Laundry Reminder App That Actually Nags You
Stop leaving wet clothes in the washer overnight. Bumbi sends persistent laundry reminders that repeat until you move the load or fold it.
The problem
Everyone has left wet laundry in the washing machine overnight. You start the load, go do something else, and completely forget it exists until the next morning when you open the washer to a damp, slightly musty pile that needs to be rewashed. It is a frustrating waste of time, water, and detergent. The same thing happens with the dryer: clothes sit there getting wrinkled while you binge a show in the other room. And then there is the classic "laundry mountain" on the chair in your bedroom, clean clothes that never made it from dryer to closet. Each stage of laundry requires a separate reminder because each one involves a different action at a different time. A single "do laundry" reminder misses the multi-step nature of the task.
How Bumbi solves this
Bumbi handles laundry in steps. Start a load and set a reminder: "Move to dryer in 45 minutes." When it fires and you are watching something, it nags you until you get up and move the clothes. Then create another: "Fold in 60 minutes." Same thing. Your clothes do not sit in the washer growing mildew because the reminder will not let you forget they are in there. For your regular laundry day, set a weekly recurring reminder. It stays active until you start the first load. Over time, laundry stops being the chore that is permanently half-done.

Frequently asked questions
Can I set timed reminders for each laundry step?
Yes. Create a reminder for 45 minutes after starting the washer, then another for when the dryer finishes. Bumbi will persist on each step until you handle it.
How do I set up a weekly laundry day reminder?
Create a recurring weekly reminder for your preferred laundry day. Saturday morning, Sunday evening, whatever works for your schedule. It will fire persistently until you start the first load.
What about different laundry loads (whites, colors, sheets)?
Sure. "Wash sheets" every two weeks, "Laundry day" every week. Separate schedules, separate reminders, all running on their own.
