Read full description

Zen Routine is a simple reminder app for plans that repeat on specific days of the week. “Every Monday at 9:00” “Tuesdays and Thursdays at 18:00” “Saturday at 10:00” Set the day and time once, then receive recurring reminders each week. Zen Routine is also useful for college and university class schedules. If Monday has first and third period and Tuesday has second period, you can register those weekly schedules once instead of entering the same plans again every week. Use it not only for classes, but also for part-time work, workouts, trash day, cleaning, medication checks, recurring chores, and other weekly plans. [Main features] - Register routines (up to 10 on the free plan) - Recurring reminders by weekday and time - Manage plans by day of the week - Turn notifications ON or OFF for each routine - Review registered plans in a simple list - No complicated calendar setup [Premium features] - Unlimited routine registration - Choose a color for each routine - Configure swipe actions - Back up registered data - Remove in-app ads Premium is available as a monthly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Eligible users can start with a 3-day free trial of the monthly subscription. After the trial, the subscription renews automatically unless canceled. Please check the purchase screen for the current price. Zen Routine is not designed to pack in as many features as possible. Weekly plans should be simple to register and simple to check. What to do. Which day. What time. Set only what you need and manage your week with less effort. Make every week simpler.
