Flowo

Flowo is a gentle, focused task manager designed for ADHD brains. Most to-do apps overwhelm you with endless lists and guilt-inducing streaks. Flowo takes a different approach: PLAN A SMALL DAY Pick just a handful of tasks for today — a daily limit you control — so you're never staring at an impossible list. FOCUS SESSIONS Start a timed focus session (5 to 45 minutes) with optional ambient soundscapes like rain, cafe, and forest sounds to help you settle in. BRAIN DUMP Got a stray thought mid-task? Capture it instantly without breaking focus, then turn it into a task later when you're ready. WINS, NOT STREAKS See your weekly progress — tasks completed, focus time, your best day — without judgment. Every session counts, even the short ones. ENERGY-AWARE SUGGESTIONS (Premium) Flowo learns your energy patterns and suggests tasks that match how you're feeling right now. Flowo is built by and for people who think differently. No streak-shaming, no overwhelming dashboards — just a calm space to plan your day and get things done. Subscription info: Flowo Premium is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
