Household Goals Tracking
Break a longer aim into phases and tasks, write updates as you go, and flag a goal when it has gone too long without an update.
Your first two tools have no monthly charge. Each tool after that is $2 a month.
Goals Tracking
Create goals by category, track progress with phases and tasks, and get reminders when updates are due.
Track longer household goals
Household Toolbox keeps this with your other household records under one account.
What you can track
Create goals by category
Start from categories such as home, finance, health, career, and personal, or add your own.
Break a goal into phases and tasks
Phases and tasks show progress as tasks are completed.
Log updates
Add an update note and attach photos or other evidence to that update.
Set an update reminder
Choose how many days can pass without an update. The goal is flagged in the app when that reminder is overdue.
Keep standing documents on the goal
Attach plans or other files to the goal itself, separate from update files.
Pin a goal date to the calendar
Add the goal to the household dashboard calendar.
Export goals
Export a PDF of the goals you choose.
How It Works
Step 1
Add the goal
Name it, put it in a category, and attach any standing documents.
Step 2
Add phases and tasks
Split the work so progress is visible as tasks are checked off.
Step 3
Post updates
Write an update when something changes, and set a reminder if you want a nudge after quiet stretches.
Goals that take more than a checklist
Goals Tracking is for work that unfolds over time. One-off tasks fit better in To Do List.
- Home projects with several steps
- Savings or other financial goals
- Health goals you want to update
- Career or personal aims
- Plans and documents that belong with the goal
- A reminder when a goal has gone quiet
Frequently asked questions
Can I break a goal into steps?
Yes. A goal can have phases and tasks. Progress is based on the tasks you mark complete.
Can I write updates as a goal moves along?
Yes. Update history stores notes, and each update can have its own photos or files.
What does the reminder do?
You can set how many days may pass without an update. If that time passes, the goal is flagged in the app. This is not an email or phone notification.
Can I attach a plan or policy to the goal?
Yes. Standing files stay on the goal. Files that belong to one update stay on that update.
Can I export my goals?
Yes. You can export a PDF of the goals you choose.
