Tiimo - Visual Daily Planner 4+

As someone who is neurodivergent, this app has helped me bring order and structure to what was an overwhelming amount of unstructured time. I highly recommend trying it for a couple weeks if you think you’ll benefit, because you’ll probably find it as helpful as I did.

Now for why I docked a star: there are a couple of things that could really improve the app. A search feature for the icons would streamline use. More background colors as well (especially a white background option) would be nice, as I’ve found I run out of color coding colors quickly. Also, being able to schedule multiple things at one time (such as eating lunch while at work) and being able to more easily repeat activities on the same day (rather than just the next day/ week at the same time) would be great for those of us who take meds more than once daily and while doing other things. Finally, adapting the app to be available to sync on the smarter FitBit devices would be VERY helpful (I’d gladly pay a fee to download it onto my device if that’s what it takes). Though these would make the app better and more useful, it’s already pretty great, so if I had the option to give it 4.5 instead of 4, I would have.

Dear katswimmer,

First of all thank you so much for giving us this lovely review ✨

I am happy to let you know that very soon you can search in icons. We just need to test it properly before sending it out there!

I've noted down you wish for more colors. Did you know you can also create your own colors by clicking the + button when you select icon color?

We are right now working on activities that have a duration only so that you can start them when it fits you. That will allow you to have multiple things going on, as you can start activities while still having some scheduled.

Officially we don't support FitBit. However if the watch mirrors your phone notifications, you would get your notifications from Tiimo as well as other apps on your phone. Some users have gotten back to us saying they do this, however we didn't test this ourselves so no guarantees 🙏

Thank you for the review, and for the feedback! 💚

Kind regards,

Signe from Tiimo

I fully acknowledge that this app is a work in progress, and is getting a little better with every update. But there’s still a perpetual problem where as soon as Tiimo is updated, a new feature is rolled out, bugs are fixed and glitches are patched, there is always another problem or new bugs that come up when it seems to be improving. It’s like one step forward and two steps back. I don’t quite understand that because the concept and design of this app seems pretty simple (although I’m sure there’s more to it under the surface).

I don’t know, I’m just trying to get through my days, get stuff done and not let ADHD (and what I suspect is ASD) get the best of me. This app helps some, but the benefits kind of become redundant when I have to manually go in and correct things because little bugs in the program throw off my routine. The one I’m the most frustrated with right now is the fact that Tiimo likes to log me out of the app on my Apple Watch randomly - it almost always happens overnight, and it sometimes when I’m in the middle of an active routine, and I don’t realize until more time than I had intended to spend on an activity has passed and then “whoops! I have to enter my log-in information again.”

If you have ADHD or are on the autism spectrum, you know how frustrating and discouraging interruptions to routine can be, especially in their early stages before you’re fully comfortable with them.

Hi, CalvinationStation! Thanks for your review. Please know that we understand your frustration, it is not our intention to develop new features and then be plagued by some bugs. Our intention is for the app to run as smoothly as possible so that it can be a helpful tool that users also enjoy using. The team is already aware of the Apple Watch issue and there is an update on the way which is going to fix this issue (being released very soon). We truly apologise for all the inconvenience this has caused you. Warmly, Team Tiimo

I don’t have adhd or autism but this app has helped me to reflect and improve on my routines and systems a lot. It’s one of the best calendar / routine apps since Google Calendar , which is saying a lot bc GCal was the standard for years and over these past few months I’ve already fallen in love with tiimos capabilities. Only thing is I am unable to use the new Widget functionality on the app which I was looking forward to. I have the latest tiimo version so I’m not sure why it’s not available for my iPhone? But that brings me to my suggestions:

What would really make this app spectacular is if it had 2-way sync with Apple Calendar /Google Calendar and if there was a way to block other apps while using this app.
2-way sync is important to me because i like my events and routines to be backed in my base calendar which is Google Calendar. And having to switch between the two constantly can be frustrating. Also, my second point kind of relates to the widget feature, as I would like to be focused on only the tiimo activity that’s currently scheduled and not be distracted, but having to open the app each time defeats that purpose. Nevertheless I’m excited for what’s to come feature wise with this app as its grown so much, if these features could also be taken into consideration I’d appreciate

Dear habits are a blessing! Thank you so much for the sweetest review! 💚 Hearing how the app has helped you really means a lot to us at Tiimo. About the widget issue, kindly reach out to customer support in our chat or at hello@tiimo.dk to get assistance. And thank you for your requests, I will pass them to team to look into. Warmly, Team Tiimo
