One room, one timer, one small win.
TickTidy is a free iPhone app for short, low-pressure room resets. Pick a room, start a timer, and follow a tiny checklist — no sign-up, no cloud, all on your device.
Two minutes or twenty — there's no wrong way to reset.
Why TickTidy
TickTidy reframes cleaning as one small, kind win instead of an overwhelming chore plan.
No account, fully private
There is no sign-up and no cloud. Your rooms, checklists, and history stay on your device.
Low pressure by design
A reset counts as done after just 30 seconds. Your home does not need to be perfect — just better than it was 10 minutes ago.
One small win at a time
Pick a single room and a short timer instead of facing a whole-home chore plan. Small, repeatable, kind.
How it works
A reset takes three steps and a few minutes.
- 1
Pick a room
Start with a suggested room or shuffle to another. Kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and lounge come built in.
- 2
Start the timer
Begin an open-ended reset. Pause and resume any time — there is no countdown pressure.
- 3
Follow a tiny checklist
Work through a short, ordered checklist: clear the floor, declutter, dust, wipe, vacuum, mop.
