Done your will? Here is the rest.
Maybe you wrote it online with Willed or Safewill. Maybe you sat down with a solicitor. Either way, well done. Your will says who gets what and who is in charge. What it usually does not say is where everything is, who to ring first, or how you would like things done.

What a will covers, and what it leaves to your family
| Your will | This is usThe Estate Organiser | |
|---|---|---|
| Who gets what | Yes. This is the will's job. | No. The Estate Organiser is not a will and does not replace one. It sits next to yours. |
| Who is in charge | Yes. It names your executor. | It gives your executor a plan to work from: who to call, in what order, in the first 48 hours, the first month and the first year. |
| Where the accounts, super and policies are | Usually not listed. A will deals with what you leave, rather than where to find each account. | Written down in one place: banks, super, insurance, property, debts and the people who look after each one. |
| Funeral wishes | Sometimes. Some online wills include a place for them. Willed's Online Will lists Funeral Wishes and a Digital Vault among its inclusions. | Yes, in your own words: funeral preferences, organ donation, pets and personal items. |
| Passwords and digital accounts | Not usually. | A section for digital access, so your family knows which accounts exist and how they are meant to reach them. |
| Letters to the people you love | Not usually. | Room for legacy letters and the things you want said. |
| Where it lives | With your solicitor, or online with the service you used. Safewill's pricing, for example, includes always-online access. | On your shelf, or as a fillable file on your own computer. It is not an app, and what you write is not stored with us. |

If you used Willed or Safewill
Both services describe a will that takes about 20 minutes to write. The Estate Organiser is slower work: a chapter at a sitting, over a few weeks, at your kitchen table. It picks up where the will stops and covers the practical side your executor deals with day to day.
If your will service already holds some of this, such as funeral wishes or a digital vault, keep using it. Write down in the book where that information lives, so your executor can find it without guessing.
If you used a solicitor
Keep them as your first call. They hold the will and can advise on the things this book cannot. The Estate Organiser is somewhere to record what your executor will often be asked for later: the accounts, the policies, the super funds, the digital accounts and the people to contact. Handing that over in one place can make their job easier, and yours.
