FairPlay assigns chores based on who's done less — so the balance stays fair. Track effort with points. Make the invisible visible.
One of you always ends up doing more. The other doesn't notice — not because they don't care, but because the work is invisible.
Planning meals, restocking groceries, wiping down counters, remembering the vet appointment. The mental load adds up. And when it finally comes up in conversation, it turns into the same argument.
“I do everything around here.”
“That's not true, I just did the dishes.”
The problem isn't laziness. It's that the mental load is invisible — and what you can't see, you can't share. FairPlay makes it visible.
Setup takes less than a minute. No account needed.
Enter your names, pick your colors. Takes less time than deciding whose turn it is to cook.
Choose from common household chores or add custom ones. Each task is weighted by effort — because mopping and cooking are not the same job.
FairPlay picks who's up next — based on who's done less. No negotiating, no guilt-tripping. The more you've contributed, the less likely you land the next one.
Taking out the trash isn't the same as meal-prepping for a family of four. Every task carries a point value based on real effort and mental load — so the balance reflects reality, not just task count.
A live dashboard tracks who's carrying what. When one partner has 70% of the points, you don't need to have 'the talk' — the numbers do it for you.
Choose from a wide range of built-in tasks or add your own. Walking the dog, scheduling the plumber, remembering to buy toilet paper — if it counts as work, it belongs in FairPlay.
FAQ
Direct answers about splitting chores, tracking mental load, privacy, setup, pricing, and how FairPlay helps two people share household labor more fairly.
FairPlay is an iPhone app for two people who share a home and want a fairer way to split chores. It tracks household work with effort points, makes the mental load visible, and assigns the next task based on who has contributed less.
FairPlay is for couples, roommates, siblings, or any two people who split household responsibilities. It is especially useful when one person feels they carry more chores, planning, reminders, or invisible work than the other.
FairPlay looks at the current points balance. The person who has done less household work is more likely to receive the next task, while the person who has contributed more is less likely to get it. Over time, this helps the split move back toward fairness.
FairPlay uses points because not every chore takes the same effort. Taking out the trash, cooking dinner, planning meals, booking an appointment, and deep-cleaning the bathroom do not carry the same time, energy, or mental load. Points make the split more realistic than a simple task count.
The mental load is the planning, remembering, anticipating, and coordinating that keeps a household running. It includes work like noticing groceries are low, remembering appointments, planning meals, buying gifts, or knowing when chores need to happen.
Yes. FairPlay can track visible chores like dishes and laundry, but it can also track invisible work such as scheduling repairs, planning meals, remembering birthdays, managing pet care, buying supplies, or coordinating appointments.

FairPlay is designed around a simple on-device experience. You do not need to create an account or send household data to a server to track chores and see the balance.
No. FairPlay does not collect names, scores, chores, or personal household data. Your information stays on your phone, and when you delete the app, the local data is removed with it.
FairPlay helps reduce chore arguments by turning vague feelings into a visible balance. Instead of debating who did more, both people can see the current effort split and let the app assign the next task based on contribution.
No. FairPlay does not replace communication. It gives both people a shared, neutral view of the household workload so conversations about chores can start from the same facts instead of memory, frustration, or blame.
Yes. FairPlay works for two people sharing a home, including roommates. If two people need to split chores and avoid one person carrying more of the work, FairPlay can help track and balance the load.
FairPlay is currently designed for two people. It works best for couples, co-parents, roommates, or two household members who want a simple way to share responsibilities more fairly.
Setup takes less than a minute. Add both people, choose names and colors, select common household tasks or create custom tasks, then start assigning chores based on the current balance.
You can track recurring chores, one-off errands, household admin, emotional labor, pet care, shopping, cleaning, cooking, planning, repairs, and any other work that helps keep the home running.
A shared to-do list shows what needs to be done. FairPlay shows who has been carrying the workload and assigns the next task based on effort balance, which makes it better suited for fairness, mental load, and household equity.
A chore chart usually assigns fixed responsibilities. FairPlay adapts to what each person has actually done, using points to account for effort and mental load instead of assuming every task is equal.
No. FairPlay can help before chores become a recurring conflict. It gives two people a lightweight way to keep the household balance visible, prevent resentment, and notice imbalance early.
