FAQ

Common Questions

Answers to everything you need to know about using Rouutine.

Does Rouutine need an internet connection? +
No — Rouutine is 100% offline. All routine schedules, streaks, companion artwork, and nudge messages work completely without internet. Notifications are scheduled directly on your phone using Android's local AlarmManager.
Will notifications arrive if my phone is restarted? +
Yes. Rouutine registers a boot receiver that automatically reschedules all your active routine alarms as soon as your phone finishes turning on. Please ensure notification and exact alarm permissions remain enabled in your Android system settings.
Can I change my companion creature or nudge tone later? +
Yes. You can switch your global nudge tone (🌸 Gentle, ⚡ Energetic, 🤣 Funny) anytime in Settings. You can also edit any routine by tapping its card on the Home screen to change its creature companion, scheduled time, or repeating days.
What happens if I miss a scheduled routine? +
If a scheduled routine is not completed before midnight, the streak for that routine pauses. You can complete it manually the following morning, but daily consistency is what powers streak increments. Our creatures never scold or nag you — they warmly cheer you on to start fresh.
How is my data stored and backed up? +
All your data is kept locally in an encrypted Room SQLite database on your device. In accordance with Google Play security compliance, device cloud backup rules protect your settings while keeping local database files strictly private to your phone.
Are there ads, subscriptions, or paywalls? +
Rouutine provides an ad-free, clutter-free experience. The core version supports up to 5 routine slots with creature companions, streak tracking, and full offline privacy. Any future pro tier will be an optional one-time purchase without recurring subscriptions.
