Erik of Root Simple is a self-identified member of the untidy tribe. As such, he is trying different ways to leave the club. He has been trying an iPhone app called Tody (a mash up of today, tidy, and to-do, I guess). Here's his review<./a>
Tody gives you a room by room schedule for tasks such as cleaning the bathroom sink, dusting the living room and wiping down electronics. You can create your own custom tasks. For instance, I made a reminders to change the cat's water and sweep the front porch.
Setup is simple and the app suggests common sense cleaning intervals (which you can also customize to your own taste). The app generates a daily to-do list and has a kind of red, yellow and green color warning system. The interface is clean and simple, like a well tended house. Other apps that I tried had too many reminders, cluttered interfaces, distracting ads and annoying notifications. We untidy tribe members are easily distracted from our cleaning tasks and don't need an app that offers temptations to sit on the couch and slack off.
