Does not work for ADHD people, we can’t keep routines :( I have to remind myself to brush my teeth every day.
We might be shite at routine, but technology isn't!
Nothing wrong with having "brush teeth" as a daily task in Todoist or whatever flavour of todo app you click with! :)

Yes, I am doing this with Reminders app.
Do mean that you forget? Or don't want to?
I am ignorant of these things. Please let me know.
I forget (like most of things that do not have some immediate reward attached; so I have to engineer the reward somehow).
Thanks.
