how

how_to_write_a_routine

The JSON form Routine Run reads a routine in: every field and every action a step can take. Use it when writing a routine for routine_link, start_new_run or propose_new_routine.

routine

routine_link

Checks a routine written in the form how_to_write_a_routine describes and returns a link. Opened on an iPhone with Routine Run, it shows the routine on the app's review screen, where the person saves it or not. Nothing is kept here. Give the person the link and the JSON too, in case the link is opened somewhere else.

starter

find_starter_routine

Searches the routines the app ships — mornings, focus, on call, chores and more — by words in their name or description. Each comes with its steps and a link that adds it in the app.
