"Just 5 minutes" turns into 2 hours. Sound familiar? That's time blindness. It's common with ADHD, and endless feeds make it worse: there's no clock inside a feed. Ember brings the clock back. While you're in the apps you choose, you get a quiet time check every 15 minutes: "30 min in TikTok today." No blocks, no lectures. Just the time, so you can decide. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps where time disappears: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, anything. 2. Choose how often Ember checks in: every 5, 10, 15, 20 or 30 minutes. 3. Get a gentle time check while you scroll. Tap "5 more min" or "I'm done" right from the notification. WHAT YOU GET - Gentle time checks instead of hard blocks - "5 more min" check-ins: set your own wrap-up time without leaving the app - Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets: today's time at a glance - Evening time receipt: your day in hours, TV episodes and walks - An optional daily goal per app, with a streak for the days you stay in it - Daily and weekly usage charts BUILT FOR ADHD BRAINS No willpower tests, no guilt, no long setup. Ember is a reminder, not a punishment, so it's easy to keep using. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Ember is built on Apple's Screen Time framework. Your usage data stays on your iPhone. We never see it, store it or sell it. No ads. FREE AND PRO Free: 2 apps, a time check every 15 minutes, check-ins, widgets and the evening receipt. Ember Pro: unlimited apps, your own interval (5 to 30 minutes), weekly insights and iCloud sync. Ember Pro is an auto-renewable subscription with a free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Ember is a time awareness tool. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose or treat ADHD.
