Common questions
Is The Decluttering Challenge free?
Yes. The tool is free, and you don’t need to sign up with an email.
Where is my challenge saved?
Only in this browser on this device. Nothing you enter is sent to us. If you clear your browser data or use a different device, your challenge won’t be there, so print it if you’d like a copy.
What if I don’t finish a day’s tasks?
Tap “Not done yet, finish tomorrow” at the bottom of that day. Your unchecked tasks move to the top of the next day’s list.
Can I skip weekends?
Yes. Under Start Date And Days Off, choose Saturdays, Sundays, or both. Skipped days don’t count toward your total.
What does “How full are these spaces?” change?
It changes how much time each task is planned for. If you choose “A lot,” each task gets more time, so you’ll see fewer tasks each day.
Can I add a room that isn’t on the list?
Yes. Type it under “Write your own” and tap Add. The tool gives you general tasks for that space.
How do I change my challenge after I’ve started?
Change your choices and tap Rebuild My Challenge. Rebuilding makes a new list and clears your checkmarks.
