About SubTasks

We built the app we couldn't find.

SubTasks started as a rant and became a relationship tool used by thousands of couples worldwide.

SubTasks started with a simple frustration: the tools for running a D/s dynamic were bad. Habit trackers and to-do apps weren't built for things like "write me a reflection on last night" or "wear what I picked out today." Those aren't habits. They're moments, and nothing handled them well.

The apps that existed were built around habits and recurring routines. Fine for a gym streak, wrong for a dynamic.

And the gamification was an afterthought. There was some tracking, but nothing that made it feel good to use, nothing that hits the way a game does when you level up or unlock something.

So we built SubTasks.

The more we looked, the bigger the problem got. Across the alternative lifestyle space, BDSM, polyamory, swinging, all of it, the apps and websites are just bad. Ugly interfaces that look like they were built in the 90s. Sketchy security for some of the most sensitive data a person can share. UX that feels like nobody who made it ever had to use it.

Mainstream apps figured out years ago that good design builds trust, that security is a feature, that the experience matters as much as the functionality. None of that has made it to this space. There's a huge opportunity to take those lessons and build something people in these communities actually deserve.

That's what SubTasks is trying to be. Not just a better kink app, but proof that this community is worth building real software for.

People found it, tried it, and kept coming back, across a lot more dynamics than we first figured: queer, poly, long-distance, 24/7, casual. The app doesn't care who's in charge or what your dynamic looks like. It just helps you build something that works.

It started on Android, and in February 2026 it launched on iOS. It's now fully cross-platform.

The core app is free and genuinely usable, not a crippled demo. Pro removes the limits when you're ready. No ads, no tracking, no investors asking uncomfortable questions about your data.

SubTasks is built by Rob and Meghan, a small team that actually uses the app and reads everything you send.
