Review the first four weeks before extending a routine
Kleara balances a new plan over its first 28 days, but tasks keep recurring after that. See what the four-week window shows and what lies beyond it.
Why the first 28 days matter
When you build a plan, Kleara looks at a window of 28 civil days starting on the first day. It uses that window to decide on which day each task starts, so that the daily counts stay even. The window ends 27 days after the start: a plan beginning on 26 October 2026 covers 26 October to 22 November.
The window is not the end of the plan. In the app, every task keeps its own next date and carries on after the 28 days; the web planner simply stops listing dates at the edge of its preview.
What the kitchen and bedroom example contains
The 11 tasks of a kitchen and a bedroom produce 46 occurrences in the first four weeks. Frequent jobs fill most of it: the sink ten times, the trash and the dishwasher nine times each, the weekly tasks four times.
Four jobs appear only once: the fridge on 30 October, the kettle on 31 October, the oven on 1 November and the windows on 5 November. Their next dates lie beyond the window: the fridge and the kettle on 30 November, the oven on 1 February 2027 and the windows on 5 May 2027.
Reviewing the first weeks
- Check that every long-cycle job appears at least once; a task with a single date in four weeks is not missing.
- Read the task list separately from the dated occurrences, so that ten sink rows do not look like ten different jobs.
- Look at the first week in particular: in the app it starts today, and tasks you set up in the evening may already be due.
- After a few weeks of use, compare the plan with what you actually did and change frequencies where the defaults do not fit.
After the first month
Once you start ticking tasks off, the dates follow your completions rather than the initial balance. A task finished two days late comes back two days later than planned.
On the free plan, the first task you finish each day gets its next date at once; further tasks finished the same day are saved as done and wait for a date. In the first weeks, when many tasks come due, it helps to know why some finished tasks show as waiting.
