Feature requests

You ask. Everyone votes. We build.

Every Friday we post the week's requests here and open them for votes. What rises to the top is what gets built next — so a vote is the most useful thing you can give us.

Every item below is a placeholder. Swap them for the real list when you post on Friday — the statuses, dates and counts are all editable text.

Votes are held on your own device until the tally endpoint is live, so the count you see is yours plus the posted total. Nothing about you is collected here.

Suggest a feature

What would make your household run better?

Tell us the problem rather than the solution where you can — it usually leads somewhere better than the feature you had in mind.

Add your idea in one line and we'll open the draft.

Nothing is sent from this page. It writes the draft and hands it to your own mail app, addressed to support@housemates.com — you see everything before it goes.

Request in

It goes on the board on Friday. If you left your email we'll tell you when it moves.

Changelog

Every change, newest first

What shipped, what got better, and what we fixed. Store release notes are short by necessity — this is the full version.

Every entry below is a placeholder. Replace the versions, dates and lines with the real release notes at launch — the shape stays the same.

Want something on this list?

What gets built next comes off the public board. Add your request there, or tell us what broke and it lands in the next fix line.

Recent incidents

Every outage gets written up here, including what caused it. Silence on this list means nothing went wrong.

Older incidents stay on the board for twelve months.

This page is a placeholder until Sleekplan Status is connected. The bars, uptime figures and the incident below are demo data — once the monitors are live, Sleekplan fills them in.
