Congratulation on the launch. The product looks impressive, as some of the other recent entries like Daybridge and Amie in the similar space turned out to be long-listed waitlists where signing up and waiting for the product to get you on board is impossible. Without using any of these videos or screenshots, they are also meaningless, as only investors can get excited by that, not users! I understand that the product making process is lengthy, but end users should not get involved in between these if you don't have a plan to release a product in 1-3 months max. Rather than signing up on a waitlist, you can ask for emails to be notified when the product is ready to onboard regular users. This waitlist drama was started by MAILBOX in 2013 and is still getting misused by many.
I understand the frustration @nilsej. If we did not use a waiting list, everybody would use the product at the same time, the experience would likely be bad because we are still building it and we would not learn as much. Also a lot of users are on Windows or do not use Google Calendar. Letting them use the product is pointless since it is not ready for their platform/provider yet.
With the waiting list, you subscribe and we will let you know, as you said, when the product is ready for you.
Time, time, time.
It's always missing.
some time tracking applications require a lot of attention to themselves and instead of helping to manage their time, they only aggravate the problem ...
I wish you that your project could implement a wonderful and not time-consuming service that will really help people!
Great to see you on Product Hunt. I'd like to check out Routine for Windows (i.e. I'm still awaiting an invitation)!

@jmq Very excited to check this out! I've already invited two colleagues so hopefully that gets me in the saddle sooner rather than later! Congrats!
Edit: Nearly a month later and I get an email that it's another three months on the waiting list... π€·ββοΈ
No disrespect to the team behind this, but I'll likely forget what Routine was by time I can get a chance to check it out properly.

You are getting in a niche with a lot of demand and a lot of competition. The modern-day person is and should be all about maximazing their time, so congrats on the launch of a product helping do this in the best way possible.
