With the [QUEST](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ar-apps) app, mundane tasks like having to do the laundry, shopping for groceries and cleaning up the house are turned into missions in a real life video game. Rather than begrudgingly checking these items off of your to-do list, QUEST lets you level up and earn new items for your character whenever you complete a task.

The unconventional [task management app](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/productivity-applications) also includes features for compiling shopping lists, memos, wish lists and even bill payment schedules, so that being a young adult can be a little more enjoyable. For kids who are on a [chore schedule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chore-tracking), this app is also a great way to assign household tasks and make sure that they get done.
