Tend

Small care creates calm.

A calm micro-cleaning app for iPhone. A few tiny tasks a day keep your home feeling settled — no marathons, no guilt — while a little sanctuary, with a sleepy companion inside, grows warmer with every small act of care.

Cleaning that feels like care, not correction

Tend is not a chore app. It's a soft home-care ritual that turns upkeep into tiny, doable actions — and rewards you with a calm little world.

A few tiny tasks a day

Today shows a small plan that fits your time goal — five, ten, fifteen minutes. Done, Later, Swap, or undo. Never a wall of chores.

A living sanctuary

Every real-world task warms a hand-drawn room: light shifts with your day, dust motes drift, fireflies wander at night, and the candle glows when you've cared.

Companions & keepsakes

A sleepy cat — later a pond frog and a round bird — plus dozens of decor pieces earned through care. Place them, arrange them, dress your companion.

Big jobs become small steps

Three hampers of laundry? Break it down and Tend stages it one small step per day, inside your time budget. Backlogs spread out — they never stack up.

Gentle by design

No streaks to lose, no red badges, no guilt. Miss a few days and Tend makes today lighter. Rooms are rated in leaves, not grades. Silence is the reward.

Private by default

No account, no servers, no analytics, no ads. Everything lives on your iPhone and works fully offline. Deleting the app deletes the data.

How it works

Three quiet habits, one calmer home.

Set your rhythm

Pick your rooms and how many minutes a day feel right. Tend builds a realistic baseline — a home mid-rhythm, not a wall of overdue work.

Do one small thing

Wipe a counter. Clear the sink. Two minutes count. Tasks recur from when you last did them, so the plan always fits real life.

Watch your sanctuary grow

Leaves unfurl, stones settle, someone new moves in. As your real home gets calmer, so does the little one.

"Cleaning should feel like care, not correction."
