Every task Hermo finds gets filed into an ownership area. You decide who holds each one. When an area changes hands, the nudges change with it.
Hermo reads the school and nursery emails and pulls out what needs doing. Send it a voice note or a photo on WhatsApp and that lands too.
You write what an area covers in your own words, or start from the Fair Play deck. Hermo reads that description when it files, so what it finds in your email lands in the right area by itself.
The board shows every area, who holds it, and what is outstanding in it. Keep one, share it, or set it to rotate weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
Nudges and watcher alerts for an area go to whoever is holding it that week, not to whoever set it up.
A board does not argue with you. It shows every area, what is outstanding in each, and the ones neither of you has picked up.
Areas neither of you has taken go in their own pile with a count against them, instead of quietly defaulting to whoever notices first. You assign them, or mark them as not applying to your household.
Some months, everything seems to land at once. Hermo helps you see what’s coming, what’s piling up, and who’s carrying it, so you can rebalance before it becomes too much.
Nothing to relay at the end of the day, nothing to explain. Either of you can open the board and see exactly what the other sees.
Hermo does not score either of you, work out a split, or tell you it is unfair. It puts the work somewhere you can both see it. What you do about it is yours.
Open an area and everything that comes with it is already written down, so nobody has to be briefed.
Areas are yours to name. Write what one covers and Hermo uses that description to decide what belongs there, so the filing matches how your household actually splits things.
The things only the holder knows: which deadline is the real one, where the forms go. Write them once and they stay with the area when it changes hands.
Add a recurring nudge to an area and it arrives on WhatsApp at the day and time you pick. It follows the area, so after a handover it reaches the new holder instead.
No. If your household already runs on the Fair Play deck you can start from it, but the areas are yours: rename them, merge two that overlap, or write your own. Hermo is not affiliated with Fair Play.
On the date shown, the holder changes. The to-dos, the handover notes and the nudges sitting in that area go with it.
You pick the rhythm, weekly, fortnightly or monthly, and who takes it first. Hermo works out the dates and shows the next one on the area. Daily areas can be split across the week instead.
Yes. The board, the holders and the rotations are on every plan, Starter included. Auto-categorising is on Helper, £4/month.
Put the areas somewhere you can both see them, decide who holds what, and hand one over when it is their turn.
