Focus, Motivation & “Actually Getting Things Done”
For the days when “just start” feels impossible, these are the gentle structure and accountability your ADHD brain has been looking for.
Virtual Body‑Doubling for Real Humans
This is body-doubling without having to clean your house first. You hop on a video session with another human, say what you’re working on, and then quietly get stuff done together.
For ADHD brains that struggle to start, this is magic: external accountability, a defined time block, and someone else “there” so you don’t bail on yourself.

In Your Face – Reminders You Literally Can’t Ignore
If notifications disappear into the void for you, this one’s a lifesaver. In Your Face throws reminders up full-screen so you cannot just casually swipe them away and forget.
This has saved me from so many missed appointments!
Perfect for:
“I meant to leave 20 minutes ago…”
“I forgot I had that Zoom meeting...”

Due – The reminder app that lovingly nags you
Due! doesn’t assume you’ll remember after one notification. It keeps gently pinging you until you either:
Do the thing, or
Reschedule it.
No complicated system, no 47 features to set up - just persistent “hey, remember this?” energy that ADHD brains genuinely benefit from.
