About

Nuky

Read full description

Nuky is a focus, routine, and organization app made for the ADHD brain — by someone who has ADHD too. If planning the whole week paralyzes you, if you forget tasks, lose track of time, and beat yourself up all day without getting anywhere, Nuky was made for you. No giant lists, no pressure: Nuky shows only the NEXT STEP, one thing at a time, at your own pace. HOW NUKY HELPS • Next action — the app picks ONE task for you to start, without the paralysis of a full list • Break it down — big tasks become small, doable steps (with AI help) • Guided focus — a Pomodoro-style focus timer, with Nuky by your side • Routines and reminders — organize your day with reminders that actually work • Quick capture — get ideas out of your head by text, voice, or photo before you forget • Mood and energy check-in — the app adapts to how you feel today • No guilt — a light, warm tone, never nagging WHO IT'S FOR Adults with ADHD, attention deficit, executive dysfunction, or anyone neurodivergent who's tired of productivity apps built for "neurotypical brains." It also helps with procrastination, trouble focusing, and personal organization. WHY NUKY IS DIFFERENT • Reliable notifications — the number one pain for anyone who relies on a routine app • Light and welcoming: a companion, not another source of guilt • Built by someone who lives with ADHD, not just someone who read about it NUKY PRO Unlimited tasks, routines, and captures, high-volume AI, weekly insights into your week, and exclusive themes. Monthly or yearly subscription, cancel anytime. PRIVACY Your data is yours. We take privacy seriously. Nuky is an organization and focus tool — it is not a medical app and does not replace diagnosis or professional care. For ages 18+. Start with the next step.
