Penna is the ADHD planner that shows you time: your day as a visual board, a countdown for the task you're on, and AI that runs on your iPhone. 100% offline, no account, no one watching. SEE TIME (new in 1.4) • Estimated duration on every tile — 15, 30, 45, 60 min or your own • A countdown ring on the task you're doing right now • Countdown widget on the Home and Lock Screen: what's now, what's next, how long is left • Morning check-in in 3 taps: your energy today → a day that fits it • Start with a free trial ON-DEVICE AI (Apple Intelligence) • Magic Breakdown — a big scary task becomes 3–7 tiny first steps, each under 15 minutes • Organize — your Brain Dump sorts itself into tiles with dates and tags, you approve every change • Smart input understands "call mom tomorrow evening" — in English and Russian AI runs entirely on your iPhone. No cloud, no account — Data Not Collected stays true. Requires iPhone 15 Pro or newer with Apple Intelligence; everything else works on any iPhone with iOS 18. Most planners want your email and your data. Penna wants neither. Everything lives on your device. Your backups are encrypted and yours to keep.
