Flow Timer โ€” Focus Built for ADHD Brains Your brain doesn't work linearly. Your timer shouldn't either. Flow Timer is designed around how you actually think โ€” flexible, visual, and rewarding โ€” so you can start, switch, and finish without the friction. Two Timers, Zero Friction Run a focus timer up front and a background timer behind it. Cooking while studying? Pomodoro plus a load of laundry? Track both without losing momentum. Custom presets put your go-to intervals one tap away. Tasks That Actually Get Done Plan your day, then launch timers straight from any task. No more "I'll get to it in a minute" โ€” tap the task, start the timer, and you're already in motion. Habit Tracking Without the Guilt "Days Since" and "Days Until" counters keep recurring tasks visible โ€” from haircuts to doctor visits โ€” without nagging notifications. Glanceable, calm, and honest. Finish It, Celebrate It Every completed timer triggers a confetti burst. Because momentum matters, and small wins deserve recognition. Make It Yours Pick your palette, set your emoji, choose your alarm tone. Flow Timer adapts to your vibe, not the other way around. Stop fighting your focus. Start flowing.
