What is Routine?

Routine unifies tasks, calendars and notes in a single, keyboard-obsessed app. A universal capture console summons with a hotkey lets you add tasks, events or notes from anywhere, natural-language input understands dates and priorities, and the planner view time-blocks your day beside your meetings. It pulls tasks from Notion, Todoist, Asana, ClickUp and Gmail so nothing lives in two places.

Meeting notes attach to calendar events, agendas are easy to share, and widgets plus native apps - including Linux - keep Routine everywhere. The free plan covers the core trio with limited integrations; paid tiers raise the limits. Routine is still a young product, so some depth is missing, but its speed and consolidation make it a favourite of planner-app switchers.
