Why do people switch from Akiflow to Routine?

Akiflow is a tool focused on task capture and time blocking. It helps individuals schedule their to-dos directly onto their calendars, boosting personal productivity through structured daily planning. It’s excellent for organizing your time, but limited for anything else.

Routine goes much further by providing individuals and teams with an all-in-one work platform. Routine combines tasks, calendars, contacts but also allows for taking notes. Even more, Routine's custom types allow users to define their data models i.e the kind of items they manipulate on a daily basis, be it projects, customers, goals, habits or anything else. This allows Routine to truly become your only productivity app. Finally, through deep integrations, Routine synchronizes the data from all the other apps you use, unifying all your work, calendars, notes, contacts, projects and more into a single experience.

Underrated productivity apps IMO 👀 — @NotionHQ — @Todoist — @RoutineHQ

I'm actually kind of blown away by @routinehq. It's refreshing to finally see some innovation in the daily planner app category. There's a ton of potential here. Task management is time management.

Routine combines tasks, calendar management, and documentation in a UI that enables optimal week-to-week planning. My favorite feature is the dashboard, where I can quickly capture things that otherwise would fall through the cracks.

I don't know how I lived before Routine App, I have tried so many productivity apps, note apps, tasks, and calendars. These guys created a very simple super app that has removed 90% of my stress and time waste.

Routine is so refreshingly thoughtful, not to mention keyboard-centric. I really do hope they keep the momentum and bring their vision to life (cross-platform).

Routine has become essential for my task management and is helping me to keep my tasks under control.

So happy I found this app and proud to be an early adopter!

Routine has helped me clearly map out my day. It reduces the noise of multiple calendars and long-term task lists into a one-day agenda view of what I can accomplish today. Routine provides me with a focused runway for the day.

Routine has become my go-to tool for organizing my day—it's like having a personal assistant right at my fingertips, streamlining how I manage my calendars, tasks, meetings, and notes all in one place.

Routine connects with Notion so they work perfectly together. I use it as my to do list app.

For those wondering how to get things done but have not checked out the calendar app Routine. You can type your tasks and drag them onto your calendar. Need I say more? Oh yes, and they have not begun charging yet!

Routine is my favorite calendar, with a mobile app, and it has almost all main features for free along with an amazing UI.

I tested a variety of apps and ultimately chose Routine. My reasons are straightforward: firstly, it seamlessly integrates with Google Calendar. Secondly, I appreciate its minimalist design, and finally, it encompasses all the features I require.
