About

Onsett

Onsett is a quiet, precise record of how your ADHD medication actually works. Starting or adjusting a stimulant takes weeks of trial and error. Most people try to hold it all in their head, or scribble it in Notes, and then sit in front of their prescriber with a vague "I think mornings were better." Onsett replaces that with something you actually collected. HOW IT WORKS 1. Log the dose Time and amount, two taps. Immediate release, extended release or non-stimulant. 2. Check in while it is fresh Mark where you are right now β€” not yet, ramping up, peak, fading, worn off β€” and rate your focus from 1 to 5. 3. Close the day Sleep, appetite, mood and side effects in about ten seconds. WHAT YOU SEE - A daily curve with every dose and every check-in on one timeline - How long a dose takes to kick in, and how long it lasts - Average focus at each dose level, side by side - A titration ladder: hold a level, mark it too low, works or too high, then move on - Side effects counted across days instead of guessed at BUILT FOR HOW ADHD ACTUALLY WORKS Logging takes seconds. Check-in reminders are timed to when your dose usually starts working, so you answer when it means something. No account to create, nothing to configure. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No account, no analytics, no advertising. Everything you enter is stored on your device and we cannot see it. Turn on iCloud and it syncs only to your own private iCloud account. FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT Export a clean PDF covering dose steps, daily entries, check-ins and side effects over any period. Bring it with you or send it ahead. ONSETT PRO Free: unlimited logging and the last seven days of history. Pro: full history, dose comparison in Insights, and PDF reports. 7.99 USD per month or 49.99 USD per year, with a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
