Metrum vs Routime AI

Metrum combines study cycles, syllabus tracking, focus sessions, and analytics for students across its web app and iPhone app. Study cycles rotate through subjects with individual weights, while the service tracks progress and what comes next. Users can load an exam syllabus and mark topics as theory, revision, or mastered. Sessions can be timed or logged by hand and saved to history; the iPhone timer offers Pomodoro and free-timer modes with rain, café, or forest audio. Analytics compare study hours with a daily goal and show time by subject. Study groups let users share a syllabus with friends and see who is studying. Sessions, cycles, and stats sync between web and iPhone under one account. The free plan includes one study cycle and one owned group of up to five members. Pro costs $4.99 a month or US$39.99 per year and adds unlimited cycles and groups, broader analytics periods, and export. The iPhone beta is free during beta but requires iOS 26 and Apple's TestFlight app.

Routime AI is a daily planner that turns goals into routines, schedules, and checklists, then adapts plans as the week changes. Users describe what they want to accomplish, and the app generates personalized plans for activities such as morning and evening routines, work, study, fitness, personal projects, and everyday tasks. It is available on Android, iOS, and the web, and says schedules sync across web and mobile devices. Schedules are stored on the device first, so they remain accessible offline; changes synchronize when a device reconnects. Mobile notifications display the current event with a live progress indicator. Routime also supports creating and sharing events or schedules with friends or publicly, and discovering other people’s plans. Users can edit or draft posts and schedules, publish them, or make them private. The app is free to use, with no specific limits stated. Google Play reports that the developer says data is encrypted in transit and users can request deletion. It also reports that the app may collect device or other IDs and does not share data with third parties. The listing names Maciej Bartłomiej Wilczyński as developer and Poland as the developer location.
