Explore released features, improvements, and fixes. This page uses the same version history as HouseKeepr, so published updates appear here automatically.
v2.96.0Oct 11, 2026
FixedRemoved the completion performer name from the Chores page's last-completed card labels to prevent text overflow. Completion dates and card dimensions are unchanged; performer details remain visible on each chore's details page.
FixedFixed Back on Track readability in light themes by using theme-aware text, background, and border colors. No changes to cleaning tasks, progress, or controls.
v2.95.0Oct 10, 2026
FixedRemoved the redundant Stop for now button from Back on Track. Recovery progress continues to save automatically across tab changes and return visits, while the four task-response controls and optional Everyday Cleaning transition remain unchanged.
v2.94.0Oct 10, 2026
FixedImproved Back on Track with a complete bed-making step first in bedrooms, distinct first actions for kitchens, bathrooms, and living rooms, more prominent room names, smaller task text, and detailed localized Why this helps explanations tailored to each action instead of repeating generic tips.
v2.93.0Oct 10, 2026
FixedSimplified Back on Track to show the first useful cleaning step immediately, with the familiar completion options and no room or furniture setup questions. Corrected room priority to restore the main bedroom, kitchen, main bathroom, and living room before secondary bedrooms and bathrooms; another option now changes rooms without recording a skipped chore.
v2.92.0Oct 10, 2026
AddedRedesigned Back on Track as a room-first guided recovery journey with confirmed room purposes, predictable high-value room order, independently useful small steps, separate room switching, functional milestones, explicit object confirmations, and resumable private progress without changing Home IQ or cleaning history.
AddedPersonalized guided Back on Track step order from repeated recovery choices on separate days, preferring familiar or easier approved actions while keeping skipped steps optional, learning private, and Home IQ, chores, and safety rules unchanged.
v2.91.0Oct 10, 2026
AddedAdded a voluntary Gentle Re-entry view after Back on Track, showing up to three manageable chores for up to 72 hours while keeping the full Today plan and all overdue Home IQ data unchanged and accessible.
v2.90.0Oct 10, 2026
AddedAdded an optional Back on Track to Everyday Cleaning handoff that offers one verified, estimated 10-minute-or-less chore after meaningful recovery progress, without showing the entire backlog or changing Home IQ predictions.
v2.89.0Oct 10, 2026
AddedExpanded Back on Track Room Knowledge to recognize 27 household object types from safe custom-chore names across all eight languages, including kitchen islands and TV stands, without changing automatic chore completion or Home IQ evidence.
v2.88.0Oct 9, 2026
FixedReverted experimental public-page SEO crawler changes, restoring the prior HouseKeepr build, routes, and guide behavior.
v2.87.0Oct 9, 2026
AddedAdded 28 independently generated, crawler-readable HTML pages for all public features and guides, preserving approved Base44 SEO and OG images, the existing visual design, and React progressive enhancement; added static build and crawler checks.
v2.86.0Oct 9, 2026
FixedAllowed public cleaning guides to render without waiting for unrelated authentication and settings requests, and added an on-demand Googlebot HTML audit to catch incomplete Base44 prerender output without changing access to private pages.
v2.85.0Oct 9, 2026
FixedStandardized the recovery guides' inline article links to display the exact destination titles and added link, sitemap, and release-history regression checks.
v2.84.0Oct 9, 2026
AddedPublished three free recovery guides for overwhelming homes, cleaning after falling behind, and low-energy housework, with related reading and a contextual final call to action.
AddedAdded Back on Track guided recovery with gentle rest, skip, and completion options, keeping small recovery actions separate from full chore completion.
AddedAdded Room Knowledge that recognizes household objects from existing room chores and remembers user-confirmed object corrections without guessing unseen furniture.
ChangedRefined Back on Track with a task-value assessment that favors useful finished actions and rejects partial cleaning, laundry cascades, and extra follow-on work.
ChangedExpanded Back on Track's Why this helps explanations with practical reasoning and safer step prerequisites in all eight supported languages.
FixedRegistered all three recovery guides as explicit Base44 SEO pages with approved 1200 × 630 social images, shorter SEO titles, and sitemap and IndexNow coverage.
v2.83.0Oct 2, 2026
ChangedRewrote the analytics cookie disclosure to explain the tracking disabled by Decline without presenting internal product measurement or brand-specific change messaging
v2.82.0Oct 2, 2026
ChangedDecoupled internal Home IQ performance records from optional analytics consent, while making Google and Base44 app-usage analytics opt-in and clarifying the cookie banner and Privacy Policy
v2.81.0Oct 2, 2026
ChangedUnified IQ Performance reporting into six subject areas with 34 measures and trend series, placing prediction, learning, supply, and household calculations alongside existing operational measures with their definitions and data-quality context
v2.80.0Oct 1, 2026
ChangedMonthly Home Review now displays Home IQ with its 100-point scale so the score is understandable in context.
FixedMonthly Home Review → Supplies to check now respects a supply's current inventory cycle, preventing newly added or newly replenished supplies with no usage evidence from being incorrectly flagged as low.
FixedMonthly Home Review → Looking Ahead now formats predictions through HouseKeepr's standard prediction headline logic and filters empty prediction rows.
v2.79.0Sep 30, 2026
AddedAdded guided Add Chore creation that walks from chore creation through room assignment and optional supply assignment.
AddedAdded tappable Room IQ and Task IQ meters on room, chore, and learned-insight detail surfaces with contextual explanations of what Home IQ has learned.
AddedAdded guided Add Room creation that walks from room naming through optional chore creation and supply assignment before finalizing the room.
ChangedRedesigned Rooms and Chores into compact mobile-first cards with integrated IQ, status, room, chore, and supply context.
ChangedRedesigned Insights → What HouseKeepr Has Learned around New and Updated observations, clearer Chore/Supply classification, structured detail pages, learned-history timelines, and compact evidence metrics.
ChangedReplaced Insights → Last Completed with Longest Overdue, a larger internally scrollable timeline prioritizing never-completed and most-overdue chores; timeline color now reflects actual days since completion from red through green.
ChangedStandardized chore-completion date controls across Today Log a Chore and Chore Details, defaulting to the current date without overflowing the card.
ChangedStandardized room, chore, and learned-insight detail navigation around the persistent Back header while keeping bottom navigation usable from detail pages.
FixedRestored Room IQ and Task IQ tap behavior across Rooms, Chores, Room Details, Chore Details, and learned-insight details after interaction regressions.
FixedRestored the Scroll for more indicator to What HouseKeepr Has Learned without changing the card's internal scrolling behavior.
FixedCorrected learned-insight supply imagery so protected supply images resolve on supply detail observations.
FixedPrevented Add Supply from automatically focusing its text field and opening the mobile keyboard before user interaction.
FixedRemoved duplicate close controls and corrected auto-open dropdown behavior in Add Room, Add Chore, and chore-filter dialogs.
FixedRestored the compact bottom navigation footprint after regressions that reintroduced extra space beneath the icons.
v2.78.0Sep 27, 2026
AddedAdded a localized cross-page HouseKeepr overview tour that introduces every main destination, begins and ends at the route-aware Help control, and can be relaunched from Settings or Help
ChangedRemoved retired priority-space/starter-plan onboarding code and obsolete Monthly Home Review sharing strings so future documentation and localization work cannot accidentally revive retired behavior
ChangedAudited Help, page tours, profile/setup guidance, and all eight language sets against the current app; refreshed Vacation Mode, Household Insights, Supply Closet controls, profile photo editing, barcode-first Supply IQ, Preferred Stores, Monthly Home Review print/PDF behavior, and current redo-setup behavior
ChangedReworked Home IQ setup around the home’s real Rooms, Chores, optional Supplies, and preferences: first-time setup requires at least three real rooms, redo setup has no room minimum, edits made during setup are real home changes, and the final screen links directly to Today, home adjustment, or the HouseKeepr overview tour
FixedCorrected remaining Vietnamese translation quality issues found during the documentation audit, including spacing and misleading machine-translated wording
FixedAdded semantic regression coverage so Help/tours cannot re-advertise inactive price tracking, Monthly Home Review sharing, the old no-tour Help behavior, or the retired redo-setup model
v2.77.0Sep 26, 2026
AddedAdded inline email-verification recovery to Login: unverified accounts can resend the verification code, enter the six-digit code on the login card, verify, and continue through the normal post-login flow
AddedAdded a dedicated Household section to Insights for accepted shared-household members with Household Activity Over Time, Room Coverage by Household, Shared vs. Individual Cleaning, Shared Session Activity, Household Work Mix, and Fair Share grouped with the household analytics
ChangedMoved the setup-tour Build my Home IQ action directly below the welcome copy so the primary first-step action is visible with the introduction instead of appearing as a detached footer control
FixedRestored Restock List product images for supplies using protected private image storage
FixedPrevented the HouseKeepr wordmark from overlapping header Help/Tour controls at 110% and larger interface text sizes while leaving real interface text scaling intact
FixedChores now preserves the active room/filter/search state when returning from Chore Details with browser Back while still resetting filters on a true page reload
FixedRestored desktop Learning Priorities to its intended top-aligned position beside Today content
v2.76.0Sep 26, 2026
FixedRestored the expanded Supply Closet Room filter presentation so the contextual Room label stays on the same line beside the dropdown with compact spacing, while the dropdown itself starts at All rooms.
FixedRemoved the accidental empty __noop_invalid__ entity schema from GitHub; Base44 then synchronized the deletion automatically, eliminating the unused live entity without a separate manual schema deletion.
v2.75.0Sep 26, 2026
FixedPublic SEO and indexing maintenance now tracks the current metadata sources in the GitHub IndexNow workflow, hardens crawler-visible SEO QA against generic fallback metadata and canonical drift, refreshes the 30-page Base44 SEO reference, and gives Shared Cleaning Sessions its own explicit public route so Base44 can bind the page-specific SEO/OG settings instead of prerendering the generic Feature Detail metadata.
v2.74.0Sep 26, 2026
AddedExpanded Supply Closet now adds compact Search supplies, Filter by Room, and Sort by controls while the closet is open, making larger supply lists faster to narrow without changing the collapsed summary view.
ChangedConsolidated changelog bookkeeping around the live ChangelogEntry release history: removed the duplicate src/CHANGELOG.md, kept one clearly non-authoritative root Markdown mirror, updated documentation and tests to use it, and added regression coverage preventing a second changelog file from being reintroduced.
v2.73.0Sep 25, 2026
AddedStandalone homes can now choose Relaxed, Balanced, or Always Ready under Settings → Home IQ Setup, while shared households continue using the creator-controlled household maintenance style.
AddedVacation Mode is now available in Settings → Home IQ Setup, pausing chore urgency and routine aging while preserving Home IQ history and prompting users to resume normal tracking when they return.
AddedShared Cleaning Sessions let household members run 30-minute, 1-hour, or open-ended Cleaning Day sessions with live participation, chore claiming, Fair Share-guided suggestions, household progress, completion attribution, personal timing correction, and session notifications.
AddedExpanded Settings → Profile with editable identity controls and profile photos, including a circular crop-and-zoom preview before upload; profile identity and photo changes propagate to Friends and Household avatar surfaces.
AddedUpgraded Fair Share with effort-weighted household balancing and a shared Household Responsibility setting on Chore Details, allowing authorized households to assign fixed responsibility while balancing remaining shared work by estimated duration, recent workload, and learned familiarity.
ChangedRedo setup is now safe for established homes: rerunning Home IQ setup retunes preferences without automatically adding or changing existing rooms, chores, supplies, or history, with suggested additions offered separately at the end.
ChangedThe Supply Closet header now labels its collapsed and expanded states as Open Closet and Close Closet beside the existing chevron for clearer interaction.
ChangedHome maintenance style now explains its actual behavior directly: Relaxed waits longer before surfacing chores for attention and Always Ready surfaces them sooner, without changing what Home IQ learns from the home’s real routine.
ChangedRemoved the redundant informational Household balance card; Fair Share remains the active workload-balancing experience and Household tour guidance no longer points to the removed card.
FixedHousehold Responsibility on Chore Details now keeps all accepted adults from the active household available even when the protected options request is delayed or incomplete, with reads and writes explicitly scoped to the active household.
FixedInsights → Last Completed now prioritizes never-completed chores first, then sorts completed chores from longest-since-completion to most recent so the items needing attention rise to the top.
FixedSupply Details and its Used for list now use HouseKeepr's hidden-scrollbar internal scrolling instead of displaying browser-default scrollbars.
FixedCorrected the learned-prediction maintenance-style offset so Always Ready brings predicted chore attention forward and Relaxed gives it more breathing room, matching the existing no-prediction thresholds without altering Home IQ's learned prediction date.
FixedAdd Existing Supplies dialogs now use HouseKeepr's hidden-scrollbar internal scrolling with the floating Scroll for more cue instead of the browser's native scrollbar.
v2.72.0Sep 23, 2026
AddedAdded canonical product identity linkage for supplies, including reusable GTIN-based identities, confidence and confirmation handling, normalized package quantities, and safe exact-match linking for existing supplies.
AddedAdded provider-neutral retailer listings so canonical products can carry approved retailer-specific identifiers independently of household Supply data and future retailer APIs can plug into one shared mapping layer.
AddedAdded exact-product retailer handoffs and privacy-conscious outbound shopping analytics; Amazon uses a known ASIN when available while other handoffs use product-focused searches and always respect the user's Preferred Stores order.
AddedExisting supplies now expose Package count in Inventory so multipacks can tell Supply IQ how many individual units arrive in one purchased package without requiring users to maintain an on-hand ledger.
AddedNo-barcode supplies can now use an optional private household product photo, with optimized external image storage and automatic cleanup when the associated supply is deleted.
ChangedPreferred Stores now drive retailer handoff priority independently of affiliate status, while Amazon attribution remains on approved Amazon links.
ChangedSupply and Insights guidance no longer presents price history, recorded-price intelligence, or price-drop alerts as active functionality; legacy historical records remain preserved but inactive.
ChangedHelp and guided-tour content was refreshed after the supply architecture upgrade, including barcode identity, Preferred Stores, retailer handoffs, Supply IQ feedback, and the removal of active price tracking.
ChangedSupply entry now treats barcode scanning or manual barcode entry as the primary automated product-identification path; likely matches require confirmation, rejected matches are recorded without overwriting verified identities, and household Supply IQ data remains separate from shared product identity.
ChangedSupply IQ low-supply predictions now use two purpose-built actions: Add to Restock confirms a useful prediction and moves the item to the Restock List, while Still plenty corrects an early estimate; chore predictions retain Log done, Too early, and Remind later.
ChangedSupply IQ now keeps physical package count separate from internal weight or volume consumption, preventing grams or milliliters from being mistaken for the number of units in a package or overwriting the hidden remaining estimate.
ChangedInsights → What Needs Attention now labels chore recency as Last Completed instead of Last Cleaned so cleaning and general household-upkeep chores are described accurately.
ChangedHelp and guided tours now explain the current supply workflow, including package count versus weight/volume, no-barcode private photos, Supply IQ correction behavior, Add to Restock, and Preferred Stores ordering.
ChangedStill plenty now acts as an internal Supply IQ calibration signal rather than asking users to maintain exact inventory counts, so repeated corrections can improve future depletion timing while preserving accumulated usage evidence.
FixedDesktop controls on the public three-slide product walkthrough are clickable again, restoring previous/next arrows and LEARNS / PREDICTS / IDENTIFIES selectors while preserving the existing mobile interaction.
v2.71.0Sep 23, 2026
FixedRepaired the Help accuracy assertion after supply guidance was renamed, removed stale stored-price badges and unused imports, corrected the public carousel image prop, synchronized both changelogs, and rebased the total bundle budget for the expanded product while retaining JavaScript and CSS ceilings
v2.70.0Sep 22, 2026
AddedAdded a three-slide product walkthrough with real app screenshots to the homepage hero and the Home IQ feature page.
v2.69.0Sep 22, 2026
AddedPrediction cards and the "How we figured this" explainer are now translated into all eight supported languages, and the reasoning is written in the reader's language from each prediction's stored evidence instead of fixed English text.
ChangedPrediction cards on Today and in Home IQ show the reasoning behind a "How we figured this" toggle, so every pending prediction has a distinct explainer rather than a subtitle.
ChangedPrediction cards use a short supply name ("Disinfecting wipes") instead of the full retail product title; the full name is unchanged on the supply detail view.
ChangedPrediction explanations now state the evidence instead of restating the prediction — "Based on 3 completions, you average this every 4 days" for chores, and "You've used 2 in about 3 weeks, averaging 0.7 per week" for supplies.
v2.68.0Sep 22, 2026
FixedOverdue predictions no longer sit on Today with a date in the past: a prediction whose date has passed is rolled forward to today, and one left unanswered for more than a week ages out and stops being shown.
FixedStopped a prediction regeneration loop where the same chore prediction was recreated on every refresh (4 copies in 30 minutes, each prior one flipped to "ignored"). Re-evaluation now updates the existing prediction's date and confidence in place, and will not resurrect a prediction already answered or aged out for the same date.
v2.67.0Sep 22, 2026
AddedChore duration learning now rebuilds from timing feedback already on record, and chore details show the Home IQ learned estimate next to your manual override.
AddedPredictions on Today now show a short "how we figured this" explanation alongside their confidence.
FixedPredictions never appeared: creation was gated on Task/Supply IQ reaching 30, but IQ is capped at observations ÷ 15 × 100, so a chore needed ~7 perfectly spaced completions (and a supply ~5 uses) before a prediction could exist. Predictions now activate on reachable evidence — 3 completions for a chore, 2 recorded uses for a supply — and confidence keeps following learned IQ.
v2.66.0Sep 20, 2026
ChangedRemoved 28 empty placeholder and cleanup-probe entity schemas so Base44 no longer recreates their unused tables in the Data workspace
v2.65.0Sep 20, 2026
AddedAdded a public Accessibility Statement linked from public navigation and authenticated Settings, with the accessibility route included in HouseKeepr's public discovery infrastructure
AddedAdded a public Guides hub and expanded editorial guide library with dedicated cleaning-schedule, household-chores, supply-tracking, quick-cleaning, family-app, and child-chore guidance pages
AddedAdded an authenticated Professional Cleaning estimator that builds estimates from selected rooms, home size, bedroom/bathroom context, and cleaning scope while keeping partner-provider integration staged separately from the public site
AddedAdded IndexNow publish automation that fingerprints HouseKeepr's public sitemap URLs and submits only new or materially changed public pages after publishing, with regression coverage and a public verification key
AddedAdded a public Features hub with 13 dedicated HouseKeepr feature pages covering chore tracking, Home IQ, friends accountability, room organization, Supply IQ, barcode scanning, Quick Cleaning, chore-time learning, flexible schedules, smart supply recommendations, cleaning insights, shared households, and child chore profiles
ChangedRoom-name aliases now resolve consistently to the new icon families, including Powder Room, Water Closet / WC, Guest / Full Bathroom, Master / Primary Bathroom, Ensuite, Stairway, Stairs, Stairwell, and Staircase
ChangedInsights metric cards now use purpose-built compact and detail heights instead of inheriting the same tall chart-card footprint, reducing empty space while preserving all existing cards
ChangedCurrent Streak now adds record-distance status, latest activity, and active days this month alongside the current and best streaks
ChangedBathroom room artwork is now semantically distinct: standard Bathroom uses the approved tub icon, Half Bathroom / Powder Room uses the approved pedestal-sink icon, Master / Primary Bathroom uses the approved double-vanity icon, and Stairway uses its approved dedicated stair icon without changing the previously accepted artwork for any other room family
ChangedChore completion summaries now include optional per-chore duration correction using Finished early, About right, or Needed more time before the existing Task IQ, Room IQ, and Home IQ learning details; bulk completions keep corrections isolated to each chore and add an All felt about right shortcut without applying broad early/late guesses to the whole block
ChangedRoom cards now support temporary multi-select chore completion: tap Select chores in the Tasks header, select individual chores or Select all, review Complete X, then confirm once to record the selected work and update Home IQ; chores already completed today and paused chores are excluded from selection
ChangedThis Week now adds week-over-week change, rooms touched, most productive day, and active days; Total Chores adds average completions per week; Most Cleaned now includes its room and completion count while Chores Tracked remains intentionally compact
ChangedRoom Consistency now keeps every room plotted while condensing its color legend to two responsive rows; when more room labels exist than actually fit, a `+X` pill expands the card to reveal the complete legend and a localized Show less control collapses it again
ChangedPreviously approved icons for Kitchen, Dining Room, Living Room, every bedroom variant, closets, General, and all other unchanged room families were preserved while being moved into individual transparent files, so the bathroom and stairway update does not replace accepted artwork elsewhere
ChangedBarcode product identity is now separated from Amazon discovery: HouseKeepr validates UPC/EAN/GTIN check digits, uses structured UPC data plus a protected confirmed-product cache, asks for confirmation before saving likely matches, and no longer treats the first Amazon search result as proof that an ASIN belongs to a scanned barcode
ChangedRoom Consistency legend colors now use each room's retained chart color assignment instead of a separate chart-only palette, keeping room colors consistent with the stored HouseKeepr room data
ChangedRoom icons now use a centralized standalone-asset registry: every approved room family is an individual file under `/room-icons/`, the legacy production sprite has been retired, and future icons can be added without rebuilding or repositioning a sprite
ChangedQuick Cleaning now asks which chores were actually completed before any duration feedback is recorded, then uses the same shared completion-summary timing correction as Today, Chore Details, room bulk completion, Insights bulk completion, and accepted Home IQ chore predictions
ChangedConfirmed barcode identities are reusable across future scans, while conflicting confirmations are held for review instead of silently overwriting a verified product; the demonstrated UPC 037000695172 is seeded to the verified Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Extra Durable 7-pad identity
ChangedExisting Half Bathroom, Master / Primary Bathroom, and Stairway rooms now resolve to their distinct semantic icon families from the room name, so current homes receive the approved artwork without needing to rename or recreate rooms
FixedChores filter pills now wrap within the filter card instead of forcing horizontal scrolling on mobile; long translated or enlarged labels can wrap inside their pills while preserving readable touch targets
FixedKept the hardened barcode-product identity boundary separate from photo acquisition: valid UPC/EAN/GTIN identity checks and the protected confirmed-product cache remain in place without changing the proven camera/photo workflow
FixedReplaced corrupted standalone Bathroom, Half Bathroom, Master / Primary Bathroom, and Stairway artwork with the approved production assets and checksum-locked all four so future binary corruption fails regression validation
FixedRoom-icon regression coverage now requires PNG assets, validates PNG signatures, checksum-locks the approved bathroom and stairway files, and verifies that bedroom variants continue using the previously accepted bedroom artwork
FixedChore completion is now limited to one recorded completion per chore per calendar day across every completion surface, including Today, Quick Cleaning, room bulk completion, Insights Last Cleaned, Log a Chore, Chore Details, child profiles, and prediction acceptance; the protected completion manager blocks stale or duplicate writes before they can add cleaning history or Supply IQ evidence
FixedRestored Add Existing, Add New, and Recommend as the three room-editor supply actions; room-level additions now create the current chore-based ChoreSupply assignments, require choosing the chores that use a newly added supply, and do not revive obsolete RoomSupply writes
FixedAudited and synchronized Help and page tours with the current app: all eight languages now share the complete Help structure, German restores its missing Chores guide entry and previously untranslated tour copy, Vietnamese places Chores under Core Pages, supply guidance consistently reflects chore-based assignments with room rollups, completion guidance documents Select chores plus the one-completion-per-chore-per-day rule, and friend guidance now correctly places local-name editing on the Friends list while the dashboard itself handles Remove and Block
FixedRestored the last known working HouseKeepr Take Photo path from before the barcode-identity changes: the button again opens the device camera through the original hidden `capture="environment"` file input and the selected photo uses the original local BarcodeDetector/ZXing decoding flow
FixedRoom cards no longer present the bulk-completion entry point as a green “Complete” status; the neutral Select chores action now opens selection mode, while green completion styling is reserved for the final Complete X action and genuine completed states
FixedRoom Consistency no longer clips the second compact-legend row or its `+X` expand control; the card now keeps its normal minimum height but sizes naturally to the measured two-row legend before growing further when expanded
FixedConverted all room-icon assets to standalone PNG files so Base44 serves them with the correct `image/png` MIME type instead of `application/octet-stream`, removing a browser-specific rendering variable while preserving the approved artwork
FixedRestored the scanner to its original in-dialog focus context instead of rendering it through a document-level portal; Add New Supply now replaces its form content with an embedded scanner while scanning, and that scanner uses a moderate 350px minimum height so Take Photo, manual UPC entry, and the original helper/privacy copy fit together without forcing a full-screen experience
v2.64.0Sep 6, 2026
AddedEach generated public-route SEO record now carries the social image and Open Graph content type alongside its title, description, and canonical URL
AddedAdded regression coverage confirming the generated public SEO manifest contains all 29 public routes and preserves the guide-specific title and canonical URL for How Often Should You Clean Your Home?
AddedAdded a generated public SEO manifest containing route-specific title, description, canonical URL, Open Graph type, and social-image metadata for all 29 public HouseKeepr routes, ready for edge/server delivery before React runs
ChangedPublic SEO build output now exposes one synchronized metadata source for future crawler-visible delivery rather than requiring duplicate per-page metadata maintenance
ChangedHouseKeepr's centralized public SEO source now feeds both the existing client metadata path and a build artifact intended for crawler-visible edge delivery, avoiding a second hand-maintained metadata catalog
ChangedHouseKeepr's centralized public SEO source now feeds both the existing client metadata path and a build artifact intended for crawler-visible edge delivery, avoiding a second hand-maintained metadata catalog
ChangedThe public SEO manifest is deterministic and route-sorted, avoiding build timestamps so identical metadata produces identical deploy output
ChangedProduction builds now regenerate HouseKeepr's public SEO manifest automatically so future public-page metadata changes stay synchronized with the server/edge metadata source
ChangedPublic SEO metadata now builds into a deterministic 29-route manifest from HouseKeepr's existing centralized titles and descriptions, preparing route-specific title, description, canonical, Open Graph type, and social-image data for server/edge delivery before React runs
v2.63.0Sep 5, 2026
AddedAdded native mobile push notifications for friend and household alerts (friend requests, acceptances, household invitations, joins, permission changes, and removals) via the SendPushNotification integration, sent alongside the existing in-app notification when the recipient has push enabled; per-event-type push preferences are stored on the user profile and checked server-side, and web users or anyone who declines push keeps receiving in-app alerts unchanged
AddedAdded continuous live barcode scanning via html5-qrcode (EAN-13/EAN-8/UPC-A/UPC-E/Code 128) as a cross-browser fallback alongside the existing native BarcodeDetector fast path; scanning is user-initiated from the Add New Supply barcode icon, stops after the first valid read, and falls back to photo analysis and manual entry when the camera is unavailable; a compact manual barcode entry field is also available directly on the Add New Supply form
v2.62.0Sep 2, 2026
ChangedSpecific bathroom and stairway aliases are evaluated before broader room-name matches so names such as Half Bathroom and Master Bathroom cannot be swallowed by the generic Bathroom mapping
ChangedPreviously approved icons for Kitchen, Dining Room, Living Room, bedrooms, closets, General, and all other unchanged room families remain untouched by this update
ChangedRoom-name aliases now resolve consistently to the new icon families, including Powder Room, Primary Bathroom, Stairway, Stairs, Stairwell, and Staircase
ChangedThe shared room-icon renderer now supports approved standalone artwork for distinct room variants while continuing to use the existing production sprite for every unchanged room family
ChangedExisting Half Bathroom, Master Bathroom, and Stairway room records were migrated to their new distinct icon tokens so current homes receive the approved artwork without needing to rename or recreate rooms
ChangedBathroom room artwork is now semantically distinct: standard Bathroom uses the approved tub icon, Half Bathroom / Powder Room uses the approved pedestal-sink icon, Master / Primary Bathroom uses the approved double-vanity icon, and Stairway uses its approved dedicated stair icon without changing the previously accepted artwork for other room families
ChangedLast Cleaned now sorts completed chores in descending completion-date order so the newest work appears first, while chores with no completion history remain below dated entries
v2.61.0Sep 2, 2026
FixedInsights now reads the complete authorized household cleaning history instead of only browser-readable CleaningLog records, restoring accurate Last Cleaned, totals, weekly activity, trends, streaks, consistency, room activity, and Recent Activity when chores are completed by or credited to other household members
FixedInsights refreshes Home IQ and household assignment intelligence when the page is revisited, and resetting supply-restock history is now scoped to the active household
FixedInsights weekly totals now include chores completed on Monday at the exact start-of-week boundary, and the 30-day room-consistency window now includes the complete first and current calendar days
FixedThe timezone repair preserves existing cleaning history and completion attribution while correcting only the affected calendar date and matching supply-use date
FixedCorrected the currently affected late-evening completion records and associated supply events to their intended August 31 calendar date
FixedHousehold completion logs and their inferred supply-usage events now use the same timezone-derived calendar date so cleaning history and Supply IQ evidence cannot land on different days
FixedTimezone-aware household completion includes a numeric browser-offset fallback when an IANA timezone is unavailable, preventing UTC-only date fallback on supported clients
FixedAdded regression coverage ensuring household chore completion sends timezone context and the server derives the correct local calendar date
FixedCorrected the matching supply-usage evidence alongside misdated cleaning logs so Supply IQ history stays aligned with the chore’s actual completion date
FixedCorrected previously misdated household completion and supply-usage records affected by UTC rollover so their historical calendar dates remain accurate
FixedHousehold chore completion now sends the browser’s IANA timezone and offset to the server, which derives the completion calendar date in the user’s timezone instead of allowing UTC rollover to move late-evening work into the next day
v2.60.0Sep 2, 2026
FixedChores now refreshes household-wide completion activity when opened or revisited, so chores completed on behalf of another member no longer remain labeled “No completion yet”; same-day household completions are called out as completed today and identify the credited member when available
v2.59.0Sep 2, 2026
AddedIndividual Chore Details pages can now complete the chore directly; in multi-member households the household administrator can choose which accepted member completed it, and that attribution carries into cleaning history, workload fairness, Monthly Home Review contributions, Home IQ, and assigned-supply usage learning
v2.58.0Sep 2, 2026
ChangedChore supplies now use a used-together model instead of primary/optional importance: Chore Details shows Supply IQ status and usage evidence for every assigned supply, and the supply section is labeled “Supplies for this chore” with clearer room roll-up guidance
ChangedSupply usage learning now follows chore completions consistently across Today’s Plan, Quick Cleaning, Log a Chore, Insights bulk completion, child-profile completion, and accepted Home IQ chore predictions; inferred usage now contributes to Supply IQ learning
v2.57.0Sep 1, 2026
FixedProduct Finder now treats a supply explicitly assigned to a chore as the user’s preferred real-world supply before offering HouseKeepr’s generic product suggestion, including custom chores that do not have a built-in recommendation rule
v2.56.0Sep 1, 2026
AddedAdded an intelligent supply-assignment migration that preserves existing room-level supply links, maps high-confidence matches to the chores that actually use them, and keeps ambiguous legacy links visible as Needs assignment instead of guessing or deleting data
ChangedSupplies are now assigned to chores as the source of truth; room cards and room details automatically show the deduplicated union of their chores’ supplies, while Supply IQ and product matching use the specific chore relationship instead of a broad same-room assumption
v2.55.0Sep 1, 2026
FixedThe temporary inline SVG room-icon approximations have been replaced by the approved transparent soft-3D production artwork, bundled directly with HouseKeepr so room cards and supporting views now display the intended dimensional icon family
v2.54.0Sep 1, 2026
FixedRoom icons now render directly on transparent surfaces without the dark rounded tile behind them, and the stray decorative highlight stroke above each icon has been removed so the approved dimensional artwork displays cleanly
v2.53.0Sep 1, 2026
ChangedRoom icon matching now recognizes a much broader set of real-world room names and aliases, recalculates the icon when a room is renamed, and uses a dedicated soft-dimensional generic-room fallback for unfamiliar user-created spaces instead of reverting to an emoji
ChangedSoft-dimensional room icons now use stronger highlight and shadow depth, a larger feature-scale presentation on room cards, and larger supporting markers in Chores, Home IQ, and Today so the approved room artwork remains recognizable instead of collapsing into tiny emoji-like symbols
v2.52.0Sep 1, 2026

v2.23.0Aug 18, 2026
FixedProtected routes now recover automatically from stale lazy-loaded JavaScript chunks after a publish instead of collapsing to a blank screen; recovery starts at the browser event layer as well as React, and the Household page is bundled with the app shell so mobile Household navigation no longer depends on a separate route chunk.
v2.22.0Aug 16, 2026

v2.18.0Aug 16, 2026
AddedReplayable guided page tours now explain the major HouseKeepr pages with animated spotlight walkthroughs, conditional steps, keyboard controls, and per-page help buttons; Help remains intentionally excluded.

AddedShared responsive navigation now keeps Today, Rooms, Supplies, Insights, and More on mobile, with Household inserted as a conditional sixth destination between Supplies and Insights
ChangedInsights is now organized into Home intelligence, attention, activity, supplies, and history sections; populated cards use uniform contained heights, internal scrolling, and an overflow-aware bottom scroll cue, while data-empty cards collapse to concise learning-status rows
ChangedHouseKeepr branding, route names, navigation groups, browser metadata, favicon, and installable manifest now present one consistent product identity across public, desktop, and mobile surfaces

AddedQualitative Next capability guidance previews real upcoming intelligence features without percentage gates or XP-style unlock language

AddedToday's Plan landing page: an action-first front door that auto-curates daily chores using Home IQ predictions and neglect recency, led by a swappable daily-focus hero card, a prioritized room-grouped task list with inline mark-done, and inline prediction surfacing; motivation from Home IQ progress bars (Home IQ, Room IQ, Task IQ), no streak element
AddedFirst-time-user onboarding flow: a six-question Home IQ setup tour (welcome, challenges, priority spaces, help type, motivation, Home IQ focus) with a processing moment and a results screen that generates a starter plan of rooms and suggested chores from the selected spaces
AddedOnboarding is shown only to genuinely new users, is skippable, persists completion on the user profile, and can be re-run from Settings; existing users with data are silently migrated past it

ChangedDashboard converted to uniform fixed-height tiles (320px on desktop) with internal scrolling and a bottom fade gradient so every tile aligns gap-free in the grid

FixedChart tiles no longer grow infinitely on hover — switched from flex-based chart sizing to explicit pixel heights to eliminate Recharts resize feedback loops

FixedHome IQ tier badge moved from the right corner of the tile to sit right after the title so the drag handle no longer overlaps it

FixedSign-up page reached via shared invite link now shows Apple and Facebook login buttons alongside Google (previously only Google appeared)

ChangedIQ progress bars: inline IQ percentage badges replaced with full-width thin progress bars beneath room, supply, and chore names, hidden entirely when no data exists yet

v2.1.0Aug 10, 2026
AddedFriend invite links: when you add a friend by email and they aren't on HouseKeepr yet, you get a shareable invite link to send them — the friendship forms automatically once they sign up
