# How to Automatically Redeem Time on a Routine (Banking Time)?

In this article, we’ll explain how to set up an Automation to redeem time automatically without having to open the Jomo app. It’s a useful time-saver for anyone who wants to go a little further. Please read all instructions carefully.

## ${color}[#000000](**Which Feature Does This Automation Apply To?**)

This automation only applies to **Routines**, especially in **Collecting Time** mode, meaning the version of Routines where you collect screen time by completing different actions.

Here’s how it works: if you have available time on blocked apps, all you need to do is open one of those apps, and **the allowed time will start counting down. As soon as you close the app, the timer will stop.**

## ${color}[#000000](**How to Set Up the Automation to Auto-Redeem Time?**)

**Please make sure you create your Routine before continuing.**

**Add the “Redeem Time” automation:**

1. Open the **Shortcuts** app.
2. Go to **Automation** ▸ **New Automation**. *(iOS 27: Tap the blue **New Shortcut** button.)*
3. Select **App** from the list. *(iOS 27: Tap the Apple Intelligence icon to switch to List View, then tap **Automation** and select **App**.)*
4. Choose the app associated with your Routine. *(iOS 27: Tap the blue rectangle next to **When**.)*
5. Enable **Is Opened** and **Run Immediately**. *(iOS 27: Skip directly to step 8.)*
6. Tap **Next**.
7. In the search bar at the bottom, type **Jomo**, then select **Redeem Time**.
8. In the blue field, enter the exact name of your Routine. Be sure it matches exactly, including capitalization.
9. Tap **✓** / **Done** to save. *(iOS 27: Tap the **<** button in the top-left corner to go back.)*

![Step 9](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/2/1/9/3219039fc179d800/image_78jgog.png =730xauto)

**iOS 27 (Steps 8 → 9 remains the same)**

**Add the “Stop Redeem Time” automation:**

To stop redeeming time when you close the app, you’ll need to create a second automation. Follow the same steps as above, but in **step 8**, select **Stop Redeem Time** instead of **Redeem Time**.

## ${color}[#000000](**How to Automatically Redeem Time From a Website?**)

The setup is a little more complicated and comes with one limitation: to stop redeeming time, you’ll need to close Safari.

1. Open the **Shortcuts app.**
2. Go to **Automation**.
3. Tap **App**.
4. Select **Safari** from the list of apps.
5. Select **Is Opened** and **Run Immediately**, and turn off **Notify When Run**.
6. Tap **Next**.
7. In the search bar, search for **Wait**.
8. Set it to **1 second**.
9. In the search bar, search for **Get On-Screen.**
10. Tap the blue rectangle and select **URLs** from the list.
11. In the search bar, search for **If**.
12. Place it below **Get On-Screen URLs**.
13. Tap **is** and change it to **contains**.
14. Enter your website in the blue rectangle (e.g. komoot.com).
15. In the search bar, search for **Wait**.
16. Set it to **1 second**.
17. In the search bar, search for **Redeem Time**, then select the Jomo action.
18. In the blue rectangle, select the name of your **Routine**.
19. Save the automation.


**Create a second automation to stop redeeming time** :

1. Open the **Shortcuts app**.
2. Go to **Automation**.
3. Tap **App**.
4. Select **Safari** from the list of apps.
5. Select **Is Closed** and **Run Immediately**, and turn off **Notify When Run**.
6. Tap **Next**.
7. In the search bar, search for **Stop Redeeming Time**, then select the Jomo action.
8. In the blue rectangle, select the name of your **Routine**.
9. Save the automation.

**Important**: Because the automation can’t detect when you leave a specific website while staying in Safari, redeeming will continue until Safari is closed.
