Routines Reviews

I really like Routines! I love that it’s free to use and lets you customize the colors and stuff, and it goes along perfectly with my favorite self care app :).
My only complaints/suggestions are:
A) the 2-4 goals you can set & change seem cool, but then if you change it to focus on some... Show more thing else, your old data just flatlines. I would personally want to see all five stats running so I could change the focus based on that, but that’s just me and I’m probably being excessive :/.
B) maybe adding an option for weekends? It’s kinda hard to do the things I’d normally do before school & keep streaks when I’m not actually going to school every day.

I really like Routines! It helps me with my daily routine since I work from home (sometimes I can forget even the smallest things to do!!). I give it four stars because there are two things I really wish could be a thing: 1. Push notifications to remind me to log things. I am in the habit of openi... Show more ng Routines in the mornings now, but before, I had to set an alarm because push notifications aren’t available. And 2. Being able to go back and log prior days. I sometimes forget to log parts of my nighttime routine since I’m tired and getting ready for bed. I wake up the next day and realize that I didn’t log one or two things that I did but I can’t find a way to go back and check them off. With a type A personality, it drives me a bit crazy! Because I like to check things off. I think those two things would be a great update to Routines but other than that, it really is a great app!

Fairly new to using Routines but a little in love with it. I’m someone that’s always struggled with maintaining any kind of routine but over the last week Routines has been incredibly helpful. The design is nice and simple (love the colors and ability to switch between this app) and is a part of... Show more my day I look forward to when it’s time to turn in. Being able to check off simple tasks like just drinking water, stretching, etc. has been great for building a healthier routine.
Only critique would be for a way to make the awake period more customizable. I work nightshifts and don’t normally get around to my evening/night routine until 5-6am, so being able to lock the night routine and reflections for a specific period of time would be great! It’s a little thing but other than that love Routines !

I recently downloaded Routines and have been exploring it for a little bit now. I really like the general idea of Routines , and keeping a routine that makes me healthy and happy is always something I have struggled with. I think that while Routines is still new however that there are some things... Show more that could improve it. As of now Routines only allows this app for morning and night, I think that adding in something along the lines of goals for during the day or even a midday routine would be helpful as well. Eating a healthy lunch, going for a walk, drinking water are some ideas. I think if there was also a space for writing a reflection of your day at the night just being able to talk about what you did accomplish and what you didn’t would be a great idea as well! Overall love Routines and the idea, the design of Routines is beautiful. Cheers

I often feel depressed in the morning so I wanted something that would motivate me to get up and get moving. I liked the idea of trying a beta app because it’s a little rough around the edges, just like me. So far it has been very easy to use and not at all overwhelming or stressful like some of th... Show more e other popular apps I’ve tried. I like the clean design as well as the insights that are provided. I only wish there were a few more activities offered within Routines , such as suggestions for stretches, journaling prompts, a place to record dreams, breathing exercises, or even a simple game that you can play to relax. I have also had issues with getting Routines to sync to my time zone, but I imagine once the full version is available, they will have worked out these kinks and added more features :)

I am a daily user of Routines. I really like how it allows me to be better aware of how I am spending my time, and the reflections feature is great for keeping me aware of how these habits affect my mental health on a day to day basis. It is very visually appealing as well. My only complaint is th... Show more at you cannot edit progress you have made towards any other day but the present day. So if I forget to mark off a habit from the previous day (like “go to bed early”), then I can’t edit this the next morning to say that I completed it. In the future I would also like to see more insights into data collected longitudinally—especially a graph feature that shows me my scores over time.

Hi! So I have actually loved Routines a lot and it has gotten me to be a lot healthier, productive, and happier. It has a great easy format to do whatever you want to do/add in your morning or night routine. It even has streaks if you have been active lately. So just recently, I actually have been... Show more having a problem with the little streak fire thing. So I do not know whether or not I am on a streak, but it will show the little fire symbol on the side light up and then it will be gone saying there’s no streak like it will completely disappear. So if you guys could fix that, it would be a great help. 😁 Other then that small kink though, Routines is great! And I think it will definitely come in handy when you are trying to be more organized or more productive.

Not only is Routines free, but it actually works. Every morning and evening you can set a routine for yourself to follow. You click on the ones you complete and can reflect on how things are working out for you. I like it because I don’t feel pressure to tap everything, so I can use it to remind m... Show more yself about habits I want to start working on without letting guilt and procrastination make me rage quit. I never felt behind, and when I fell off for a couple weeks I was able to get right back on. It gives me personalized feedback about my progress, as well as some helpful tips that I actually use.

My favorite part of Routines is how simple it is. It doesn’t flood you with ads and none of the resources are blocked behind a paywall. I can easily set my schedule, and only look at that and my weekly report. It has other features, but it’s effortlessly weaved into the system so you don’t have to go searching for it and it’s not in your face.

Sorry for the random jumble, I 100% recommend and hope my rant made sense

I never ever write reviews but I had to give some positive feedback on this cute little app! I turned 18 this summer and I’ve been juggling 5 college classes and working full time! I miss going to the gym and I recently felt like I never had time for myself. I was very tired all day everyday and my... Show more body didn’t feel right. This little app makes a huge difference! I almost cried when the confetti exploded on the screen after I finished my first morning routine. Sometimes all you need is a healthy start and end to your day and Routines is the way to do it!

I have been using Care/of for about 1.5 years now & I was thrilled to see that they created an app to keep up with life as well as your mental/physical health!! I have been using Routines since it was sent to my email by Care/of a couple weeks ago & I am obsessed. It has made my days so mu... Show more ch more organized and has truly improved my mental health. I am all about making lists & trying to stay connected with my thoughts and feelings & this truly helps❤️ Thank you Care/of and the this app app for helping get me through these crazy times!

so i’ve been trying to find a self care app for a while and nothing seemed to do what i wanted unless i paid for a subscription. me being a stressed college student who doesn’t have the money to go out and buy a subscription couldn’t find Routines that was for me. Routines literally is the best a... Show more pp i’ve ever used. it asks unique questions for when i go to bed and wake up to reflect on how i’m doing. not doing so well and feeling stressed? don’t worry Routines will support you and give you an inspirational quote. feeling great and at your best? Routines will congratulate you for your hard work! the habit tracker is great because you can pick ones that are goals and challenge yourself which is really cool, and maintain the good habits you always do!

my only suggestion is that i wish we could customize some of our habit trackers and have 1-2 we can type in because there are some things that i do that aren’t listed on here. other than that, Routines is amazing!!!!!

Ever since this Corona Virus pandemic has started I have been using this to keep track of my time so I am focusing on school and not just being lazy. It has been so useful and I enjoy using Routines because it reminds you and also gives you a chance to reflect on yourself. My only problem with it... Show more is that when you check off a item it will vibrate your phone. The vibrating isn’t weird if you are checking it off but it is weird when you scroll or move the slightest it will vibrate. It might just be me not overall I love Routines so much!!! Thank you for changing my life!❤️

I’ve downloaded pretty much every habit tracker on Routines Store and not only is this one the best one because of how simple yet effective it is, but it’s also completely free? Amazing! Routines has a great UI design and makes it easy to see all ur habits. So many apps are annoyingly complicated... Show more for accomplishing this one simple thing. Love Routines!

The only thing that’s missing is an Apple watch view of my habits. Please consider adding this! Would love to be able to check off my habits as I go about my morning routine without having to be on my phone.

Either way - 10/10.

Routines definitely keeps me productive. It’s almost like I’m excited to use it since the aesthetic is nice and it’s just so helpful. Routines helps you keep mini goals during routine and give you small congratulations. I’ve been spending more of my nights getting homework done, meditating, and m... Show more ore just because of Routines. I also love the fact that Routines has morning and night “checkups” to measure your stress, energy, and mood. It’s nice to track these things and see where you are at the end of your week. I definitely suggest if you need a productivity booster or you just want a routine tracker.

Routines is really nice for routine planning and just general self reflecting. It’s super simple to use, some of the routine or wellness apps I have tried are so complex that they are confusing or they have a bunch of fees for the stuff you want to use. Not Routines. After using it for one week I... Show more had already formed good habits without having to look at my list. I woke up early, drank water, wrote a to do list etc. The reflection aspect was also extremely helpful. Just being able to get a visual concept of what my emotions were like throughout each week was so good for me and assisted in changing unhealthy patterns that caused these rollercoaster emotions. Definitely recommend!

I’ve tried many apps to learn and develop new habits and this app. Nothing worked for me, more or less had me feeling better off not trying. Then I randomly found this. I really love Routines! Every day, waking up and going to bed with Routine notifications that offer options to reflect and graph... Show more s to show the quality of your efforts and a few other things that work perfectly for me in ways that I never dreamed of. Perhaps my heart/mind could finally be taking charge, but to me Routines has consistently helped me understand, embrace and create a better lifestyle. I am truly grateful to the developers that have created such a purposeful, effective app and I pray it remains authentic as it has turned to be.

Let me just start off by saying I have never written a review for ANYTHING. Especially an app. But OH MY GOSH I LOVE Routines. I have a lifelong tendency to forget daily self care habits and I've been needing a cute app that has it all in one place, which Routines does! But the true selling point... Show more that got me to write this review, is that there are NO in app purchases or subscriptions!!!! There are millions of habit tracking apps on Routines Store but typically all of the cute / best ones cost close to $60 A YEAR. I don't know about you, but I don't have that kind of money to remember to wash my face or write a to do list everyday. But in Routines, you don't have to pay for special features or anything! Thank you so much care/of! (This makes me want to start purchasing your vitamins and other products!)
P.S... I also absolutely adore your daily reflections feature! ❤️❤️

I love Routines so so much!! It helps me keep on task and have my day organized and planned out for the next day. I’ve only used it for a full day but I still love it so helpful and useful. It helps me stay focused on my school work at home with Covid-19. I am in fourth grade and it helps a lot I ... Show more am 10 years old and it helps me figure out how I’m going to do today and I hope you stay energized, focused, and happy. It definitely helps me keep on task and sleeping a lot better. It’s better to help you sleep get ready for bed and then I can wake up early and get my schoolwork done before all my long Google Meets. Great job whoever created Routines I love it I definitely recommend!!! By the way, you do not have to have a subscription for this there aren’t really any in-app purchases, besides the premium but you definitely don’t need premium, because regular is awesome already.

I have a horrible time with setting good habits and sticking to them. My ADD is also a big factor; I have a hard time focusing for long periods of time, even with medication, and I lose track of time so easily I forget to do things I’d originally planned.

I got Routines figuring it couldn’... Show more t hurt to try. I’ve used it for almost a month straight now.

Every morning I wake up to a notification that encourages me to do a small task. And every morning, I look forward to the wonderful little compliments I get about each thing I do.

I look forward to the encouraging quotes that come with my reflections.
And the wellness levels that depict what each task helps me with, mentally and physically.

Every small task is a huge accomplishment, especially once I realized I was doing each task for a solid month now.

I though this would be a pay-to-personalize type app, with ridiculous purchases that I would have to pay to care for myself. Or that I would be bombarded with ads. Or that it would be too generic and work like a simple reminder app. But I don’t have to spend a cent. (The only payment here is the option to buy vitamins, which Routines personalizes with data and a small questionnaire.)

Routines is just so perfect and purely good for getting into good habits. I’m healthier than before, my habits have stuck with me and I feel I’ve made a lot of progress.

Thank you so, so much for this gem of an app!! 💛💛💛💛💛

I don’t think I’ve ever reviewed an app before because none have been as impactful as this one. I have ALWAYS wanted to be able to “track myself” and see how different things track how I feel and vice versa. Routines was what I wanted to get out of bullet journaling but so much better because I do... Show more n’t have to do calculations myself! I am so grateful for this and have already noticed myself feeling more centered. I just wish that I was able to see monthly trends, have easier access to the reports, and maybe be able to do tracking of my cycle on here as well (because we all know how much that affects EVERYTHING).

This is a really helpful app! Thanks for sharing it with the Care/of team. If I could offer feedback I would point out that the ‘check in’ button is in a place where one would think to be able to return to the ‘home’ page. I find myself clicking that when I don’t mean to because of its location. Al... Show more so, it would be beneficial to be able to add our own habits to track within the routine creator. But you already have very helpful choices to create new great habits! All around happy with Routines though.

I love Routines! Normally I would keep all my To-do’s for the day in my notes app or on a post-it note but having a place to check off my this app and see how it reflects on personal wellness takes it to another level. It’s been incredibly helpful with all the craziness going on and I definitely ... Show more see myself using it in the future.

Routines is great and totally free!! You can have as many things in your routine as desired and it’s just overall great. I’ve been using it for a couple days and I already feel great. It actually is kinda fun to fill it out everyday!!!!

I’m a huge care/of fan already but this is the best app I’ve found yet to track my this app. I love the reflection portion and that it monitors the way that my mood, energy, and focus changes depending on what I’ve completed. I use this everyday and recommend downloading!

I’ve always found it hard to find the discipline to build some healthy habits and this app. I didn’t think I had it in me, but Routines really helped set me straight. this app is essentially that motivating friend that I can actually always rely on - but also better! Thanks Care/of!

It’s really rewarding when you complete the tasks because you recognize that you’re taking care of yourself, in the littlest means possible. I like the Reflection feature but I wish there was a spot to record how our thoughts also. Excited to continue this!

I love Routines so much! It’s free (for the most part) and there aren’t hardly any ads. It’s colorful and happy, which is exactly what we need in times like this. It also has many daily goals most of which I do daily! This helps me track my habits and keep them organized. Thank you so much for Ro... Show more utines!

Routines is helping me finally get my life in order! It’s simple enough that it doesn’t stress me out and I actually enjoy filling it out, it’s like a list that encourages me to complete it:) one thing that would be nice is having it be accessible on my Apple Watch so I can mark them off on there ... Show more as well. Over all I would suggest Routines to anyone who may need a little help in organizing this app for themselves! Thank you care/of

This is easily my favorite app, and I’ve only had it for a day. It’s super easy to set up, and it’s very motivating to check off each of my goals and almost play a game and yet see my progress on the screen and also realize my progress in my daily life. It isn’t customizable yet, but apparently tha... Show more t is coming next week! 😍

I know I’m not the only one that finds checking things off of a list incredibly satisfying. I love that Care/of made an app specifically for morning/night routine. With all this COVID-19 craziness Routines helps me stay on track and celebrate my little wins during the day. I would suggest adding m... Show more ore options to add to your list or allowing you to type in your own! Overall Routines is amazing.

I have been looking for a habit tracker like this for so long! A month before Routines existed, I spent 2 hours downloading and deleting apps, trying to find the perfect one. Then I got an email from care/of telling me about Routines and it was a dream come true!! The ONLY thing I don’t like is t... Show more hat I can’t add my own habits that are personal to me, but I’m hoping this feature will be added later on.

I love Routines so much already! I know it’s new and feedback is appreciated to help make it the best it can be! With that being said- I would love a midday routine, not just morning and evening. Also if there was an area to write the to do list within Routines so I don’t have to use another one ... Show more for that part- those additions would be great! I love it as is- and know I will love it even more as the tweaks / additions are made! :)

I’ve only had Routines for a day, but I love it!! Easily my favorite. I will say, it would be super helpful if instead of it refreshing at midnight, it refreshed more like 2 or 3 am!! I’m up late studying sometimes, and it would be great if us night owls could mark off our nighttime routine and re... Show more flections last midnight!! Tonight I finished meditation around 12:10 and when I went to mark it and reflect, it had already switched to the next day and erased all my check marks!
LOVE Routines though!

Routines has really helped me stick to some kind of routine while I’m waiting to go back to work. I have multiple weeks where I don’t go to work at all and it gets really frustrating when I just get out of bed just to go to the couch. But Routines has helped me get out of bed and get my day start... Show more ed. I would recommend adding a spot in Routines where you can see how often you did something in a row. I know we get a weekly summary, but it would be cool to see it all the time with your all time numbers. I will continue using Routines! Love your work!!

With all the COVID-19 craziness, I’ve had to rebuild my daily morning and evening this app to make sure I’m staying sane, stress-free, and energized to take on the day. Routines has been hugely beneficial and has helped me get some normalcy during an otherwise crazy time. Thank you for this Care/... Show more of!!
