Home Heads Up

The things your home needs,
before you forget them.

Home Heads Up is a free reminder assistant for Australian households. It knows your bin night, watches the weather and the UV, and keeps track of the home jobs that are easy to forget.

One quiet app instead of five loud ones

  • Bin nights

    Automatic schedules where your council publishes official data, and a simple manual setup that works anywhere in Australia.

  • Weather that means something

    Not another forecast app. “Rain after 4 pm — bring the washing in.” “Strong winds tonight — maybe put the bins out in the morning.”

  • UV protection

    One useful UV heads-up on high-UV days, using ARPANSA observations and forecasts. Never a message every hour.

  • Home maintenance

    Smoke alarms, air-con filters, termite inspections, gutters — Australian templates you switch on in seconds.

  • Car, pets and family

    Rego, licence, servicing, flea and tick treatments, vaccinations, birthdays and library books.

  • Built to be quiet

    One bin-night reminder. One UV heads-up per day. Quiet hours by default. Notifications you can trust are worth reading.

What a heads-up looks like

  • Bin night tonight — general waste + recycling.
  • Strong winds expected overnight. Putting the bins out tomorrow morning may be safer.
  • Rain likely this afternoon. Bring the washing in before 4 pm.
  • UV will be very high today. Sun protection is recommended from this morning.
  • 37°C tomorrow. Check pets have shade and plenty of water.
  • Car rego due 18 September.

How it works

  1. Tell it where home is. One address search. No account, no email address.
  2. See what’s available. Council bin data, weather heads-ups, UV and maintenance templates for your location.
  3. Switch on what you want. Everything is opt-in, and you control quiet hours.

Free means free

Home Heads Up is completely free. No advertising, no subscriptions, no premium tier. No analytics trackers in the app, and your address is never sold or shared — see the privacy page for the details, including the one-tap “Delete my data” action.

The app is on its way to the App Store and Google Play.
