Family tasks in one place with Zenframe Tasks
All family tasks in one place — not scattered across sticky notes, texts, and memory.
Most households run on a patchwork system: one parent tracks what needs doing, the other assumes it's covered, and the kids don't ask. A sticky note chart works until it falls off the wall. A group chat works until it's buried under thirty other messages. Zenframe gives every member of the household a single shared view of what needs to happen, who owns it, and when it's due.
The term 'mental load' has entered everyday conversation for a reason. In two-income households — now the majority in the UK — the invisible work of tracking tasks falls disproportionately on one person. That's not a personality issue, it's a system issue. A chore wheel template printed from the internet doesn't solve it. Neither does a shared spreadsheet that no one updates after the first week.
Zenframe lets you create tasks, assign them to a specific person, set a due date, and mark them as recurring. Once something is done, it's checked off. Everyone in the household sees the same live view. The Sunday-evening conversation about who does what on Monday morning gets shorter because the answer is already visible. Saturday cleaning, weekly bins, school-night lunches — all of it sits in one place rather than in someone's head.
Apps like Cozi and OurHome cover similar ground, but they're broad-purpose family organisers. Zenframe integrates tasks with the family calendar, meals, and scheduling in a single app. You're not switching between tools to see whether the grocery run and the school pickup overlap with whoever's supposed to clean the bathroom this week.
FAQ
Is this different from just using a shared notes app?
A notes app doesn't send reminders, doesn't assign ownership to a person, and doesn't handle recurrence. Zenframe tracks all three, and the task list connects to the rest of your family calendar.
Can kids use it too?
Yes. You can assign tasks to children and they can mark them complete. It's the same shared view for everyone in the household, regardless of age.
