Which app is best for organizing a household as a couple?

If you want one place for the calendar, lists, bills, the house and records, with each person's things private until shared, Convivo is built for that. If you only need a shared calendar and grocery list, a family calendar app like Cozi may be enough.

What should Maple users switch to?

It depends what you used Maple for. For calendar, lists and family details plus the rest of the household, Convivo is free during its beta. See the Maple moving guide.

Where Convivo is different

One place for the whole household, not only the calendar or only the house.
Everything private to the person who added it until they share it — a task, a list, a section or a whole category.
No ads, no third-party trackers, no AI on your data, nothing sold.
No bank login needed for bills and shared costs.

Where it isn't the right fit (yet)

You need App Store or Google Play apps today: Convivo's are planned for early 2027 (it adds to your home screen from the browser meanwhile).
You want an AI assistant to read your family's emails and flyers: Convivo leaves AI out on purpose.
