TaskKoala

Use case

Home projects without the overwhelm

Kitchen refresh, garden fence, loft clear-out — home projects generate long lists and competing priorities. TaskKoala helps you pick one job at a time instead of bouncing between half-started tasks.

Why home to-do lists stall

You add “fix the tap”, “paint the hallway”, and “call the electrician” to the same list. On Saturday morning you look at all of them and end up doing none — or starting three and finishing zero. Sound familiar?

Plant a tree for your home project. Each job becomes a leaf. Mark anything that needs a tradesperson booked or supplies bought as high priority. Focus mode shows you one leaf — do it, mark it Done, move on.

  1. 1

    Plant a tree

    Name one tree for this area of life. Free includes one tree; paid plans give you unlimited trees for separate projects.

  2. 2

    Add leaves & priorities

    Drop in everything on your mind. Mark time-sensitive work as high priority so it surfaces first.

  3. 3

    Enter focus mode

    Let the koala pick one leaf at a time — high priority first, then a fair random choice from what remains.

Tips for home projects in TaskKoala

  • Separate big projects — one tree per renovation or room if you have a paid plan with unlimited trees.
  • Front-load booking tasks — tradesperson availability often blocks everything else.
  • Weekend focus sessions — open focus mode for an hour and let the koala guide your DIY time.
  • Compost finished phases — done with the bathroom? Send that tree to the compost and start fresh for the next room.
