Timecap is a flexible ADHD-friendly planner for tasks, habits, routines, limits, and focus sessions. Plan your day, track progress by time, count, or completion, and use reminders and widgets to stay on track without overwhelm. Structure your life and build sustainable habits. Never forget, never procrastinate, never lose sight… Focus is not just another tracking tool - it's your companion in navigating adult ADHD. [WHAT USERS SAY] “ADHD approved I have tried so many habit tracking apps and this is by far the best one. I love the way it looks (simple, sleek, minimalist, but customizable). It doesn’t overwhelm me looking at it. It also doesn’t send me unnecessary notifications” -Cathryn0404 “Deleted my other Habit tracker apps Aside from checking activities off your list, you can classify habits under “Goal” or “Limit”. That got me considering the things I should be cutting down on (like coffee intake). What might be the most interesting aspect is the “Time Tracker” option. I deleted all the other Habit Tracker apps I had on my phone after playing around with this one… this app just seems more motivating.” -AliKokua “Truly checks all the boxes Download this app immediately. Clean, intuitive interface. Tracks habit building and breaking. Daily task timer. It’s even become my to-do list and reminder app. Can’t speak highly enough of this app and the developer. I had nearly given up.” -jajajoshua [WHAT THE MEDIA SAYS] Digital Journal: “a global habit tracker” GQ: “zero distractions and ads” Yahoo Finance: “habit tracking key player” [HOW FOCUS CAN HELP] 1. Boost Reading Habits: Distracted easily? Use Focus to increase focus and read more books. 2. Enhance Physical Health: Keep track of your workouts and turn sporadic bursts of energy into a regular exercise routine. 3. Learn New Skills: ADHD is not a limitation - expand your skillset at your own pace. 4. Manage Side Projects: Keep your diverse interests under control, prioritizing and progressing each project effectively. 5. Regularize Self-care: From flossing your teeth to meditation - track and maintain those essential routines. 6. Habit Formation: Understand where your time goes and create habits tailored to your unique brain. 7. Minimize Destructive Habits: Smoke less, reduce alcohol, limit unproductive screen time - use Focus to manage impulsivity. [WHY CHOOSE FOCUS FOR ADULT ADHD] -> Individual Activity Trackers: Every activity you track is a step towards understanding and managing your ADHD better. -> Visual Progress: Visual cues work wonders with ADHD. Watch your growth with beautifully designed statistics. -> Motivating Reminders & Notifications: Just when you need a nudge, Timecap's reminders can help keep you on track. -> Flexible Timeframes: Set daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly goals and limits - you're in control. Unlike other habit trackers, Focus ensures you invest time in what truly matters. Streaks are meaningful and fulfilling. And if one breaks?

The brain you end the day with is not the one you woke up with. BrainRest turns your screen time into something you can actually feel. Your Brain Level climbs from 1 to 10 as the hours pile up — Fresh, Chill, Meh, Tired, Struggling, Fading, Cooked, Fried, Melting, Dead — and a Brain Buddy sits on your home screen looking exactly as cooked as you do. Then it helps you bring the number back down. BrainRest requires a subscription or a one-time Lifetime purchase. There is no free tier and no free version — every feature described below, including app blocking, Focus Mode and the Bedtime Schedule, needs a paid plan. The annual plan starts with a 7-day free trial. SEE WHERE THE HOURS GO • Daily and weekly screen time, broken down app by app • Tap any app for its own hourly chart and week-over-week trend • A calendar of every tracked day, so streaks and slides are obvious • Your Brain Level, recalculated as you use your phone BLOCK WHAT KEEPS PULLING YOU BACK • App limits — set a daily cap and get shielded when you hit it • Focus Mode — one tap, distractions locked, with an auto turn-off time • Bedtime Schedule — your phone goes quiet at night and wakes when you do • Shields you can't swipe past by accident WIDGETS THAT NAG, GENTLY Seven home-screen widgets: Brain Buddy, the Daily Goal ring, Top Apps, and Pulse in single, stacked and wide layouts. The number you're avoiding, right where you keep looking. YOUR USAGE STAYS ON YOUR PHONE Screen time and per-app usage are read from your device and never leave it. There is no cloud copy of your usage and nothing about your habits is sold. Your account exists to keep your settings and goals, nothing more. WHY IT WORKS Most screen time apps show you a chart and hope you feel bad. BrainRest gives the number a face and a consequence, then puts the block one tap away — at the exact moment you would have opened the app anyway. The average person spends over four hours a day on their phone. That is roughly sixty days a year. BrainRest is the plan to take some of it back. PRICING A paid plan is required to use BrainRest. Nothing is sold separately and no feature costs extra — every plan includes everything described above. • Monthly — $9.00 per month • Annual — $69.00 per year, starting with a 7-day free trial • Lifetime — $199.00, a one-time purchase that never renews Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the end of the period. Manage your plan or turn off auto-renew in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when a subscription is purchased. —— Terms of Use: https://brainrest.pro/terms Privacy Policy: https://brainrest.pro/privacy
