Any suggestions for a chore tracking / assigning app? Here's what features I'm looking for:
I know of Our Home, which ticks a lot of these boxes, but its UI is awkward and clunky. Any alternatives?
I think OurHome fulfills those needs. It definitely lets you earn points for finishing tasks, and I'm pretty sure you can redeem them for "rewards," all of which are customizable.
I haven't tried the redeeming points for rewards part yet, since my wife and I use it mostly to keep track of household chores. But it seems pretty straightforward.
Only part I'm not really a fan of is that it also wants to be a grocery list app, but you don't have to use that part.
I am now using repurposed Our Home - it's meant for home chore management, e.g. kids can get points for tasks like cleaning and then cash in for a reward (custom). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.getfairshare.ourhome
If you're like me, you might appreciate an app that reminds you of what chores to do when such as Our Home which is on iOS and Android.
The harder part is defining what something abigious like 'clean the bathroom' really means, but you could have separate tasks like clean the toilet every Saturday, clean the shower on the 1st of every month, etc.
If searching for it, you'll need to include Obedience + BDSM in the search area or it won't come up (for apple users)

Ooh, my daddy and I used to use Chore Monster but it was too buggy. It crashed a lot and had some other issues that I can't remember at the moment.. We're using OurHome now, which is less cutesy (though you do get adorable icons) but has many more options for customization and you can even share a grocery list!
Here's the iOS link and the Android link in case you or anyone else wants to try it. ��
Hi, mod from r/hoarding here. I don't know the full backstory of you and your SO, so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.
It's easy to say "I'll clean up", but if you're not in the habit, it's not always easy to know what to do or when to do it.
I recommend the following to start him developing the habit:
Of course, he has to be willing to use the apps and respond to their prompting. The fact that you're talking about him her on r/JustNoSO leads me to believe that the problems might be deeper. Still, I know that when I was living on my own at first, having a calendar and prompts made a big difference for me, and the above have been embraced by people who come to r/hoarders.
Good luck. I hope you're able to move out soon.
You can try a chore planning app like this one.

This looks like it has good reviews
I'm assuming something like this is not ideal because your data is not selfhosted ;)

So it looks like this app exists here, that's a bummer it would've been fun to develop
I found a couple of Android apps. OurHome and Clean My House. CMH doesn't let you assign chores, but you can create categories. You can simply create a category for each of you.
I have trouble relating to the idea of being unable to have a discussion with a partner (or family member or co-worker). Maybe I'm just insensitive. I don't see why you can't just tell her this is something that needs to be done for the good of your relationship.
Does she really just refuse to participate? Does she hold her breath until she turns blue? Does she put her hands over her ears and say "la la la, I can't hear you"? If so, maybe counseling is the way to go.
