ReadyLoop

ReadyLoop turns the routines you repeat β€” leaving home, packing for a trip, or closing your workday β€” into reusable checklists called runbooks. Keep the steps that stay the same, add what is different this time, and continue from where you stopped whenever life interrupts you. A RUNBOOK, NOT ANOTHER TO-DO LIST A to-do list is completed and forgotten. A runbook is designed to be used again. β€œAlways” steps stay in the runbook. β€œThis Time” steps apply only to the current run. Changes you make to a runbook never alter runs you have already completed. RESUME, NEVER RESTART A phone call. A knock at the door. An empty battery. When you return, ReadyLoop takes you back to the step where you stopped β€” without losing your place or asking you to start over. TWO WAYS TO RUN β€’ Quick Scan β€” See the entire list on one screen and check off steps as you go. β€’ Guided Run β€” Focus on one step at a time when you need fewer distractions. Available with ReadyLoop Pro. CALM BY DESIGN Nothing is scored, and nothing nags you. When you close a run, ReadyLoop gives you a neutral summary: 8 done Β· 1 not needed Β· 1 left open That is the end of it. WIDGETS, LOCK SCREEN, AND DYNAMIC ISLAND Keep your active run visible from your Home Screen or Lock Screen. With ReadyLoop Pro, Live Activities can show your next step on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island on supported iPhone models. YOUR ROUTINES STAY YOURS β€’ No ReadyLoop account or sign-up β€’ No developer-operated servers β€’ Works fully offline β€’ No ads β€’ No third-party analytics or tracking β€’ Export your data as a file whenever you choose β€’ Optional iCloud Sync across your devices with ReadyLoop Pro READYLOOP PRO β€” ONE-TIME PURCHASE, NO SUBSCRIPTION Unlock ReadyLoop Pro with a single in-app purchase: β€’ Unlimited runbooks β€” the free version includes up to 3 β€’ Guided Run β€’ Complete history and calendar archive β€” the free version shows the most recent 14 days β€’ iCloud Sync across your devices β€’ Dynamic Island and Lock Screen Live Activities ReadyLoop is an organizational aid. It records the completion status you enter in the app but does not independently verify that a step has been completed.
