Question 1

What is Done When?

Accepted Answer

Done When is a household task manager for shared chores, recurring maintenance, and personal tasks. It helps people see whose turn it is, who is responsible, who completed a task, and when it was last done.

Question 2

Who is Done When for?

Accepted Answer

It is designed for households, couples, families, and roommates who share recurring responsibilities and want a lightweight way to keep them clear.

Question 3

How does chore rotation work?

Accepted Answer

A Rotation task keeps an ordered fairness queue. The member at the front is shown as next. Any active participant in that rotation can complete the task, and the actual completer then moves to the end of the queue.

Question 4

Can I assign a task to one person?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Assigned tasks keep one household member visibly responsible. If another active household member completes it, Done When records the actual completer without changing the assigned person.

Question 5

Can a task be open to anyone?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Anyone tasks can be completed by any active member of the household and do not maintain a turn order.

Question 6

Does Done When show who did a task last?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A completion records the actual completing member and completion time, and the task can show its last completion and completion history.

Question 7

Can I track recurring household maintenance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Tasks can carry a simple frequency signal, an exact expected interval, or a completion-based recurrence interval. Completion-based recurrence starts the next cycle from the latest real completion.

Question 8

Can I keep a task private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Private tasks are owner-only rather than shared with the rest of the household.

Question 9

Can I add details when I mark something done?

Accepted Answer

When enabled for a task, a completion can include optional notes, a measurement, or a duration in addition to the completion time.

Question 10

Can I try Done When without creating an account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The home page includes an interactive browser-local demo. Changes made in that demo stay in the browser and are separate from real household data.
