Now shows you exactly one task at a time, so your ADHD brain never has to fight a wall of to-dos again. Now is free to download. Full access requires a Now Pro subscription: $29.99/year with a 7-day free trial, $4.99/month, or a $59.99 one-time lifetime unlock. Every feature described below and shown in the screenshots is included with Now Pro — no extra purchase needed. Optional cosmetic add-ons are sold separately as one-time purchases. INCLUDED WITH NOW PRO - One screen, one task, one visible time ring — no scrolling, no overwhelm, no decisions you don't have the bandwidth for right now. - The Stuck button with three real rescues: a 2-minute micro-timer to just start, tiny keyword-matched next steps, or a guilt-free swap to something easier. - Brain dump — type it or talk it out, and Now quietly turns the chaos into clean, doable task cards. - Mochi, your buddy who hatches, levels up, and evolves as you earn Sparks for every single win. Pet it, dress it, feed it — it never scolds, never guilts. - Zero guilt built in, anywhere. No red, no overdue, no missed. Streaks freeze instead of breaking, and unfinished tasks simply move aside at midnight. - The brain-type quiz (Diesel Engine, Time Traveler, Popcorn Brain, or Deep Diver) adapts your timers, notifications, and daily picks to match. - Gentle reminders that respect quiet hours, a Time Mirror that shows how long things really take, and Comfy, Balanced, or Turbo days that flex with your energy. - Moments to collect, daily quests, combo bonuses, lucky sparks, and a treasure chest of surprises. OPTIONAL ONE-TIME PURCHASES (sold separately, never required) - Extra buddy characters: Blaze ($2.99), Luna ($2.99), Nova ($4.99) - Spark packs: Spark Pouch 500 ($1.99), Spark Chest 1500 ($4.99).
