ADHD planner and task manager built for brain dumps, hyperfocus, and scattered to-do lists. Turn chaos into clear next steps with the ADD framework. addTaskManager gives ADHD brains, busy professionals, and students a structured path from scattered to do lists to finished tasks — without the complexity of traditional task managers. A real ADHD planner, that works with your brain, not against it. The ADD Framework • Assess – Dump all your tasks, ideas, and projects here without worrying about priorities or deadlines. Just get them out of your head. • Decide – Review what you've captured. Assign contexts, set priorities, and schedule what needs scheduling. Move items forward when you're ready. • Do – Your focused workspace. Only what you've decided to work on appears here, organized by time: today, this week, this month. Features That Actually Help • Quick Capture – Add a task in seconds. Decide where it belongs later. • Universal Search – Find any task, project, or idea instantly across all realms from one search bar. • Real-Time Sync – Your task manager seamlessly syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac via iCloud. Start on your phone, continue on your tablet. • Share & Collaborate – Invite others to shared collections. Everyone stays in sync automatically through CloudKit. • ZenStatus – See how many items are in each stage of your workflow at a glance. • AI Summaries – Intelligent insights about your tasks and patterns. On-device processing means your data stays private. (Requires iOS 18.1+ with Apple Intelligence) • Collections – Group related items across all realms. Create a collection for a project, a client, or any way you organize your work. Built for Focus No gamification. No social features. No complexity for complexity's sake. Just a clear path from "I have too much to do" to "I know exactly what to do next." Works well for anyone who feels overwhelmed by traditional task managers — particularly those with ADHD who benefit from externalizing thoughts and breaking work into clear stages. Privacy First All your data stays on your devices and in your personal iCloud. AI features process entirely on-device. We don't have access to your tasks.

We didn’t just update Clary; we completely reimagined it. We realized that for a productivity app to actually work, it needs to disappear. It shouldn't feel like "using an app"—it should feel like an extension of your brain. So we rebuilt everything—from the UI to the AI—to create the first frictionless planner. Clary is designed for "zero-thinking" capture. You don't fill out forms. You don't manually set dates. You simple speak, type, or snap, and Clary's completely overhauled AI engine understands exactly what you mean, where it goes, and when you should do it. It just works. Clary is different. We believe organizing your life shouldn't feel like a chore. It should feel like a conversation with a brilliant executive assistant who just gets it. Clary is the first task manager designed to be your AI co-pilot, handling the administrative drag so you can focus on what you do best: achieving your goals. WHY CLARY? Most to-do apps feel like data entry. Clary feels like magic. We use advanced AI to handle the tedious parts of planning—sorting, tagging, scheduling, and breaking down tasks—so you can focus on doing the work that matters. CAPTURE ANYTHING, ANYHOW Speak Your Mind: Just say, "Remind me to email the proposal tomorrow morning and follow up next week." Clary understands the context, sets the due date, and prioritizes it for you. Snap Your Notes: Have a messy whiteboard or a handwritten sticky note? Snap a photo. Clary's AI reads it and converts it into a digital checklist instantly. Brain Dump Freely: Overwhelmed? Type a messy paragraph of everything on your mind. Clary will deconstruct it into clear, manageable subtasks and organize them into your projects. MASTER YOUR WORKFLOW Smart Scheduling: Clary doesn't just list tasks; it helps you plan them. Our AI respects your wake-up times and working hours to suggest the best times to get things done. Visual Clarity: Switch between a powerful Kanban board for projects or a standard list for daily agendas. Focus Tools: Built-in Pomodoro timer to help you work in sprints, plus an Eisenhower Matrix to ensure you’re always working on what’s actually important, not just what’s urgent. Gamified Consistency: Build a productivity streak with our "Reflect" system. Track your progress daily and stay motivated. SEAMLESS INTEGRATION Google Calendar Sync: See your events alongside your tasks. Never double-book yourself again. Home Screen Widgets: distinct and beautiful widgets keep your goals front and center. Siri & Shortcuts: Capture tasks completely hands-free while driving or walking. CLARY FREE The perfect starting point for getting organized. Unlimited tasks and notes Standard reminders Up to 2 projects Basic AI capture CLARY PRO Unlock your ultimate productivity potential.
