Your saved routines deserve more than a screenshot folder. flowr is the self-care planner that helps you actually implement the routines you've been collecting. Build your morning skincare, evening wellness, weekly hair care, and more — then schedule them so they show up exactly when you need them. PLAN YOUR ROUTINES, YOUR WAY Create routines across 10 categories — Skincare, Body Care, Hair Care, Nail Care, Oral Care, Supplements, Medications, Exercise, Wellness, and Other. Set a default schedule for the whole routine, then customize each step individually — because not every step belongs on the same schedule. Some steps are daily. Some are weekly. Some are twice a week. flowr handles the nuance so every step shows up exactly when it should. YOUR ROUTINES, YOUR SEASONS Toggle any routine on or off without losing it. Switch between your summer and winter skincare routines, test something new without deleting the old, or pause a routine when life gets busy — everything stays exactly as you left it. Duplicate any routine to use it as a starting point for something similar, so you never have to build from scratch. SEE WHAT'S UP NEXT, EVERY DAY Your Today dashboard shows exactly what to do and when — morning, afternoon, and evening. Check off steps as you go — flowr remembers your routine so you don't have to. TRACK THE PRODUCTS THAT WORK FOR YOU Log every product in your shelf, rate it, and tag it to the steps in your routine. Never forget what you loved — or what didn't work. SHARE YOUR ROUTINES Found a routine that works? Share it. Tap Share on any routine to send a link to a friend — they can preview it and add it straight to their own flowr in one tap. NEVER FORGET YOUR ROUTINES Turn on notifications for any routine and flowr will remind you when it's time to show up for yourself — at exactly the time you choose. SYNC TO YOUR CYCLE Connect your routines to your cycle and let flowr surface the right routines for each phase — menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal. YOUR SELF-CARE CALENDAR Plan ahead and look back — your entire self-care schedule, at a glance. Browse any past or future date to see exactly what's scheduled, peek ahead to plan your week, or look back to see how your routines have been showing up for you. Everything in one place, always. NO STREAKS. NO GUILT. JUST YOUR ROUTINE. flowr is a planner, not a habit tracker. There's no gamification, no pressure, and no judgment — just a beautiful, organized space for your self-care rituals.
