# Requirements: HouseHoldKeaper

**Defined:** 2026-03-15
**Core Value:** Users can see what needs doing today, mark it done, and trust the app to schedule the next occurrence — without thinking about it.

- [x] **TASK-06**: User can sort tasks within a room by due date (default sort order)

## Out of Scope

Explicitly excluded. Documented to prevent scope creep.

| Feature | Reason |
|---------|--------|
| User accounts & cloud sync | Local-only by design — zero backend, zero data leaves device |
| Leaderboards & points ranking | Anti-feature — gamification causes app burnout and embeds unequal labor dynamics |
| Subscription model / in-app purchases | Free forever by design — paywalls are the #2 complaint in chore app reviews |
| Family profile sharing across devices | Single-device app; cross-device requires cloud infrastructure |
| AI-powered task suggestions | Requires network/ML; overkill for personal app with curated templates |
| Per-task push notifications | Causes notification fatigue; daily summary is more effective for habit formation |
| Focus timer / Pomodoro | Not a productivity timer app; out of domain |
| Firebase or any Google cloud services | Contradicts local-first, privacy-first design |
