Home & life checklist
A house-move task checklist with dates and bookings, grouped into six phases from 8 weeks out through to after the move - plus a room-by-room packing board so you always know what's left to do and what's left to pack.
A six-segment stepper tracks your progress from 8+ weeks out through to after the move, each segment filling in as you complete its tasks, with a marker showing exactly which phase you're in today.
Set your move date once and every phase, the stepper and every overdue flag recompute instantly - change it any time your date shifts, and nothing needs re-entering.
Every task lives in one of six phases, each with its own checklist and an optional note per task - add a task to any phase in seconds with the mini add-task form.
A card per room with a packed/total box count, a progress ring, and a pictogram row of filled and outline box icons so you can see how much of the house is packed at a glance.
The Summary tab flags any task in a phase whose window has already passed and is still not done, sorted with the earliest overdue phase first - nothing quietly slips through.
The Summary tab's stat strip shows days until (or since) your move, tasks done, rooms fully packed and boxes packed, with an overall progress ring.
Copy a plain-text summary of your move date, task progress and overdue items to the clipboard, or export a standalone HTML file to keep or share.
Light/dark theme remembers your choice, and a rotating set of sample moves - at different stages, with different progress - lets you explore the app before entering your own move.
MoveAdvisor is a well-known free moving app that pairs a checklist with a mover-finder and quote service. It's built to connect you with removal companies - here's how a focused, one-off desktop checklist compares for someone who just wants their own move tracked well.
