PikaPika shows how many days have passed since each chore was last done. A chore turns red once it passes its due date. If you share it with the people you live with, it also records who did each chore and when.
Handy for chores like cleaning the toilet or the air conditioner, the ones I don't do every day and can never remember when I last did.

How it differs from a to-do app
Other apps won't update until the due date arrives. This app recalculates the next due date from the day I actually did it.
App Store review, translated from Japanese (5 stars, January 2024)Calendar to-do apps remind you on a fixed day, even if you already did the job. PikaPika can count from the day you actually did it, so the next one is 7 days after that whether you were early or late. For chores tied to a day, like taking out the trash, you can still repeat on a fixed weekday.
Next week looks busy, so you clean on day 6. A fixed-weekday reminder still comes on day 8, two days after you did it. With "every 7 days," the next due date is day 13, seven days after day 6.
You were busy and didn't get to it until day 11. A fixed-weekday reminder comes again on day 15, only four days later. With "every 7 days," the next due date is day 18, seven days after day 11.
With a normal calendar to-do, if you set it to weekly, you get reminded on that same day every week. If you put it off by three days, the next reminder comes four days later. Seven days after I last did it is all I want! This app solves exactly that.

I shared it with my partner, and now it's easy to see how often each of us cleans.
App Store review, translated from Japanese (5 stars, February 2026)PikaPika records who finished each chore and when, and adds it up each month. If one person is doing most of it, you can use the report to rebalance next month's assignments.
When you mark a chore done, a character shows a short message such as "Good job!" You can turn it off in the settings.
Cleaning work is about keeping things at zero, so clean is just expected. No matter how hard I work, nobody notices or praises me. This app is the only thing that does.

Reviews
Excerpts from App Store reviews. Most of our users are in Japan, so some are translated.
I like this app. It's simple to use and does not have a thousand unnecessary confusing bells and whistles. It lets you make a lot of chores you need completed and you can assign them to family members.
When I think "next weekend is busy, so I'll do the AC filter now," other apps won't update until the due date arrives. This app recalculates the next due date from the day I actually did it.
I downloaded this app a few days ago because I was falling behind on the household chores. I love how user friendly the app is, I was able to add my husband to a group so we can keep track of the chores together!
I used to lose track of which room I cleaned when, so I kept putting it off. The gauge shows how long it's been since the last time, so now I actually think "this room needs doing today."
I'm the type who clears notifications immediately, so I think "if I have to clear it, I might as well clean." I shared it with my partner, and now it's easy to see how often each of us cleans.
I also use it for pet care like trimming nails and changing water, and for washing the sheets. And since I can share it with my family, we can see who did which chore.
