Fixed schedules
Choose exact days when the work is meant to happen. The routine shows up on those dates, keeps the history tied together, and gives you a cleaner view than repeated task clones.
Feature
Routines give repeated work its own surface: fixed schedules when you want structure, weekly targets when you need flexibility, and a calendar plus streak model that makes consistency visible without turning every miss into drama.
Routines are part of TapTidy Pro.
Choose exact days when the work is meant to happen. The routine shows up on those dates, keeps the history tied together, and gives you a cleaner view than repeated task clones.
Some habits are better measured as "three times this week" than "every Tuesday." Frequency goals let you hit the target without pretending real life follows a perfect cadence.
Heatmaps, current streaks, best streaks, and calendar rollups make the pattern legible so you can adjust the system instead of merely feeling behind.
Why it helps
This matters for habits, maintenance tasks, household chores, recurring resets, and any work that becomes noisy when it lives only as ordinary tasks with dates attached.
Sleep, exercise, review, journaling, medication, reading, and other repeated behaviors work better when you can see consistency instead of just today's overdue count.
Trash days, resets, chore rotations, and repeat errands are easier to manage when the repeat logic and the completion history are first-class.
If a routine keeps slipping, weekly targets make it obvious whether the problem is discipline or an unrealistic schedule.

Routines FAQ
Most recurring-task systems stop at "repeat every X." The real value is in how the repeat behaves once life gets uneven.
Routines give repeated work its own calendar, consistency model, and room to breathe.
