Put Tidings on your phone, with notifications

Tidings runs as an app from your phone's home screen. There is nothing to download from an app store: you add the site itself, and it opens full screen with its own icon.

1. 1
   iPhone or iPad: open tasks.house in Safari, tap the Share button, then choose Add to Home Screen.

   Chrome, Edge and Firefox on iOS 16.4 or later offer the same option from their menu.
2. 2
   Android: open tasks.house in Chrome, tap the menu, then choose Install app or Add to Home screen.

   Chrome may also offer to install on its own the first time you visit.
3. 3
   Open Tidings from the new icon and sign in.

Notifications arrive on the same schedule as your email digest, weekly or monthly, set under Settings, Household. Each one says how many tasks are due and how many are overdue. It never names a task, so nothing about your home shows on a lock screen.

1. 1
   Open Tidings from your home screen, then go to Settings, Preferences.
2. 2
   Under Push notifications, tap Turn on notifications and allow the prompt.
3. 3
   Tap Send a test to see one arrive.
