You've checked the boxes. The day still didn't happen. Routinery tracks your routines and then runs them with you. App of the Day 2026 (Apple) - Best ADHD App of 2025 (Forbes Health) - 5 million downloads A habit tracker, routine tracker and day planner in one. Stack small habits into a daily routine, break it into 1-5 minute steps, and each step runs on its own timer while a voice calls out what comes next. Morning routines, bedtime wind-downs, study blocks, workouts, medication - anything with a fixed order runs the same way. WHY IT WORKS - Starting gets easier. "Study" is too big to begin; "sit at the desk, 1 min" is not. Small steps lower the cost of the first move. - Nothing to decide mid-run. You set the order once, when you built the routine. Nothing left to choose means less to stall on. - Wins come back often. A finish is logged every step, not once a day. - No time math. You set each step's length once. Sink into one thing and the voice pulls you out, so an afternoon doesn't vanish. ASK CHATGPT OR CLAUDE TO BUILD IT - "Make me a 40-minute weekday morning routine" and it lands in the app. - Your assistant can handle routines alongside other tools you've connected there, like Google Calendar. - Connects to ChatGPT, Claude and others over our MCP server, included in the free plan. IT STARTS ON TIME, SCREEN OR NOT - Set the weekdays and time; the reminder arrives then. Weekdays only, three times a week, whatever your schedule. - The voice reads each step aloud, so the routine keeps running while you shower or cook. - A home screen widget shows today's list without opening the app. - Start on the phone, carry on from watch, tablet, or Mac. STAY DEEP IN ONE THING - A pomodoro that announces the next task, so the block keeps its own momentum. - Build the environment: white noise, Focus mode, landscape view, Shortcuts. - Stretch a timer, skip a step, reorder what's left - all without leaving the run. DON'T DO IT ALONE - Share a routine's task list with family or a friend and see how far each of you got. - Finish a routine and the result goes straight to the person you picked. SEE IT ADD UP - A plant grows for each day you keep a streak; weekly and monthly stats show what holds. FOR THE DAILY AND THE ONE-OFF - Keep undated tasks and weekly repeats in one daily routine planner. - A one-time task gets a timer too. - Can't face it now? Park it in Anytime for later. - Shift work that moves weekly still fits: Morning, Afternoon, Evening. - See the day as a list, a calendar, or a timeline. WHO USES ROUTINERY - Adults with ADHD who know the task and still can't start - People who lose hours once they sink into something - People who double-check in case they missed one - Anyone who waits to start until they can do it perfectly - Shift workers, people on daily medication, parents on the school run - Anyone who wrote a routine down and never once ran it ROUTINERY AT A GLANCE Is Routinery free? Yes. 2 routines free, no account, first one running in under a minute. Premium lifts the routine cap: monthly, 6-month or yearly. The free plan shows ads; Premium is ad-free. Do I need an account, and what about privacy? No account, no sign-up. Routine data is stored on our servers; usage analytics go through third-party tools. What you type is never used to train AI models. Email hello@routinery.app and we delete your data. Does Routinery work offline? Almost entirely. Routines, timers, voice, reminders and history run offline. Only device sync needs a connection. What does Routinery connect to? Siri Shortcuts, widgets, Apple Watch, and AI assistants over MCP.
