Smart Routine Coach — AI-Powered Task & Habit App

Product Design • UX/UI • System Design • AI Experience

Project Overview

This project focuses on building a smart productivity app that helps users manage their day through AI-generated tasks, adaptive routines, and a clean daily timeline. Instead of manually planning everything, users describe what they want to do — and the app structures, schedules, and optimizes their day automatically.
The goal was to design a lightweight, simple, and supportive tool that blends:
To-dos
Habits
Daily routines
AI guidance
…into one experience.

Key Features Designed

1. Floating “Add Task” Button

A minimal floating action button fixed at the bottom-right of the screen. It opens a bottom-sheet where users can either:
Add a task manually
Or use “Create with AI” to generate tasks automatically from natural language.
I designed both interaction styles:
Normal task form
AI-powered creation flow
Smooth animations, ripple effects, and snap transitions

2. AI Task Creator

Users type anything (“Finish homepage redesign by tomorrow afternoon”), and the AI turns it into a structured task with:
Title
Date & time
Priority
Suggested tag
Optional description
I created:
The conversational flow
Dialog prompts
Microcopy
The task preview card
Confirmation states

3. Adaptive Daily Timeline

The home screen displays the user’s day broken into:
Morning
Afternoon
Evening
Tasks and habits automatically slot into available time, with the option to ask the AI to:
Plan the day
Reorganize tasks
Reschedule missed items

4. Routine System

Designed a flexible routine builder with:
Morning / Evening routines
Drag-and-drop habit ordering
Frequency controls
AI “improve my routine” suggestions

5. AI Coach (Chat Interface)

A dedicated space where users can talk to the assistant to:
Plan the day
Rebuild missed routines
Create habits
Ask for suggestions
This required designing:
Chat layout
Message bubbles
Action blocks
Timeline previews

6. Progress & Insights

A clean analytics section showing:
Habit streaks
Weekly completion rates
Personal insights (“You get more done before noon”)
All visuals were created with a calm, minimal, friendly style.

Design Approach

My focus was on:
A soft, wellness-inspired interface
Smooth micro-interactions
Non-invasive productivity
A tone that feels encouraging, not stressful
The design direction blends: Linear × Notion × Headspace
With:
Soft gradients
Rounded cards
Glass blur
Clear typography
Simple iconography

What I Delivered

Full app structure and navigation
Component system (TaskCard, HabitCard, Timeline, Coach bubbles, etc.)
AI dialog logic
User flows for all major actions
UI for task creation, routines, progress, and AI features
Motion & interaction specs
