FlyLady: Routines & Cleaning

Could be a 5 Star app. Give the ability to create/delete zones and add additional tasks to zones. We can change the tasks available but cannot add to the list if needed. Also a way to add list for things done once or twice a year or even seasonally like check fire alarms/extinguishers, sweep the chimney, winterize hoses. Not necessary but would be great to have all in one app.

Lists, zones, etc., are now customizable! This app works perfectly to help me get tasks finished in a timely manner, leaving me more hours in the day to do fun activities without guilt! My favorite daily activity so far is to set out / prep ingredients for my next meal ahead of time. If everything is ready to go, there's no reason not to cook the meal!

When I heard about fly lady years ago, I printed and set up the command notebook. It was too much. It was such a good system though! Some things stuck . The zones, the swish and swipe, the shining sink, launch pad. When I found out about the app, I immediately downloaded it This makes the entire system so much easier for my brain to comprehend. I absolutely love it. It is the exact same system in an easier to understand simple format. Excellent!

I had done fly lady for years had everything via paper . I fell off for a while as then they didn't have a app like this . It was so perfect it had the basics already written in in for morning after evening routine . I can add more . I was able to jump back into flying .I have been trying to find a constant system to check things off daily. This app is perfect and it resets daily . So you can access the things you didn't get to . Great Job 👍

I have loved this program for years and FINALLY there's an app that keeps me on track through the day!! LOVE that it's as streamlined as the program: start where you are and just get going. It makes it quick and easy to figure out what to do next without distracting frills or nonsense. Perfect for those of us who are easily distracted 😆 I can get what I need and get BACK TO WORK in a snap. Love the 15 min timer included right there, and the editable lists so I can personalize my routines.

This app makes the FlyLady cleaning system so much easier to follow than the plethora of information provided on the website. I love that it's customizable to my home (I do not have a fireplace or home office so I was able to delete those tasks and add others like cleaning the catbox, etc.) Love that there is a timer with the app. Just wish I could set reminders for certain tasks. It does remind you once a week, but let's be real...after Monday it's hard to stay on track!

My favorite cleaning app! It's so easy to use. I can customize each area to fit my needs. And if I skip around on the zones, it saves my progress. I've tried a few cleaning apps, but this one's by far the best. If you're new to FlyLady, I'd suggest visiting the website to learn what the "zones" and other lingo are all about. That's the only thing I'd change about this app, adding a glossary or a quick intro option.

I do like the look of the interface and the ability to customize most items... However, a couple things I wish I could do: 1: for the "weekly" tasks, I wish I could select which day of the week they showed up. 2: I would love if there was a widget to put on the homepage of my phone. 3: an extra little notepad or to-do list would be wonderful to be able to write down random things I need to get done that don't fit into the routines. 4: I wish I could set up a completely different weekend routine.

I was a FlyBaby in the very beginning and I'm just now finding the app. What a difference technology makes! I love the interface--so attractive and easy to use. No learning curve. I just opened the app and could start using it right away, which meant I could start tackling the chaos in my house right away. I also love that the lists are preset and also customizable, so I already have something to work with. And as always, FlyLady's daily encouragement is the magic boost I need to cheer me on!

Love! Edit/add zone items--so useful! Love checkmarks for routines/zones. (Kinda wish they didn't refresh daily, but such perfectionism goes against you are where you are--can't catch up on shining the sink if it is a daily task). Hope next version adds maintenance list items: check fire alarm batteries, change oil, check railings, etc. Also, weekly quick lists would be helpful: purse, car, errands, meal plan, etc. Maybe they are there. I just started using this version. It's awesome!

FlyLady is an easy way to organize daily habits I want to implement. There are no ads, unlike other To Do lists. It's rewarding to fill it in throughout the day and challenge myself to reach a certain number of completed tasks each day. I never reach all of them but this app has helped me get into some good habits and I hope to continue getting into doing more small healthy habits.

The Flylady app is clear, concise and easy! Download and go! It keeps you focused, has a timer & customizable lists for your household. Initially I typed lists & printed them off, but didn't always have them when I needed them. Then I made lists in Google's Keep Notes, but it took time to learn the app, how to organize the info, etc. It was easier than paper lists, especially to edit & I usually had my cell phone close when I needed it, but why bother? This app is a no brainer!!! You'll ❤️ it!

I'm a new user to the app, but have used Flylady methods on and off for awhile. It's REALLY nice to have a checklist of everything I need to do each day, and I love that I can add, delete, and reorder tasks. I really appreciate Flylady's encouragement to modify routines to make it work for me, and would love if the app was even more adaptable. I wish we could add another section of tasks, and I would also like to rename them. (Rise and Shine, Essential Chores, Goal Chores, and Evening Routine.)

Works great to help me stay on top of my routines, weekly home blessings, and zone cleaning. It's easily customizable. I can add or delete tasks on any list, delete lists I don't need, and add new list. I'm loving it! My only suggestions would be to add a meal planning feature, maybe a shopping list, and calendar.

I love Flylady! I used to follow her years ago, and decided to jump back on the bandwagon, then I discovered this app! SOO much easier than a control journal. Only thing is I wish the app would open more quickly, without the animated logo that takes 10 or 15 seconds. That's not much time in the scheme of things, but when you open the app multiple times in a day to check things, it adds up. Thanks!

My favorite app. It's basically a digital bujo. All of my homemaking lists, routines and more and all editable to suit my preferences. As soon as I am able I am going to upgrade to the paid version because the extra features are so worth it. What would make it better? Combine it with Chronometer, Cozi, Instacart and electronic banking so I can do everything in one app 🙏☺️.

I love this app! It has already helped me so much to get more done without stressing over it! The morning, afternoon, evening, and "weekly blessing" (whole house cleaning) routines give you a great start and can easily be adapted to what is important to you. My one and only complaint is that the built in timer is way slow. If you use it you'll be cleaning for way more than 15 minutes at a time. That's not a big deal, though because I can use my phone's timer.
