ADHD Visual Timer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Reset is the ADHD app that makes time visible and starting easier. A visual timer that draws as you go, routines that hold the order for you, and real help for the moment you can't start. YOUR ROUTINE DRAWS A SUN Every step is one loop of a thread around a sun. The loop draws itself as the step's time passes, so you see time instead of guessing it. Finish, and the drawing is whole. ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN The step you're on stays on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, with Done, Skip and Pause. Leave the app and the routine keeps going. I CAN'T START Type the task you're avoiding. Reset breaks it into one first move that takes seconds, then gives you two minutes. On iPhones with Apple Intelligence it's written on your phone, privately. A gentle way through procrastination and task paralysis. BRAIN WEATHER Say how your brain is today: charged, okay, low or empty. Reset suggests one thing that fits. On empty days the app goes quiet: three things, and that's enough. FOCUS WITH A BODY DOUBLE Pick a task and Reset keeps you company, drawing a loop every few minutes. Pomodoro cycles included. BREAKS THAT END ON TIME A dopamine menu of short breaks, with an alarm that reaches you even on Silent. NO STREAKS, EVER Every day you show up becomes a small sun on your month's page. Nothing to break, nothing to lose. ALSO INSIDE Brain dump, a time trainer for time blindness, a meds widget, Siri and Shortcuts, Control Center buttons and dark mode. RESET PRO Custom routines, full history, energy patterns, an AI coach and custom app icons. Monthly, yearly, or pay once for Lifetime. With notifications on, Reset reminds you 3 days before any renewal. Made for ADHD, AuDHD and neurodivergent brains. Reset is not a medical device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gauge at none against ADHD Visual Timer's 4. Gauge also leads on iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.0). ADHD Visual Timer's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
