Notion is good at first, but quickly gets out of hand. At least it was my case. You can consider Routine (routine.co). It does everything that you mentioned.

You made me laugh :) Thank you. Means a lot!

You're right, TickTick is another tool in the space. We are trying to provide more speed through our keyboard shortcut and console but the idea is the same indeed, to have tasks and notes.

Thanks for the kind words. Apple Calendar is something we are obviously considering. As for console which is hard to exit, we get that feedback all the time. Unfortunately, even though it looks trivial, it is actually not super simple to do

Hi. Indeed, it's far from perfect. We haven't had time to work on the offline/sync yet. You need to reload to get the new state. It's on the roadmap. Will be done soon.

The ability to add tasks and events in the Agenda view is in the roadmap indeed :) Along with drag/dropping a task onto this view. Thanks. Very clear.

Thanks for your message. You're not the first one to report a blank screen. Very strange. We didn't see that before. You can send us an email at contact@routine.co and we'll try to dig deeper. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks lenova. Duly noted, we'll improve that as it's not the first time we get the feedback here.

We were definitely inspired by Sunrise. We tried to extend the idea by integrating tasks and notes as well.
13.
by jquintard 5y ago
Definitely agree. Looks like what you are describing is Routine ( http://routine.co ) :)

by jquintard 5y ago
No inspiration from sorted3 but similarities with the circle on the logo indeed. The same could probably be said of many other productivity tools, like Sunrise :) Regarding iOS, you can find it here: https://apple.co/399lDrW

We are not trying to say that Routine has been built around privacy like Protomail could say. We do not make such claims on our website. But since we are asking users for their Google credentials, we thought it was more transparent to expla

We could have released on the macOS App Store but there was no benefit at first. We want to control how many people use it at first to make sure that we fix the bugs as they come. We've been working on this for only a few months. Let u

Hi Brajeshwar. Indeed, we need access to Google Tasks because all the tasks created in Routine are stored in a specific list in your Google Tasks account. We do not store the tasks on our server.

Thanks. Regarding the console, we know it's far from perfect. For now, you can hide the console by re-hitting CTRL+SPACE.

Thanks mful for your message. Recurrence is something we will improve. But you have pretty specific ones :) We will actually add a planning view with a full week. We are definitely aligned on that. Stay put. For the future dates, yes indeed

No not yet. Definitely something we want to do but to be honest it won't be before 6 months at least.

Hey. Thanks for that feedback. We're going to look into this and we'll get back to you. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Routine's iOS app is written in native Swift.

We prefer to warn users instead of just using their Google Account. As for why we use Google services. It's because most professionals do use Google Calendar. Some don't, we understand. We might serve them in the future but we hav

That's a very good point. Definitely Apple's direction. I think it will take quite some time to reunite both world. But maybe indeed, eventually, we'll have only the iOS app that will run on both iPhones and macs. Note though

Hey Jonas. Our team is too small for us to go after all the platforms right now unfortunately. But we do have a Web app: https://bit.ly/3rhkYLt

Hehe sorry about that. Yes I meant cannot.

The iOS app is native Swift. The desktop app is in Electron. But we've taken another approach for the Electron app not to become as slow as Slack or Notion. We know many people complain about that. To give just one example. The parser

Hey Oras. I've added the Apply part. Thanks a lot for spotting that :) apply@routine.co Regarding Todoist. It's obviously a great tool. But very generalist. Like Everynote for notes. We're taking more of a specialized directi

by jquintard 5y ago
Thanks. Notes taking app tend to be very generic. You can type text, create bullet points and checkboxes. But they it is for you to manually move stuff from one page or section to another to "represent" another day, time or topic.

by jquintard 5y ago
We do have a Web version but it is true that we do not advertize it very much because the desktop experience is what we want to push for. Feel free to give it a try: https://bit.ly/3rhkYLt
