Routine: Calendars & Tasks

It’s a typical calendar app but I don’t understand how to sync my google account to this app any instructions I find just tells me to download the app and go through that process which I’ve done but nothing has synced.

Would love to use it, but it crashes on boot. Started happening after I set up my Google calendar and opted to view a non-default Google calendar as my main calendar in Routine. Hopefully this gets fixed. Happy to update my review then.

I really like this app. It’s beautiful and has a lot of potential. I’ve downloaded it multiple times but I’ve also gotten rid of it multiple times. I just can’t use it as a ‘productivity’ app when it’s clearly got some optimization issues. Compared to other named productivity apps it’s just not up to par. I still plan to come back should the app be optimized better.

AMAZING I love it. It’s got a schedule view for the day, an adjustable calendar view that is pretty much PERFECT. The only downside is the calendar takes a second to load upon opening the app, otherwise amazing. My only real criticism is that, and that when typing in the notes area on the calendar events, it likes to scroll all the way to the bottom or to the top opposite of where you click, no option to minimize the section that shows pictures of your pages at the top, and that YOU CANT MAKE REOCCURRING EVENTS or change the color of them. I know it’s connected to google calendar, but still would be nice to not have to switch apps just to make a reoccurring event. Can’t wait to see this app progress and love it already. - side note of concern: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep it free, if you do add a paid version, just make it so you get extra stuff, and not that the free version is limiting. Ex: don’t restrict number of pages/tasks. Just make the paid version so you can change the colors and theme of the app and icon. Just keep it to being additional customization rather than unlocking restrictions.

App is almost perfect. A lot of premium features for free and plenty of tools to make to do lists and planning ahead for the week. The only thing really missing is tags for different tasks.

As a productivity app, this gets in the way of itself and productivity. It takes a whole 15 seconds to load, doesn’t work without an internet connection, and crashes regularly. These fixes have been promised for years now and are now listed behind a ridiculously priced paywall subscription for some still unknown date. It seems the developers are more concerned with adding new features, rather than making the current ones actually usable. This app has soo much potential to be your one, every solution app. Unfortunately, until these issues are fixed it won’t be.

As soon as I open app. Looks like they haven’t updated in a while so, idk.

I don’t write reviews so this shows how amazing I think this app is. I’ve been using Routine for over a year on my Mac as well as my iPhone. I balance multiple calendars as a student who also works full time and it’s been an incredible tool for keeping my schedule straight. So many things used to slip through the cracks because I would forget or they’d get lost in one of my many long to do lists, or I’d find myself being double booked with work because I had to look at 3 separate calendars all at once to find free openings. Now I’ve been able to get so much more done and work so far ahead because I can keep track of everything and seamlessly move and change things if needed. Thank you Routine for seriously helping my task management and calendar in a way that no other app I’ve found has done.

This is exactly the kind of calendar/to-do list app that I’ve been looking for. It’s just needs some finishing touches. It’s still functional, but there are some noticeable bugs. Please keep working on it because this app has amazing potential.

I don’t understand why this can’t be used locally on my phone with my iOS calendar. I don’t WANT to use Google calendar. I want a calendar app that is it’s own standalone thing and can update my iOS calendar.
