ADHD game changer

As someone with ADHD and bad time blindness, this is a game changer. I thought I had come up with an incredible idea for a timed to do list, and was using shortcuts to time out my routines but the set up was taking ages. Did some research, and turns out this app existed all along and it was exactly what I was picturing! I do wish it had some customisation though, like different alarm tones or options to auto pause until I press next. Sometimes it’s quite quiet so I tend to have the timer on and facing me. It would also be cool to have a library of tasks that have pre assigned times, so building a new routine is easy. But on the whole it’s exactly what I need, no frills and no in app purchases or annoying ads! I tried a similar app and it was £40 annual subscription for the same thing.

Simple and effective

I love the simplicity of this app. It is similar to Routinery but without all the added fluff. And no subscription! Make a routine and go. That’s all I want.

ルーチンワーク中に動画音量が小さくなる

とある副業関連のコーチングをしてもらってる間にこのアプリの存在を教えていただきました。 継続する技術と合わせて使うと、すごいと言うことで、本当にいろいろ継続してできてます。ありがとうございます。 一点だけ気になる点があります。 ルーチン実施が動画視聴だと、動画の音量がものすごく小さくなってしまって、講義動画などeラーニング動画の視聴をしていると、話者の声が聞き取りづらいです。 終了のアラームのために、音を鳴らすためのリソースの予約がされてるのかもしれないですが、そういった環境に影響を与えてしまうのが改善されると助かります。

タイマーの画面から戻れないのは不便

サイズも小さいしシンプルで見やすくて良さそうだったのですが、ルーティン開始後、カウントされていく画面から前の画面に戻ったりするとタイマーがリセットされてしまう所が良くなかったです。試しに使ってみて分かりすぐにアプリを削除しました😞 ちょっとしたことですが、ストレスになる気がしました。

音量調整が欲しいです

朝や帰宅後のやらなきゃいけないことを、ボタンを押すだけで無心で動けるのがとても助かってます! ただ、バックグラウンドでYouTubeを流しながら使いたい時にこのアプリの音が優先されるみたいで、普段の音量でYouTubeを使っているとアナウンスの音が大きくなりすぎるのが少し使いにくいです。 なので、アナウンスの音量調整を出来るようにしてもらえたら嬉しいです。ぜひご検討お願いします。

The Best

I do not know why all daily planners, calendars, etc do not have this kind of app integrated into it. If I could I would drop a routine into my day, and poof, it would copy my routine right into my planner. Alas, none of them really do that. Why do I want that? Because this routine tracker is the easiest way to create a working routine. I use it for many, many routines, especially when they are detailed.

provide option to mute sound!

I love this app. i really do. but i HATE the voice prompts. my morning routine starts at 4am. the *last* thing i want is to hear a machine voice saying “get your teeth brushed in 3 minutes”. it is soo irritating and annoying. yes i realize i can just mute my phone but i listen to music and pleasant relaxing things while i do my morning routine. i do NOT need those sounds getting interrupted by stressful warning sounds from this app. i really want to give a 5 star rating but this one issue is so aggravating

Simple and effective!

I have never been able to stick to a routine. This app is so straight forward and simple which is impossible to find. And now I have my routines press play and the app tells me the time to complete the task, warns me when i have 1 min , 30 seconds left. It also moves on to the next task so I dont get distracted. This is an ADHD god send. Thank you so much for making this app! I have recommended it to other ADHD people as well!! I finally can complete a routine 🥹

過不足なく、すごく便利だったのですが

開始時間になっても通知が来なくなりました。問い合わせても、設定してください、以上のことは教えてもらえず。これ以上にシンプルで使いやすいルーチンアプリはなかったのですが、通知が来ないのは致命的です。改善されたらまた使おうと思います。

Amazingly easy to use!

App is simple and straightforward! I love this! Is developer supporting this app? Is it possible to add a timeline per day we know when we start/when we pause/when we finished, and what is actual used time compared to planned time? And later we can add calendar to integrate with the routine? This makes users to keep track of habits. I wanted to use this app for everyday use for almost every single tasks. However due to lack of features, I kinda combine it with some other fancy verbose apps… also, what about Apple Watch? I have a lot expectation on this app…

使いやすくて助かってます

とにかくだらだらしちゃうのをやめたくて、朝の支度をルーチンとして登録して使ってます。 ルーチンタイマーとしての機能がきちんと備わっていて、その面ではほんとに言うことなしだと思います。 アプリのカラーを変えられたり、ルーチン内の行動一覧をホーム画面に表示できるようになったら嬉しいなーと思ってます。

最初だけ良かった

使い始めはバックグラウンドでも音声で次の指示を出してくれてこれは使えると思ったけど、気づいたら何も言わないまま全てのルーティンが勝手に終わって2時間経過していた。ずっとアプリ画面を表示したままでないといけないのだろうか。タスク中iPhone使えないんじゃ意味ないよ。

Great for autism/ADHD!

helpful to assist in keeping me on schedule. Also helpful to remind me to do tasks that just come naturally to the average person (brushing teeth, drinking water, applying deodorant, etc) . Once you map out the routine theres no room to get distracted by other tasks. And even if you do, the next task will sound off. Forcing/reminding you to get moving to the next task.

Simple and easy to use! I love how it goes from one task to another with “Siri voice” prompts. You can make unlimited tasks and routines. Been searching for an app like this! Glad I found this.

時間管理が壊滅的なADHDにとって救世主とも呼べるアプリですが、惜しいところがあります。全てのルーチンの合計時間は出してくれますが、実際の終わる時間(何時何分に終了予定)なども自動で計算して表示して頂けると尚助かります。よろしくお願いします。 このアプリを開発して下さってありがとうございます。

So close, but not designed for time blocking.

I’ve been searching for a simple app to provide a speaking time coach with my time blocking approach to my productivity. This app allows me to link sets of timed activities under titles, such as ‘Monday’, without any fuss or complexity. It announces (speaks) the task and how long has been planned for it. It is totally focussed on one thing: time coaching someone through activities. Brilliant and exactly what I cannot find elsewhere. Except, it does two things that mean it’s a poor fit for time blocking. 1) tasks can only be 60mins max, so a 4hr time block will need four tasks adding. Unrealistic for a day I expect to be 10hrs long. 2) The coach says ‘Get xx done in y mins!’ It’s too aggressive for time blocking. While this is minor compared to 1, a time blocking coach would simply say ‘Admin for 1hr’, and ‘10 minutes to next task’. Aggressive ‘Get it done!!!’ every 60mins through a whole day is just not something I could stomach. Sigh. So near but so far. This app has clearly been designed for something else. If the coach had two modes, and tasks could be hours, it would be the best focussed, minimal distraction, productivity app out there.

This thing is awesome. I’ve got several routines throughout my day to support my habits. I trigger the routine with my schedule then this app takes it from there.

Very simple and effective

I love this app so much. It is very simple yet so effective. I really wanted to give it 5 stars but I really feel like something is missing from the timer and that is the ending time. I find it helpful to see the ending time of the routine so that if I accidentally go off track, I can predict whether I should skip on something or not. Other than that, the app is unbeatable.
