Your steps, your pace

Build a routine with room to pause.

If the same sequence helps you get going, save it once. Quiet Next lets you name the steps that help with getting ready, starting work, tidying up or winding down. You decide the order and minutes.

No account, subscription or payment required for your first two saved routines.

Three simple starting points

Building your first routine? Choose an example in the app, change anything, then save. Nothing starts automatically.

1

Morning start · 8 minutes

Drink some water (1 minute), get ready (5 minutes), then choose one next step (2 minutes).

2

Start work · 13 minutes

Open what you need (1 minute), choose one small task (2 minutes), then work on that task (10 minutes).

3

Evening reset · 10 minutes

Put a few things away (5 minutes), get ready for tomorrow (3 minutes), then take a quiet break (2 minutes).

These are examples, not targets. Shorten a step, remove it or write your own. You choose when each step starts.

Save and change your sequence

  1. Open Custom routines, or choose Manage routines in Settings.
  2. Start with an example or a blank routine. Name each step and choose 1 to 120 minutes.
  3. Add, remove or move steps, then save. A routine can hold up to 12 steps.
  4. Choose Start routine. When a step is done, count it, then deliberately start the next step. You can pause, minimize, restart or end a timer.

Editing a saved routine does not change the copy in an ongoing run. A reload resumes the timer or keeps the next step ready. Finishing a timer never silently starts another one.

Two routines free. Your everyday tools stay free.

Save two routines free. Guidance, timers, projects, check-ins, notifications, backups and exports are free too. You can copy a saved routine and change a few steps.

Plus is not available yet. It is planned as an optional one-time unlock for up to 20 saved routines, with no subscription. The store will show the price before checkout.

Your routines stay on your device

No routine names or step sequences are sent to a server. Settings includes backup and restore so you can move your writing to another device. A backup does not transfer paid ownership. Refunds or revoked access never delete saved routines or block backups.

The browser version and native app have separate local data. Use a backup to move it. Learn more in Privacy and Support.
