Routine Planner, Habit Tracker vs Buzzkill

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.

Buzzkill helps you break out of doomscrolling by sending frequent notifications when you spend too much time in selected apps. Choose which apps you want to monitor and set a custom buzz frequency per app, so notifications match your habits instead of fighting them. Choose your preferred language and the tone you like. You can go from sweet and friendly all the way up to full-on ANGRY CAPSLOCKS when you really want a strong notification. As your usage goes up, notifications gradually become more urgent instead of repeating the same message over and over. Buzzkill uses a large set of around 3,000 notifications in English, Dutch, German and French. Other languages are supported as well, but currently use smaller message sets. You can set a daily buzz-free time so notifications only start after you have used that amount of time. You can also add a daily limit that is easy to change, with optional notifications sent in advance so you can slow down before you reach your cap. Buzzkill keeps your data on your device. Usage history is automatically deleted after seven days. Nothing is sent to a server, and no long-term profiles are built from your behaviour. It’s a privacy-first way to reduce your screen time without blocking your apps, and it’s not another data-hungry tracker.
