Donetick
Open-source task and chore manager for households and groups
What is Donetick?
Donetick is an open-source task and chore manager built for households and other small groups. Tasks can be assigned to the members of a shared group and rotated automatically, repeated on fixed or adaptive schedules, and rewarded with points. It is offered as Donetick Cloud, with a free Basic plan and a paid Plus plan, through iOS and Android apps, or as AGPLv3-licensed software to run on your own server.
Donetick has a free plan. Paid plans start at $4.99 per month, or $39.99 per year (Donetick Plus, US App Store). See every plan
Good for
- Families and roommates sharing a chore list with fair rotation
- Recurring home maintenance tasks on flexible schedules
- Home Assistant users who want chores to show up as to-do lists
- Self-hosters who want an open-source task server
Worth knowing
- On Donetick Cloud, the app lists notifications and reminders, real-time updates, API tokens, webhooks, file uploads and thing-based triggers as Plus-only.
- The site has no public pricing page. Plus prices here are from the US App Store; Google Play's US listing shows $5.99 to $39.99 per item.
- Self-hosting is free, but the terms leave hosting, security, backups and updates to you, with no support guarantee.
- The project's README describes offline support as very limited.
Key features
- Shared groups and assignee rotation
- Tasks are shared with a group of family, friends or teammates and assigned to one person, with the next assignee picked at random, by fewest assigned or completed, or kept the same.
- Plain-language task entry
- Typing a phrase such as "Take the trash out every Monday and Tuesday at 6:15 pm" creates the task with its dates, times and recurrence filled in.
- Flexible and adaptive recurrence
- Tasks repeat daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or on custom days, counted from the due date or the completion date. Adaptive scheduling sets the next date from past completions.
- Points, approval and history
- Completed tasks earn points for a leaderboard, and an admin can be required to approve them. A history records due dates, completion dates, notes and who did each task.
- Things, NFC tags and automation
- A Thing stores a number, a true or false value or text, and a change in it can trigger or complete a task. NFC tags mark tasks done when scanned, and a REST API and webhooks connect other tools.
- Notifications on several channels
- Reminders can be set before, on or after a due date and delivered through the mobile app, Telegram, Discord, Pushover or webhooks. On Donetick Cloud, the upgrade dialog lists task notifications under Plus.
