Flowti vs Beacon

Flowti: A gentler way to focus, designed for ADHD minds. Tired of timers that feel like a judge? Flowti is a judgment-free focus companion built for neurodivergent brains and anyone who struggles with attention. Instead of just counting down seconds, it shows time flowing as a calming visual arc: making abstract time feel tangible, reducing anxiety, and helping you stay on track. Why Flowti works for ADHD: • Visual Time Arc: Watch time progress as a soft animated ring, not just stressful numbers. ADHD brains process visuals better, making it easier to sense how much time remains without constantly checking. • Gentle Distraction Tracking: Mind wandered? Tap the distraction button anytime. Flowti logs it with kind feedback ("That's okay, let's keep going"): zero guilt, just gentle awareness. No shaming, no productivity scoring. • Structured Breaks That Actually Reset You: After each focus session, get specific rest suggestions instead of mindless phone-scrolling. Choose quick 5-minute sprints, classic Pomodoro (25/5), or custom durations that match your rhythm. • "Start with 5 Minutes" Button: Overcoming activation energy is hard. One tap starts a 5-minute session: the lowest possible barrier to begin, perfect for ADHD brains that struggle with task initiation. • Home Screen Widget: See today's pomodoros and streak at a glance, tap to instantly start focusing. • Focus Sounds: Rain, ocean waves, and brown noise built in — settle into deep focus without reaching for another app. • Mood, Notes & Achievements: After each session, mark how you felt with a simple emoji and jot down a quick note. Earn gentle achievements as your focus habit grows. Look back later to see what you were working on and when you feel most focused. • Focus History & Insights: See your patterns: when you focus best, common distraction triggers, your streak of consistent days. Data for self-understanding, not self-criticism. • ADHD-Friendly Design: Low-saturation calming colors, optional reduced animations, 3-second countdown, subtle haptics, dark mode, zero flashing elements.

Your to-do list keeps growing, time keeps slipping, and starting feels impossible. Beacon is the calm, ADHD-friendly way to finally get things done, one gentle step at a time. Beacon is a reminders app built for the way real brains actually work, especially brains that get overwhelmed by long lists, lose track of time, or freeze at the thought of beginning. Think of it as a calm external brain: it remembers, times, and shrinks your tasks, so you do not have to hold it all in your head. WHY BEACON FEELS DIFFERENT One thing at a time. Beacon shows your next action, not your entire backlog. Less overwhelm, more starting. Time you can actually see. Every task has a calm countdown, so "later" stops turning into "too late." No red alarms, no panic. Kind on the hard days. Miss something? There is no shaming OVERDUE, no broken streak, no guilt. Beacon reframes gently and celebrates every win, the small ones too. Shrink the first step. Any task can collapse into a two-minute starting move, so the hardest part, beginning, gets easier. Park it, guilt-free. Not ready today? Set a task aside in the Parking Lot and Beacon brings it back softly when the time is right. Nothing gets lost. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY USE Beacon sits on top of Apple Reminders and Calendar, so you keep everything you already rely on. Say a reminder to Siri and it shows up in Beacon, sorted and doable. Check it off in Beacon and it syncs right back. No migration, no starting over. WHAT YOU GET Smart capture: brain-dump a messy thought and Beacon finds the task and the time for you. Focus timer and body-double sessions to help you start and keep going. Energy tags to match tasks to how you actually feel right now. Gentle, well-timed nudges instead of a wall of notifications. Home Screen widgets, Lock Screen Live Activities, and an Apple Watch app, so your next step is always a glance away. Private by design: no account, no tracking, no cloud sync. The only thing Beacon ever sends is an anonymous crash report. WHO IT IS FOR Beacon was made for people with ADHD, and that turns out to be a lot of us: anyone who has felt buried by their own list, lost time without meaning to, or been too hard on themselves for it.
