It's a Widget. It's that simple. It lives on your home screen. Press and hold anywhere on your wallpaper, and add CUE Widget. CUE: ADHD Routine Widget was built around making reminders simple. Instead of asking you to open an app, unlock a screen, and scroll past everything else your phone thinks is urgent, CUE puts the one task you need to do directly on your home screen, visible before you've made a single decision about where to look. You see it, you tap it, and it's done. This is not a productivity system with color-coded projects and a weekly review you'll abandon in a couple of weeks. CUE is built around how ADHD brains move through a day, which is not in straight lines and not on anyone else's schedule. A morning routine gets built the same way a real morning happens, one visible step at a time, not as a checklist you're supposed to finish before you're allowed to feel okay about yourself. Miss a day, and CUE doesn't lecture you about it. It just shows you tomorrow's step. You don't need a diagnosis to use it. A student who reliably forgets what time her lab starts, a father running two kids and a shift schedule, a person who has lost the same set of keys four times this month, all end up using CUE the same way, which is to say they stop thinking about the system and just look at the widget. Reminders are gentle by design, because a phone that buzzes at you eleven times a day trains you to ignore it, and an ignored reminder is worse than no reminder at all. CUE asks once, clearly, at the moment that matters, and gets out of your way. Add the widget. Build one routine. Check it when you need to focus, and forget about it the rest of the time, which is the whole point. That's the pitch. The rest is just the part where you find out it works.
