RoutineFlow vs Timecap

RoutineFlow

• People with ADHD who want a routine split into timed steps
• Building a morning or study routine from a template
• Seeing how long each step of a routine actually takes

Timecap

• People who want timed, counted and check-off habits in one app
• Cutting back on a habit by setting a weekly limit
• Adults with ADHD, the audience both store listings address

RoutineFlow

• The vendor does not publish what the free version includes; Google Play reviews from 2024 say it is limited to one routine with basic analytics.
• The App Store listing is marked as only for iPhone, and no web or desktop app is offered.
• The US App Store shows several prices for the same period, such as $29.99, $39.99 and $59.99 for a year; the app shows the price that applies.
• The website is a single page that still labels insights as coming soon, so current features are documented only in the store listings.

Timecap

• Two App Store reviews from January 2026 say the iPhone app opened on a subscription screen that could not be closed, which conflicts with the free version the listing describes.
• The US App Store shows several prices for the same period, plus two 7-day Free Trial items at $7.99 and $47.99 with no billing period; the app shows the price that applies.
• No web or desktop app is listed. It runs on iPhone, iPad and Android.
• The website's terms and privacy policy date from August 2020, and the iOS and Android listings are published under two different company names.

RoutineFlow

Routines as a sequence of timers

Each step in a routine gets a timer and an emoji, and the routine plays through the steps in order so there is one thing to do at a time.

Templates and custom routines

A routine can start from a template, such as a morning or study routine, or be built from predefined and custom steps.

Weekly planner

The Google Play listing describes a visual planner for the week, so routines can be scheduled across days and not only for the morning.

AI task breakdown

The Google Play feature list names an AI Task Breakdown for ADHD and autism. The listing does not describe how it works or which plan includes it.

Analytics

Statistics cover the past 365 days and show how long each task takes, which the vendor presents as a way to plan around time blindness.

Reminders, alarms and a widget

Notifications prompt you when a routine is due. The iOS release notes add scheduled alarms in February 2026 and a home screen widget that shows the next routine.

Timecap

Time, quantity and completion activities

An activity can run a timer, count how many times something was done or be ticked off as complete, so timed sessions, tallies and check-offs sit in one list.

Goals and limits

Each activity is either a goal to reach, such as meditating 4 times a week, or a limit to stay under, such as 2 cigarettes a week. Periods can be daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or set weekdays.

Reminders and limit alerts

Reminders arrive when a goal is close to being missed, and a notification is sent when a limit is reached.

Streaks and reports

Statistics include a calendar view, a success percentage and a streak counter that compares the current streak with the longest one.

Widgets

Home screen widgets give access to habits without opening the app. The iOS release notes also mention lock screen widgets and an Apple Watch complication.

Backup and sync

Data stays on the device unless backup is turned on. With backup enabled it is stored on Timecap's server and syncs between iOS and Android devices.
