Routines

A routine is a bundle of checks you run through together, and tap once to mark done. Here's running the one you're given, and building your own.

1. Run the routine you're given

   A routine is a bundle of checks you always run in the same breath, kept in one block instead of scattered down the list. The Weekend camping Kit brings one with it: "Overnight camp" — pitch the tent, air the gear, charge the phone, stow the food. New to the Kit? See Starting with the starter Kit.

   You'll find it on a trip day's checklist, in an "Evening" section below your other checks. Tap its checkbox to mark the whole thing done at once, or tap the name to expand it and work through the pieces one at a time. Routines live on a trip's checklist; a plain bike checklist doesn't have them.

2. With Pro

   The rest of this needs Pro.

3. Build your own

   On a trip's checklist, find "Your routines" and tap "+ New routine". The screen switches to selecting: tap the checks that belong together, then tap "Next" — it counts what you've picked. Name it under "New routine" and tap "Create", or pick one under "Or add to an existing routine" to drop them into a routine you already have.

   A routine can hold a whole gear list, not just loose items — while you're selecting, tap a gear list to pull it in whole. New to gear lists? See Customizing your checklist.

   Expand a routine later to change it. "Edit name" renames it, "+ Add items" starts another round of selecting, and the ✕ beside a member takes it out. "Delete this routine" clears the bundle and leaves the checks on your list.

4. Save it, reuse it

   A routine you build belongs to that trip. To keep it, expand it and tap "Save to my routines", give it a name, and tap "Save". It's now on your routines shelf — from the Garage, tap "Routines" in the row of buttons across the top to see everything you've saved.

   To use it on the next trip, open that trip's checklist and tap "+ Add a routine". MotoChecklist brings in an editable copy, so reworking it for this ride won't change the saved one. If the routine carries a gear list with it, the picker names it before you tap.

5. When it fires — morning or evening

   Every routine runs either in the morning or in the evening. Expand one and set "When" to "Morning" or "Evening". Morning routines sit with the rest of that day's checks; evening ones get their own "Evening" section further down, for the work that happens the night before — charging, drying gear, laying out tomorrow's layers.

   You can set it as you go: "When" is in the same box where you name a new routine. The Kit's "Overnight camp" arrives set to Evening.

6. Which days it applies to

   On a multi-day trip a routine runs every day unless you say otherwise. Expand it and you'll find "Days" — one chip per day of the trip: "Departure", "Day 1", "Day 2", and "Rest day" where you've got one. Tap a chip to turn that day off, and tap it again to turn it back on. The line underneath says where it stands: "All days", or the days you've picked, or "Applies to no days".

   A routine you've turned off for today doesn't disappear. It moves to a "Not on this day" row in the routines section, with a count of what's in there. Tap the row to open it, then tap a day chip to bring the routine back.
