Read full descriptionHide full description
iWorkUntil turns the time you have left into something you can actually see โ every minute is a visible block, the grid fills as time passes, and one glance tells you where you stand in the day, the session, or the workday. Built for anyone who'd rather see time than read it. Especially good for ADHD focus sessions, deep-work blocks, study time, and any moment where "how long left?" is the question that matters. No accounts. No ads. No notifications. No streaks to break. No AI nagging. Just time, made visible. WHAT IT DOES โข Visual countdown โ your time as a grid of blocks that fills as it passes โข Pick a duration (e.g. 25 minutes) or a range (e.g. 9 to 5) โข Each block represents a slice of your time โ at a glance, you know where you are โข Choose a theme that fits your screen โข Lives in the corner โ never in the way WHO IT'S FOR โข Anyone who loses track of time when they're focused โข Visual thinkers who do better with shapes than with numbers โข Pomodoro and deep-work sessions that need a clear stop signal โข Workdays, homework, study breaks, screen-time wind-down โข Cooking, exercise, meetings, presentations โ anything time-boxed WHAT IT DOESN'T DO โข No notifications. No dings. No dopamine traps. โข No accounts, no logins, no data collection. โข No ads, no subscriptions, no upsells. โข No AI, no streaks, no guilt. A visual countdown that shows you time, instead of telling you about it. Available in 11 languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Polish, Hungarian, Russian, Danish, Swedish, Slovenian.

ADHD is easier with a Buddy. Most to-do apps assume you'll follow through on your own. Steady doesn't. It pairs you with one person you trust โ a partner, a roommate, a parent, a friend โ and gives both of you a role to play. Steady works with two: the Explorer and the Anchor. Each plays a different part. The Explorer: they're here to get things done. They can add tasks, mark progress, and ask their Anchor to take something on when they're stuck or maxed out. Their role is to stay in charge of what matters, with support close by. The Anchor: they're here to support someone they care about without taking over. They can see what's on their plate, add to it alongside them, send gentle reminders, and take something on when they ask โ or when they sense their Explorer could use a hand. Same tasks, different views โ each person sees only the actions that make sense for their role. Four moves. That's the whole app. Share: One person โ the Explorer โ keeps the list. The other โ the Anchor โ sees it too. It's a shared space. Add: Either of you adds the thing โ a task, a follow-up, or that project the Explorer has been meaning to start. Nudge: If something stalls, your Anchor can send a soft check-in โ or a "this matters" if it can't wait. It's not a lonely to-do app. Lift: If things stall, the Explorer can ask for help. Or the Anchor can step in with "I'll handle it." They're in this together. Built for how ADHD actually works. Steady is about having someone in your corner. Someone who sees what's on your plate without you having to explain it, and who can step in at the right moment without making it toxic. Just a calm, simple space between two people. Who it's for: โ You have ADHD and want gentle accountability from someone you trust โ You're the partner, parent, or friend who wants to help โ but doesn't know how โ You've tried every to-do app and none of them stuck, because the problem was never the app Download Steady. Pick your person. Get things done together. Steady is $4.99/month or $49.99/year (about 17% off), with a 2-week free trial up front. Steady's subscription is tied to your pair, not to individuals. Once one of you subscribes, the other is automatically in. Terms of Use: https://steadypair.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://steadypair.com/privacy
