Thrive vs Dopodoro

IS YOUR CALENDAR LYING TO YOU? Traditional planners are static. You make a plan at 8:00 AM, life happens, and by noon your schedule is broken. Seeing a list of overdue tasks doesn't motivate you—it creates schedule shame. Meet Thrive, the first "Live Schedule" that breathes with your day. Thrive is not just a calendar; it is a reality engine. It combines the structure of a calendar with the flexibility of a to-do list, ensuring your plan always matches the time you actually have. WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT • The "Live" Difference (vs. Static Planners) Legacy apps freeze your tasks in place. Thrive keeps them fluid. Meeting ran late? Thrive automatically shifts your flexible tasks forward. No manual dragging required. • Reality Checks Thrive alerts you if you’ve planned 25 hours of work in a 24-hour day. We act as a compassionate guardrail against burnout. CRUSH TIME BLINDNESS Designed for neurodivergent minds (ADHD) and high performers who lose track of time. • Visual Time Blocking: See your day as a timeline, not a list of doom. • The "Slider" Log: Forgot to start a timer? Just slide to log how much time you actually spent. It’s friction-free progress tracking. • Free Time Visibility: We highlight the gaps in your day so you can rest without guilt. INVEST YOUR TIME, DON'T JUST SPEND IT Turn your schedule into a strategy. • Areas of Life: Don't just track "work." Track "Health," "Startup," or "Family." • Goal Alignment: Link daily tasks (e.g., "Study Math") to big goals (e.g., "Ace Finals"). • Brutal Truth Stats: See exactly where your time went—and where it didn't. KEY FEATURES • Dynamic Timeline: Mix fixed events and flexible tasks. • Focus Timer: Built-in Pomodoro style timer for deep work. • Capacity Planning: Warning system for over-planning. • Progress Logging: Track investment, not just completion. Don't let a rigid plan break your day. Download Thrive and start planning for reality.

A focus timer built for ADHD brains: the one that actually gets you started. The hardest part isn't focusing. It's starting. Dopodoro is built around that: pick one thing, take five minutes, and never get punished for an off day. The AI runs entirely on your phone, and your data is never sent to us. No Apple Intelligence on your device? Every helper still works, with simple built-in versions. GET STARTED (the hard part, solved) - Pick one for me: tell it your energy; the AI chooses one task, with a reason. No more staring at a list. - Break it down: turn an overwhelming task into small, startable steps. - Just 5 minutes: when 25 feels impossible, five is a doorway. One tap and you're in. - Brain dump: type or speak a mess of thoughts; get back a clean task list. - Park a thought: capture a stray idea mid-session without breaking focus. A CALM, CAPABLE TIMER Five focus presets, from a classic 25 to a 90-minute deep-work block (Classic, Long Focus, DeskTime, Sprint, Ultradian). A timer you don't have to babysit: close the app, restart your phone, forget it exists. It keeps perfect time anyway, and it rings through Silent and Focus modes. NOW ON MAC Dopodoro is a native Mac app too, with a menu bar timer, keyboard shortcuts and a task inspector. Your tasks, history and settings sync over iCloud, so a plan you make on your phone is waiting at your desk. Turn on "Mirror the session across devices" in Settings to see a running session on your other devices and take it over. NOW ON IPAD Dopodoro runs full size, in any orientation, with a sidebar instead of the tab bar. Keyboard shortcuts and pointer support come with it. ON APPLE WATCH Your session at a glance: the ring, time remaining, when it ends, and how many focuses you've done today. Start and pause from your wrist. MAKE IT YOURS Light, dark, or system, plus ten colour themes. All ten are free. Your categories carry their own colour everywhere, from today's timeline to your stats. SOUNDSCAPES A real focus environment: brown, pink, and white noise, rain, ocean, café, and more, plus binaural and isochronic tones. Listen with or without a timer, set a sleep timer, or mix under your own audio. (Some people find these help concentration.) MOMENTUM YOU CAN SEE Every finished session ends with a spark and joins your focus history: a clear daily chart, an hour-by-weekday heatmap that shows when you focus best, and streaks counted as active days, so a gap never breaks anything. Your full history and export are free. No leaderboards, no guilt for empty days. EVERYWHERE IN THE SYSTEM On iPhone: a Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, Home Screen widgets to start, pause, skip, and extend, Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, Control Center, and an optional Focus mode + app blocking to protect your sessions. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts. No servers of ours. No ads. No third-party tracking. The AI runs on your device with Apple Intelligence; your data is never sent to us or any third party. If you use iCloud, it syncs privately across your own Apple devices. DOPODORO+ (optional) Everything you need is free: the whole timer, unlimited tasks and projects, your full focus history and export, all ten themes, the everyday AI helpers, and a starter soundscape set. Plus adds depth for people who want to support a solo developer: the full 40-sound library and custom soundscape generator, your own saved blends and focus profiles, a custom colour of your own and themes that follow the season, the advanced AI helpers (weekly review, energy prediction, and more), your calendar on your timeline with two-way sync, and custom views. $4.99/month or $29.99/year (first month free), or $69.99 once for lifetime. One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac. Built by one indie developer. No VC, no investors, no growth team. If it helps you start, leave a review. That's how indie apps survive.
