chore
  2. Give it a name, pick an icon and colour
  3. Set the frequency — daily, weekly, monthly, or a custom number of days
  4. Set the due date for the first time it needs doing
  5. Add people to the rotation — drag to reorder who goes first
  6. Optionally assign it to a room or add tags to keep things organised

④ mark chores done

When you've done a chore, tick it off. The wabit hops it along to the next person and recalculates the due date automatically.

  1. Find the chore on the household dashboard
  2. Click the ✓ Done button
  3. It moves to the next person in the rotation and the due date resets

Anyone in the household can mark any chore as done — not just the person whose turn it is.

⑤ areas, rooms & tags

Keep things tidy by organising chores into rooms and tagging them.

Areas & Rooms — group rooms into areas (e.g. "Upstairs" contains "Bathroom" and "Landing"). Assign chores to a room so you can filter by location.
Tags — freeform labels like "quick", "weekly", or "shared". Add as many as you like to a chore and filter by them on the dashboard.
Manage areas, rooms, and tags from Household Settings.

⑥ your account

Display name & nicknames — change your name from the account page. You can also set a different nickname per household.
Leaving a household — go to the household settings and click Leave household. Your chore history is preserved for the remaining members.
Deleting your account — go to the account page, scroll to the Danger Zone, and follow the steps. All your personal data is permanently removed.
