Tiimo: Planning & Focus 4+

I grew up in a dysfunctional household so I struggled a lot with routines once I moved out. I still do, but Tiimo here has been an incredible source of help. It allowed me to see the possibilities of routines and to create my own in a fun visually pleasing and easy way. I give it 4 stars and not 5 simply because when I create a routine, It automatically marks the activities of the routine as “completed” once their time has passed. Sometimes I don’t do my entire routine and I would want to unmark some of the activities so I can keep track of which ones I did and which ones I didn’t do, but as soon as I unmark them it just automatically marks them back. This doesn’t happen with separate activities where also their time has passed I can easily unmark them. This is really important because as someone who is trying to build a life routine and keep track of progress, tracking the parts of the routine I missed really helps with seeing where I can improve. I hope Tiimo fixes this issue (it almost feels like a bug or something) and honestly with this I would give it 6 starts not just 5!!

Dear Biza218, thank you for you kind review, hearing how our small app has been a helping hand in getting you started with your routines outside that dysfunctional environment means a lot to us here at the Tiimo office (thank you for sharing your story and we happy to hear that you are now getting your life together and we wish all the best) 💚✨ Our design team is already looking into ways of making it possible to uncheck the routines, we hope to have this in the nearby future, thanks for your feedback. We look forward to having that 5 stars when this has been implemented ;-) Have a lovely week! Warmly, Team Tiimo

Been looking for a routine design app for such a long time, have tried them all out and this one is the one I keep coming back to. Initially had the two week trial and loved it but was reluctant to pay for a subscription. Stopped using for a while but I found my life crumbled back into chaos without it which proved to me it’s worth every penny. It takes away all the decision making for you in your daily life, it’s like having a second brain nudging you to do all your tasks. Absolutely perfect if you have ADHD. I use a combination of this app, Todoist and google calendar and it’s working pretty well! The setup, however, is rather fiddly and I have found myself frustrated with how long it takes to set up the routines. I sent a message to the team asking if this was going to be improved and they got back to me within minutes with an estimated timeline for updates. Feels really nice to support a small team of developers and to know they’re listening to users. Makes you feel like you’re part of it, creating a real tool that can make a big difference to people’s lives. Never felt like that with an app before! Perhaps I’m over dramatising, but after such a long search for something that can genuinely help me, it feels pretty special to find something that works.

Hi!

Thank you so much for taking time to leave us a review. It means a lot to us hearing from you! We're very happy to hear the app supports you in everyday life. You are so right, the set up for routines is fiddly. We're very much looking forward to sharing the re-design of it.

Kind regards,

Signe from Tiimo

This would be an amazing app for me. Has all the things I need in one place, instead of having to keep track of 5 different apps for the full experience.

But I cannot afford subscriptions like this. Maybe a one time pay off when purchasing the app following a trial. But I’m a student, a disabled student at that, and I just can’t justify it.

I also find the page with all the ‘suggestions’ for what to add to your day very confusing. It’s overwhelming. I’m just trying to find the routines I have already set up so I can edit them but I’ve got all these suggestions for what I should book in next. I wish I could turn them off, they’re not helpful for someone with processing difficulties. It makes it feel very ‘full’ and ‘cluttered’ to me.

Finally, it would be cuter if you could download another kind of emoji for the task symbols. The ios lookalike ones aren’t as cute as my brain wants them to be when setting up a routine, and they’re missing things (like certain household items), so you just have to pick something random. Routinery did this (the emoji aspect) well.

Otherwise, although it’s a great app I just… can’t justify it. It’s not in my budget, especially if it’s gonna have a penchant to overwhelm me - the thing I am trying to avoid!
