iOS — Coming May

Roost is coming to iPhone.

iOS uses the same Roost household as the Mac app: Money, shopping, chores, calendar, pinboard, Hazel, and account settings all work against the same shared data. The app is officially in beta and launching on the App Store in May.

Beta access is available now via TestFlight. Use the invite link shared with your household to join.
