The household, on one screen everyone can see.
Chores that come back when they’re actually done, a meal plan that writes the shopping list, and a wall display that needs no login.
What it does
Everything Household gives you.
Chores repeat four days after you did them, not four days after the calendar said.
Plan the week’s meals and the shopping list is already written.
Paste a recipe page and land in an editable draft, ingredients already filled in.
Cooking a meal brings the pantry down — advisory, never authoritative.
A shopping list that holds its aisle order and syncs when the signal comes back.
Appliances with serial numbers, warranty reminders, receipts and manuals, by room.
Scheduled jobs for the house — gutters, smoke alarms, filters, the service.
Term dates for all eight states, with the school holidays worked out from them.
Areas are ownership, not assignment: owning the kitchen isn’t owning every job in it.
A full-screen family board for an old tablet in the kitchen. No login.
What it costs
Things you'd normally pay for. Here they're just included.
| Feature | Usually costs | In Nexus |
|---|---|---|
| A kitchen wall display | A dedicated screen, commonly $300–700 plus $9–79 a year | Free — use a tablet you already own |
| A shopping mode built for the aisle | Frequently a paid upgrade | Free |
| Chore systems with rewards for kids | Around $80 a year | Free |
| A recipe manager | A one-off purchase, roughly $5–30 | Free |
| Home inventory and warranties | Around $60–190 a year | Free |
Only what you want
Use it as just a chore and meal planner.
Nexus asks which parts you want when you sign up, and you can change your mind whenever you like. Turn everything else off and this is the whole app — the menu, the home screen, the quick-add button. Nothing you did not ask for is on screen.
Turn something back on a year later and it is waiting, with whatever you had already put in it. Hiding is not deleting. The budget, the pets and the rest stay out of your way until you want them.
If you want more
What Household can do that a single-purpose app can’t.
The shopping list knows what the week’s meals cost because the meal plan feeds the budget.
A recurring chore is a task in the same list as everything else you have to do — not stranded in an app you have to remember to open.
The wall display shows the calendar which already has the school terms, the events and the trips in it.
The logbook shares the vault so the receipt and the warranty live with the appliance, not in a folder called “scans”.
What you get, and what it costs
Nexus is free. Not free-for-now, and not free-until-you-need-the-good-bit — nothing you already have is ever moved behind a payment. You can export everything you put in, from every module, whenever you like.
It is free for the businesses in the directory too. Nobody pays for a listing, and nobody buys your data.
Read the promiseThe household is where most families start, because it’s the mess that’s loudest. What keeps them is that the screen on the kitchen wall already knows about the dentist, the holiday and the dog’s worming tablet.
