What it is

The review
Awakee is a routine planner and habit tracker for people who want timed sequences as well as standalone habits. Its strongest fit is an Apple-device user who values step-by-step pacing, reminders, and progress history; those who need Android or web access should look elsewhere.
Overview
Awakee combines a routine timer with habit schedules, goals, and streak tracking. Users can assemble routines with a guided builder or start from more than 100 community presets, then set durations for individual steps. That structure is useful when a morning, study, gym, or evening routine needs pacing, but is more machinery than a simple checklist requires.
The timer keeps running in the background and on the lock screen while users switch apps. Habits can be tracked separately, with progress charts and streak history; reminders can be completed from notifications, and home- and lock-screen widgets keep plans accessible. Apple Watch support and iCloud sync round out a distinctly Apple-centered experience. Routines and habits are stored on the device and can sync through a personal iCloud account, with no account required.
Key features
- Routine builder and presets: Guided creation and more than 100 community presets reduce the effort of starting a sequence. Step durations add useful structure for activities that benefit from a steady pace.
- Background timer: Timing continues on the lock screen and while other apps are open, so users can follow a sequence without staying inside Awakee.
- Habit tracking: Flexible schedules and goals, paired with streak history and progress charts, suit users who want a record of consistency beyond completing routines.
- Reminders and widgets: Notification completion and home- and lock-screen widgets provide practical ways to act on plans without repeatedly opening the app.
- Privacy and support: The maker says it collects no personal data and uses no third-party analytics or crash-reporting services. Subscription status is validated through RevenueCat using an anonymous app-generated identifier, device type, and purchase history. Apple processes payments through the App Store account, and the maker says it does not see payment details. Support typically responds within 1–2 business days and accepts feedback by email or in the app.
Pricing
The Free plan costs nothing and allows creation of only a finite number of routines and habits. It is a sensible way to try the workflow, but users who want to build out a larger library will encounter a cap.
The Annual Subscription costs $1.99 a year, billed every 12 months, and the Awakee Premium Monthly plan costs $4.99 a month, billed monthly. Both are premium subscriptions. They auto-renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends. The annual option is the lower-cost recurring choice for a committed user; monthly billing offers a shorter commitment at a substantially higher rate over time.
Two promotional annual options are also given: Promotional Yearly Premium at $4.99 a year and Promotional Annual Premium at $9.99 a year. Awakee Premium Unlimited costs $19.99, paid once, while Lifetime Subscription costs $38.99, paid once. These one-time choices avoid recurring billing, though the two separate one-time prices and two promotional annual prices make it worth checking the specific offer presented before purchasing.
Platforms
Awakee supports iOS and macOS, with App Store compatibility also covering iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. iCloud sync uses the user's personal account. This is a coherent fit for people already working across Apple devices, but it excludes Android and web users.
Who it's for
Awakee is best suited to people who want routines broken into timed steps and also want separate habit goals, reminders, and visible progress. Apple Watch support and iCloud sync strengthen its appeal to Apple users who want their planning on more than one device. It is less suitable for anyone who needs a cross-platform planner or only wants an uncomplicated checklist.
Pros and cons
- Pro: More than 100 presets and a guided builder give users multiple starting points for timed routines.
- Pro: Background and lock-screen timing, notification completion, and widgets make routines usable without keeping the app foregrounded.
- Pro: Standalone habit schedules, goals, streak history, and charts cover progress tracking beyond routine completion.
- Pro: No account is required, and personal iCloud sync keeps storage within the Apple ecosystem.
- Con: The free plan caps how many routines and habits can be created, limiting it as a permanent option for users with many plans.
- Con: Apple-only platform support rules it out for Android or web-based workflows.
- Con: The mix of recurring, promotional, and one-time prices requires care when choosing the offer that matches a user's billing preference.

Verdict
Choose Awakee if you use Apple devices and want timed routines, habit tracking, and reminder tools together, especially with an Apple Watch or iCloud in the mix. The free creation cap is the main drawback, and Android or web users should choose a cross-platform alternative instead.
