Planck Timer is a focused time tracker for people who want to know where their hours actually go. Clock in and out of tasks with a single tap, run multiple timers at the same time, and see honest reports across your week, month, and year. WHY PLANCK TIMER Most time trackers force you to pick one thing at a time. Real work isn't like that. You start a deep work block, then a build kicks off and you start reading docs while it runs. Planck Timer handles concurrent tasks the way your day actually works. FEATURES • Concurrent timers run as many tasks at once as you want • One tap to start, one tap to stop • Categories with custom colors so reports read at a glance • Week, month, and year views with stacked bars and per-task totals • Full history grouped by day, with quick edits and manual entry • Trim idle time on a running entry without losing the start • Private iCloud sync between iPhone, iPad, and Mac (your data, your account) • Native dark interface designed for long sessions • No accounts. No subscriptions. No ads. No analytics.

Your head, but quieter. ADHD Notes is a calmer task and follow-up app built for brains that run many threads at once. Stop holding everything in your head. Capture it, keep it in context, and let the app surface what needs you next. WHY IT IS DIFFERENT Most task apps make you file everything into projects and nested folders. For an ADHD brain, too much structure becomes friction. ADHD Notes keeps work visible on one flat board with a simple promise: get it out of your head, and let the tool carry it. CAPTURE FROM ANYWHERE Type it, paste an email, speak it, use Siri, or tap the Home Screen widget. The assistant can turn messy thoughts into clean tasks with the right dates, people, and context. ONE THING AT A TIME A focus mode with a quiet timer, gentle check-ins, and a live countdown on your Lock Screen. No noise, no nagging. IT REMEMBERS FOR YOU Recurring nudges resurface what slips. Follow-ups can move out of sight until tomorrow. A plain-language Daily Brief tells you where things stand. Reminders bring tasks back exactly when you asked. FULL CONTEXT ON EVERY TASK People, customers, meetings, notes, subtasks, links, and history live on the task card. Nothing scattered, nothing lost. RIGHT FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN Home Screen, Lock Screen, StandBy, and Apple Watch support. Ask Siri to capture a thought. Find tasks with Spotlight. MADE FOR YOUR BRAIN Flat by design, with no nesting to get lost in. Calm colors, quiet motion, lighter visual noise, and forgiving undo patterns. Deleted items wait in Trash for 30 days, so mistakes are easy to recover. Free to start. You could be carrying less in five minutes.
