ADHD Timer vs Time Blind Timer

You don't have a motivation problem. You have a time problem — you genuinely can't feel it passing, so a "quick" task eats the afternoon and you never see it coming. This app works on that from both ends: making time visible while it passes, and showing you how badly you misjudge it. WATCH TIME PASS The whole screen is the timer. It shifts from calm green to amber to urgent red as your deadline approaches, so you always know where you stand without reading a number. Vibration pulses intensify in the final stretch. No tiny digits, no abstract progress ring — just color you can read from across the room. FIND OUT HOW LONG THINGS REALLY TAKE Switch to Task mode, name what you're doing, and guess the time. When your estimate runs out the timer doesn't quietly stop — it asks whether you actually finished. If you didn't, it keeps counting, and the real duration is what gets recorded. Not the one you hoped for. YOUR PLANNING MULTIPLIER After five tracked tasks, a single number tells you how far off your estimates are. 1.7x means a task you think is 30 minutes usually runs 52. It's broken down task by task, so you learn which work always overruns and which you actually judge well. KNOW BEFORE YOU START Set 25 minutes on something you've done before and the app tells you what it will really take. Plan against your own history instead of your optimism. SCHEDULE IT, AND ACTUALLY ARRIVE Put a task on a day and time with your own estimate, and the app reminds you 25 minutes before, 5 minutes before, and when it's time to start. The reminders don't just say "soon" — they tell you what that task really runs to, so "in 25 minutes" becomes an amount of time you can feel. Tap one and the timer is set up and waiting. Miss one and nothing nags you.

A timer that talks you through time. Built for the brains that lose track of it. For brains that lose time, a countdown that speaks so you do not have to look. Most timers are silent rectangles. For an ADHD brain that experiences time-blindness, that is the same as not having a timer at all. Time Blind Timer talks to you. It speaks check-ins at the pace you choose, in your own iPhone voice, while the screen stays dark and the world keeps going. Why people stay: - Audio first. Every cue is spoken aloud, not a tiny number on a screen you have to unlock. - Locked screen friendly. Confirmed background-audio behavior. Designed to work while you are doing literally anything else. - Your voice. Pick any iOS voice (Samantha, Daniel, Karen, Moira, and the high-quality Enhanced voices) with rate and pitch tuned per persona. - Your cadence. Adjustable announcement frequency from every 30 seconds to every 15 minutes, plus a Natural countdown that mirrors how humans warn each other (10m, 5m, 2m, 1m, 30s, 10s). - Elapsed-time mode. Optional toggle to announce 'You are 18 minutes in, 7 left' instead of only 'remaining'. The time-blindness receptor responds better to elapsed than to remaining alone. - Routines, not just timers. Start a morning anchor, a bedtime wind-down, a Pomodoro block, a study session, a leave-the-house countdown, or build your own. Each step has its own spoken cue. - No shame. No streaks. No 'you failed' copy. No gamification guilt. Just a calm narrator that keeps you company. - Real-time interruption handling. The clock keeps running through Siri, phone calls, YouTube. The next scheduled cue plays fresh, never an awkward stale announcement. - Local first. No account. No cloud sync. No tracking. No analytics. Your timer state lives on your phone only. Built for ADHD by people who have it, with line-editing input from an ADHD-PCC therapist. Made by Nice Notions LLC.
