ADHD To vs Dopamine

Volcanotes turns your to-do list into a volcano. Tasks heat up as deadlines approach, changing colour and growing on screen, so the thing that needs you most is always the thing you notice first. Built for people with ADHD and anyone who finds traditional to-do lists quietly useless. There's nothing to configure and no system to maintain. You add tasks; the heat tells you what matters right now. THE HEATING SYSTEM Every task starts cool and heats up as its deadline approaches: On Track, then Due Soon (amber), then Heating Up (red), then Right Now, when it starts to jiggle for attention. Your eye goes to the hottest thing on screen, so prioritisation happens by itself instead of costing you mental effort. Simple gestures handle everything: swipe right to complete, swipe left to cool a task down with an extra day, long-press for details. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN The Hot Tasks widget puts your hottest tasks on your Home Screen. When out of sight means out of mind, this keeps them in sight. KEY FEATURES Automatic prioritisation from deadlines and estimated durations Time-crunch warnings when a task needs more time than you have left Suggested time estimates, read from how you describe each task A 30-day archive of everything you've completed Lock Screen counter and Quick Add widgets Available in 8 languages BUILT FOR FOCUS CHALLENGES Volcanotes works like an external executive function: urgency you can see, instead of urgency you have to remember. It's also deliberately kind and doesn't judge you. LAVA MODE (PREMIUM) Up to 200 tasks Recurring tasks Custom heating rules let you tune when things heat up Default task settings Name your volcano. Feed it tasks. Handle whatever's about to erupt first.

Dopamine helps you do one small useful thing when your brain feels loud, stuck, bored, tired, or all over the place. You open the app, answer three quick questions, and Dopamine gives you one next move. No huge task list. No complicated system. No shame. No judgement. Just one thing to try next. Dopamine checks: How loud is your mind? How much energy do you have? How hard does starting feel? Then it picks a task style that fits your state. You might get a tiny first step, a timer, a checklist, a reset card, a choice, or a simple action to help you get moving. The guidance is shaped around real ADHD feedback, real ADHD friction, and the kind of support ADHD people actually ask for when they are trying to get back on track. There is also a playful dopamine boost built in. Sometimes, after a task, you can unlock a surprise mini reward, fidget toy, sound, game, or little moment of fun. It adds novelty and momentum without turning the app into another thing to manage. The loop is simple: Check in Get one next move Do the task Get a little momentum Go back home and reassess Dopamine is built for ADHD brains that need things to feel smaller, clearer, kinder, and more interesting. Features include: Simple ADHD friendly check ins One recommended task at a time Tiny actions for low energy days Timers and checklists when structure helps Reset cards for overwhelm Playful surprise rewards No shame or judgement A clear loop that brings you back home No account required No ads No tracking Dopamine is not here to judge how you work. It is here to use feedback, novelty, and small steps to help you start, reset, and get back on track.
