Try flexible routines to organize your day. Tickl reminds you when it’s time to take a break, move, breathe, or get back to work, without stress or strict schedules.
If you live by a schedule, work and rest according to a routine, and know how to balance activity and rest — you’re a lucky person. I truly envy you. Though that probably means you discovered this product by accident, and maybe you don’t even need it.
But most of us are not like that. We don’t follow schedules. We work when something is interesting and procrastinate when it’s boring — with the same kind of passion. Very often, we understand that having some kind of routine could make us more productive, and as we get older, even healthier. We know it’s harmful to sit in front of a computer for hours without a break: knees start to ache, your neck stiffens, your eyesight worsens. We want to change that. But how? We keep searching. And now — another app. What could this one possibly offer us?
Tickl is based on a simple idea: the most accessible path from complete disorganization and a stiff back to the habit of alternating work and rest is to have a routine. But not a strict one — not the kind that makes you live by the clock and jump at every alarm that always rings at the wrong moment. A rigid routine is too demanding. Tickl helps you build a flexible, gentle routine — one that starts not on schedule, but when you are ready. It lets you adjust the intervals, gives you helpful hints, but doesn’t command you.
Tickl includes several ready-made routines — try them for free, they’re yours to keep. These are not just routines, but routines-as-ideas. They offer ways to organize computer work, sports, meals, even meditation. If you find one that fits — great, use it. If you’re tired of getting stuck at the computer, you’ll definitely find something useful: Tickl includes two timelines for that, one for office work, another for gaming. Tickl helps not only those who can’t stop, but also those who can’t start. It’s not only about discipline — it’s also about overcoming procrastination.
How does Tickl work? You launch a routine, and the app sends you notifications at the right moments — to take a break, or to get back to work. The notifications are not intrusive, but they’re timely. They remind you to stretch, rest your eyes, breathe, grab a snack, or get some fresh air. And if you start following these small suggestions, you’ll gradually form a habit. A simple, sustainable one. And that habit will make you more productive. And maybe even a little happier.
Now, about the practical stuff: Tickl is free as long as you use the built-in templates — they’re called timelines. Whatever you’re doing, you can see if this method of gentle, guided routines works for you. And if it does, you’ll probably want to create your own. For your life, your tasks, your rhythm. Tickl offers a tool for that — the timeline editor. It’s available via subscription or as a one-time purchase.
Try Tickl. Maybe the method of flexible routines is exactly what you’ve been missing to become a little more organized.
