VERY SIMPLE. VERY EFFECTIVE.
Three steps.
Zero soggy surprises.
Your laundry has enough steps. Remembering it shouldn’t be one of them.
Get on with life
Your timer keeps its place, even when your phone takes a nap. Optional alerts give you a nudge.
Move the laundry
When the cycle ends, your goblin has one very important next step for you.
PLENTY OF TIME
“We’re doing great.”
“We’re doing great.”
A LITTLE OVERDUE
“Hey. The laundry.”
“Hey. The laundry.”
THE MOOD IS THE MESSAGE
Nice goblin.
Mean goblin.
Dry clothes.
The longer your laundry waits, the less patient your tiny supervisor gets. The goblin’s mood follows the timer—not a random animation—so the next step stays clear.

What is Laundry Goblin?
Laundry Goblin is a playful, private laundry timer for iPhone. It tracks washer and dryer cycles, reminds you when each one finishes, and gets less patient the longer your laundry waits.
Do I need an account or an internet connection?
No. There are no accounts, ads, or analytics. The app works offline and stores your loads and preferences only on your device.
Does the timer keep running if I close the app?
Yes. Timers are calculated from saved timestamps, so they stay correct when you close the app or restart your phone. Optional local notifications are scheduled on your device; if you turn them off, open the app to check your cycles.
Can I track more than one load at a time?
Yes. You can run washer and dryer cycles at the same time, and give each load its own name and timer.
How much does Laundry Goblin cost, and when is it available?
Laundry Goblin is planned as a one-time $0.99 download on the App Store, with no subscriptions or in-app purchases. It is coming soon to iPhone and has not been released yet.
Which languages does Laundry Goblin support?
English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German. The app follows your device language and you can change it in Settings.
Private by design. Laundry Goblin doesn’t need an account or a remote server to keep your cycles on track.
