How to get it
On iPhone or iPad
It’s live! Just download it from the App Store.
- On your iPhone, open Home Heads Up on the App Store.
- Tap Get to install. Available in the Australian App Store.
On Android (beta)
Android closed testing needs two quick one-off steps before you can download. Use the same Google account that’s signed in on your phone.
- Join the testers group. Open groups.google.com/g/aussie-testers and tap Join group (keep the default settings).
- Opt in to the test. Open the tester opt-in page and tap Become a tester. (App ID:
com.homeheadsup.app) - Give it a little time. Google usually activates access within a few minutes — occasionally up to a few hours. If the download link below says the app isn’t available yet, wait a bit and try again.
- Download from Google Play. Open Home Heads Up on Google Play and tap Install. (You can also use the “Download it on Google Play” button on the opt-in page.)
While we’re in closed testing, the app only shows up in Google Play once steps 1–2 are done — that’s what unlocks the download for your account.
What you get
- The full app, free — no ads, no account, no catches.
- Bin-night reminders tuned to your council and address.
- Weather, UV and storm heads-ups — only when they’re worth acting on.
- A direct line to the maker: your feedback shapes the launch.
What we’d love you to check
- Is your bin day and bin types correct for your address? (The big one.)
- Do reminders arrive at sensible times, with quiet hours respected?
- Does the Today screen match what’s actually happening outside?
How to send feedback
Email [email protected] any time — your suburb, council and “expected vs happened” help most. See the support page for quick answers, and our privacy page (short version: we never sell or share your data, and you can delete everything in one tap).
