Because regular to-do apps were designed by people who don't understand our brains.
Most to-do apps assume you can just look at a list and do things. If you have ADHD, you know that's not how it works. A plain text list is invisible within 30 seconds.
ADHD brains need dopamine. Rewards. Visual stimulation. Something that makes checking off a task feel like an achievement, not just moving to the next item.
Built for dopamine-seeking brains. Complete a task? Coins. Level up? Fireworks. The gamification isn't gimmicky. It's neuroscience.
The Purpose Wheel gives visual feedback on life balance. See it? Believe it. Want to fill it? Now you have motivation.
No endless scrolling lists. Focus on today. Complete things. Feel good. Repeat.
ADHD-friendly: Dopamine rewards, visual progress, no overwhelm.
Visual timeline instead of text list. Your day as colored blocks. Easier to process than endless bullet points.
Time-based view helps with time blindness. See how long things take. See when things happen.
ADHD-friendly: Visual, time-aware, reduces overwhelm.
Designed specifically for neurodivergent users. Apple App of the Year. Visual schedules with icons. Gentle reminders.
Made by people who get it. Shows in every design choice.
ADHD-friendly: Visual routines, gentle nudges, no judgment.
Turn your life into an RPG. Complete tasks to level up your character. Fight monsters with productivity.
Sounds ridiculous? It works. Gamification is ADHD medication for motivation.
ADHD-friendly: Maximum gamification. Dopamine paradise.
Text-only lists. Boring. Invisible. Your brain literally stops seeing them after a day.
No rewards. Check a box. Nothing happens. Why would your brain care about checking more boxes?
Overwhelming views. 47 tasks on screen. Paralysis. Close app. Feel guilty.
Shame-based reminders. "You have 23 overdue tasks!" Thanks for the anxiety.
Complex organization systems. Projects, tags, contexts, priorities. Setup takes forever. Maintenance takes forever. Actual tasks take a back seat.
Maximum 3 tasks per day. Not 10. Not 5. Three. Finish all three? Amazing. Add more if you want. But start with three.
Break everything down. "Clean apartment" is impossible. "Put dishes in dishwasher" is doable. Small wins compound.
Use body doubling. Work alongside someone (even virtually). ADHD brains work better with others present.
Reward yourself. Finished task? Take a break. Have a snack. Watch a video. Don't just move to the next thing.
Accept imperfection. Some days won't work. That's okay. Tomorrow is new. No shame spiral.
