Automatic rotation

Set it once, forget about it. Turns advance on schedule without anyone clicking anything.

How it works

Pick a schedule (daily, weekly, fortnightly, or monthly) and a time. Turnsies advances the turn automatically. The activity card shows a countdown timer and an “AUTO” badge. Turn history tracks which rotations were automatic vs. manual.

Setting up automatic rotation

When creating or editing an activity, select Automatic under Rotation Mode. Choose your frequency, day (for weekly/fortnightly), and time. That’s it.

Frequency options

Daily: Rotates every day at the same time (e.g., dishes at 8 PM) Weekly: Rotates once per week on a specific day (e.g., trash every Monday at 7 AM) Fortnightly: Rotates every two weeks (e.g., deep cleaning every other Saturday) Monthly: Rotates once per month on the same day (e.g., bills on the 1st at 9 AM)

Works with everything

Automatic rotation works with rewards (participants earn automatically), due dates (advance on schedule), and skip rules (still apply before rotation).

Switching back to manual

Edit the activity and change Rotation Mode to Manual. History is preserved.
