How Evenhaus helps couples share housework

“I do so much around here” is a feeling.
11 points vs 9 points this month is a fact you can talk about.

Make the invisible work visible

Planning meals, booking the plumber, remembering the recycling day: they go on the list and earn points like everything else.

Split by effort, not by count

Five small chores can equal one big one. Effort points show whether your split is actually even.

Look at the month, not the day

Busy weeks happen. The monthly balance lets things even out without keeping a running tally.

Sample couples chore chart

A 20-minute chore conversation that works

  1. List everything, including the planning and remembering. Use our household chores list as a checklist.
  2. Say which chores you actually don’t mind. A fair split doesn’t mean identical lists. Swap freely.
  3. Rotate the ones you both dislike. Evenhaus hands them back and forth automatically.
  4. Agree to check the balance once a month, together, and adjust if it keeps tilting one way.

Questions from couples

Is there a free chore app for couples?

Yes. Evenhaus is free for both partners, with no member limit and no ads. It includes a couples starter list, automatic rotation and a shared fairness balance.

How should couples split household chores?

Make every chore visible, give each one an effort size, and agree which chores rotate and which belong to one person. Then look at the balance over a month rather than day by day, so a busy week for one partner evens out.

Does 50/50 mean splitting every chore in half?

No. A fair split is about total effort over time, not identical task lists. One partner may always cook while the other does laundry and the bathroom. Effort points let you see whether that adds up to a fair share.

What about the invisible work, like planning and remembering?

Put it on the list. Meal planning, booking appointments, buying gifts and keeping track of supplies are chores too. When they live in a shared app, nobody has to carry them in their head.

Less keeping score. More weekend.

Set up your home together in two minutes. Evenhaus is free for both of you.
