Built for ADHD brains: full-screen alarms that break through Silent and Focus mode. One step at a time — never an overwhelming list, just the next thing to do. No account. No ads. Your routines never leave your phone. Notifications are easy to swipe away. Foghorn isn't. Your routines start with a real alarm — the kind that gets through even when your phone is silenced — so "I didn't hear it" stops being the reason your morning fell apart. Once it's running, you get one screen and one step. Not a checklist. Not a dashboard. Just the thing in front of you right now, with a big "Done" and nothing else competing for your attention. FROM THE ALARM TO "DONE" • Alarms that break through Silent and Focus mode, powered by Apple's AlarmKit • A one-step-at-a-time routine player — no scrolling, no clutter, no overwhelm • Ready-made templates: Morning Start, Evening Shutdown, Getting to Work, Meds & Self-Care, Before You Leave • A widget that shows your next routine at a glance • Skip a step without losing your streak — Foghorn never guilts you for an off day WHAT FOGHORN DOESN'T HAVE: ACCOUNTS, ADS, SERVERS • Nothing to sign up for — no account and no email address • Your routines, steps, and history stay on your device — we run no server to leak from • Zero ads, zero trackers, zero analytics SDKs inside • One complete routine with every core feature — alarms, player, and widget — without paying anything Foghorn doesn't track streaks to shame you. It doesn't nag. It just makes sure the thing you meant to do actually reaches you — and makes doing it feel like less of a mountain.
