Task integrations, multi window, timezones, exporting and new plan

Routine 1.1 is here, packed with new features and improvements.

Let’s dive right in.

💰 New plan

We listened to you and introduced a new Personal plan at $5/month that includes time blocking & boxing, exporting, unlimited file uploads and more.

Check it out at https://routine.co/pricing.

☑️ Task integrations

You can now bring your tasks from Gmail, Todoist, Asana and Microsoft To Do.

Bring all your emails, tasks, and more into a single place: your Routine Universal Inbox.

Universal inbox with tasks synchronized from Asana, Microsoft To Do, Todoist, Gmail and Notion.

🖥️ Multi window support

Because you can do so much inside Routine — from managing your tasks, scheduling meetings, maintaining your team knowledge base, tracking projects and more —, it can sometimes feel like you need to navigate a lot to switch context.

Routine now support multiple windows, allowing you to open as many windows and contexts as you want.

You can either open new windows by clicking the main Routine menu in your operating system bar (at the top on macOS) or pressing CMD/CTRL+SHIFT+N. Even more, you can press OPT/ALT when performing an action in Routine to open it in a new window e.g OPT/ALT while double clicking a task will open it in a new window.

Open as many windows as you want to work across contexts.

Note that we will soon introduce tabs to further split context inside a single window.

💾 Exporting

You can now export your information as PDF, HTML, or Markdown, making it extremely easy to share information with people external to your Routine environment.

Export your objects as PDF, Markdown or HTML.

🕰️ Time zones

Working with teammates across time zones is now much easier. Just add as many timezones as you want to your calendar. Great to easily and quickly schedule meetings.

🤝 Meeting recording

In addition to making meeting recording more reliable across a variety of operating systems, a few new features are making meeting recording easier to do and harder to forget.

First, a new dedicated Settings screen has been introduced:

Control all aspects of your meetings: auto start, meeting detection, prompt etc.

From there, you can now define exactly the prompt that is used. As a result, you could tell Routine to save the transcript itself instead of summarizing, or summarizing them in a way that best fits your workflow.

We also added a /meet command to allow taking notes anywhere. This is particularly useful for taking meeting notes in your team, either in pages, or in a database of meeting notes for example.

/meet to record meetings in any workspace.

Finally, because Routine does not involve a bot joining your meetings automatically, it is easy to forget to launch recording.

Luckily, Routine now detects you joining a meeting (Google Meet, Slack Huddle, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and more) and offers you to record it.

Be notified whenever you join a call to record it.
