About

Presently

Features
Read full description

Presently is a focus timer built around body doubling โ€” the practice of working alongside another presence to stay grounded and on task. It's designed for people with ADHD, but works for anyone who struggles to start or sustain focus. Here's how it works: set a short intention for what you want to focus on, choose a duration, pick an ambient soundscape, and begin. The app creates a sense of shared space โ€” like working in a coffee shop, library, or alongside a quiet companion. Soundscapes include Coffee Shop, Acoustic Cafรฉ, Rain, Library, Office, and Keyboard โ€” each designed to provide just enough background presence without distraction. No streaks. No guilt. No gamification. Just a calm space to begin working. Features: - Intention setting to clarify your focus before each session - Six ambient soundscapes with infinite looping - Pause and resume without losing your place - Session completion summary - Fully localized in 13 languages - Works on iPhone and iPad
