Frequently asked questions

What is the mental load?▾

The mental load is the invisible cognitive work of managing a household — planning, remembering, anticipating, and coordinating everything from appointments to groceries. It often falls disproportionately on one partner.

How does Skift help with the mental load?▾

Skift lets you send responsibilities to your partner in one tap. Instead of reminding or nagging, you create a clear handoff — they take full ownership of the thinking, not just the doing.

Is Skift a to-do list app?▾

No. To-do apps help you organise tasks. Skift helps you transfer cognitive ownership to your partner. The difference is that your partner doesn't just execute a task — they own it end-to-end.

Does Skift work for ADHD households?▾

Yes! Skift is designed to externalise the mental load from your working memory into a visual, shared system. It's especially helpful for people with ADHD who struggle with executive dysfunction.

Is Skift free?▾

Yes, Skift is free to use. Premium plans are available for families who want more — monthly ($3.99), yearly ($39.99), or lifetime ($89.99).

Can I use Skift if my partner is reluctant?▾

Absolutely. Often the reluctant partner simply doesn't see the invisible work. Skift makes it visible — which is usually the first step toward genuine change.
