A handful of small habits that make HomeHub feel lighter.

None of this is required. But these are the patterns we see the households who love HomeHub settle into after a month or two.

Read the Sunday recap together

Fifteen minutes on a Sunday evening, partner next to you, scrolling through next week's recap. It's the single highest-value habit — and it usually surfaces one thing you would have forgotten.

Let HomeHub write the grocery list

If you've turned on meals, HomeHub already knows what you're cooking. Ask the assistant to "build the list for this week" and review it rather than writing one from scratch.

Use the quick-add

Tap ⌘K (or the little plus on mobile) and type in plain English: "pick up Leo at 3 on Thursday", "rent is $2,400", "Mom's birthday is next Tuesday". HomeHub figures out which area it belongs in.

Put one thing on the fridge

The print-friendly weekly view in Week → Print is designed for a single sheet of paper stuck to the fridge. Some households do this, some don't. It's there if it helps.

Turn off what you don't need

If finances stress you out, turn the whole Money area off. Same for Meals, Plans, People. HomeHub is useful with one area on.

Let the kids add stuff

Once kids hit 12 or so, letting them add their own stuff (practice, sleepovers, school trips) means you don't have to — and they feel a bit more in charge of their own week.
