RUTE Work

Projects and teams, in the same app.

Switch to RUTE Work and the whole app changes: projects with numbered tickets, a board from To do to Done, and My work with the late ones first. Every ticket carries its next step, Start, To review or Done, so it moves along in one tap.

Questions, answered.

Pick a topic. Everything people usually ask, in plain words.

Yes. Everything in RUTE is free and there are no ads. Only RUTE Work, for projects and teams, is paid.

The app is for Android 7 and newer. On an iPhone, open rute.chitemere.co.zw/app in Safari: it is the same RUTE, and Share → Add to Home Screen gives it an icon. Reminders and widgets are on Android only for now.

RUTE is not on Google Play yet, so Play Protect does not know it. Choose Install anyway. Every version is signed with the same key, so updates install over the old one.

Most updates download inside the app when you open it. Bigger ones are a new download from this page, installed over the old one, keeping everything.

No account needed to start. Your first streak begins with one tick.
