Ritual vs Murova

Build daily rituals that create lasting habits. Ritual turns the routines you wish you had into something you actually run — a guided sequence of timed tasks that flows from one to the next, hands-free, with calm precision. Start with a 5-minute morning anchor. A 25-minute deep work block. A 10-minute wind-down before bed. Whatever shape your day takes, Ritual gives it structure without rigidity. Designed for consistency. Every routine you complete builds a streak. The Insights tab shows your 14-week heatmap, weekly cadence, top routines, and favourite time of day — so the habits you're building become visible, not just hopeful. Designed for you. Schedule routines by day of week. Pick from 20 timer colour pairings and 8 app-wide background gradients. Light mode, dark mode, your mode. Pre-loaded with six research-backed starter routines — Morning, Deep Work, Midday Reset, Evening Shutdown, Weekly Reset, Student Study (Pomodoro). Or design your own from scratch. Designed for honesty. 1-tap mood reflection after each completion. An optional "why does this matter?" intention you can set per routine and pause on before the timer starts. Eight quiet milestones (First Step, Week Warrior, 30-Day Chain, the 66-day Automatic mark) that celebrate real behavioural inflection points — not arbitrary numbers. What's not in Ritual. • No subscription. Core features are free, forever. • No ads. • No accounts, no cloud, no tracking. Your data lives on your device. • No streak-shame, no notifications begging you to come back. An optional one-time Supporter purchase unlocks the custom colour wheel — paint any timer you can imagine — and helps cover ongoing development. The full preset palette and every core feature stay free. Built by one person who wanted a habit app that respects the user. No unnecessary updates or bloatware to disrupt you. If that sounds like what you've been looking for, welcome. Routines that flow. Rituals that stick.

Murova is a calm, offline-first Pomodoro timer that helps you work in focused sessions and actually rest between them. Start a focus block, take a break, repeat and build a streak you can see.
