The Wash Guide

Nobody teaches you how to do laundry. The Wash Guide does, and along the way it works out what kind of washer you already are.

Start with the dose. Tell it what's in the drum: the garment, the shade, the fabric, the load size, whether it's grubby or delicate, whether your water runs hard. It tells you exactly how much detergent to use and at what temperature, for pods, powder, liquid or sheets. Most people overdose their washes; the right dose cleans better, rinses cleaner and quietly saves money every single load.

Your laundry room, on your phone. Keep your cupboard in the app and every logged wash counts down what's left, so you know a pack is running out before the morning it actually does. Price your packs and the app works out your true cost per wash and what right-dosing is saving you.

A catalogue that knows your shelves. A detergent archive launching for the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, the United States and Canada, and more to come, with formats, enzymes and dosing profiles. If you use something we don't stock, add your own in a few seconds.

Learn the craft. Step-by-step stain masterclasses that adapt to the fabric you're treating, a symptom checker for washes gone wrong, a visual glossary of care-label symbols, and plain-English guides to drying and wash chemistry.

Find out what kind of washer you are. The app reads how you actually wash, never a quiz, and mints your identity: The Eco-Alchemist who wins at thirty degrees, The Stain Slayer who runs towards the mud, The Wash Wizard who doses to the millilitre. Climb five tiers per identity, collect the trophies your habits earn, and once a month your Wash Coach writes you a letter: one honest observation, one thing to try.

Run the washing as a household. Share one cupboard, see who's carrying the load, and assign washes to each other with a tap.

Talk to your smart home. The Wash Guide publishes to Home Assistant, MQTT and webhooks, so a finished wash can flash a light or a dashboard can show whose turn it is. Publish to your own hub, locally or through the cloud, and never to anyone else's.

PRO, yours on any phone you sign in on. Your personal wash coach with deeper insights, access to the full savings ledger, recurring wash schedules that post themselves, your entire wash history, integrated smart-home control, and room for a bigger household. Everything else above is free.

Private by design. No ads, no tracking for advertising, and the calculator, catalogue and learning guides all work without an account. Your wash history syncs to the cloud only if you opt in, and you can delete your account and its data at any time, in the app or at thewashguide.app/delete-account.

Laundry is a craft. Learn it, share it, and find out who you are at the machine.
