Some days, starting is the hardest part. Time blindness, decision fatigue, hyperfocus you can't pull out of, a working memory that keeps dropping things, the guilt that circles back around โ you know the list. Mothy is built around how ADHD brains actually work, and around how much you've got today. Not how you're "supposed" to work. No pressure. No guilt when you miss a day. No wall of tasks staring back at you. Just a calmer way through your day. โข USER TESTIMONIALS "Finally, an app that actually gets my ADHD brain" "if you have ADHD, this one genuinely feels different" "a calm, supportive ADHD companion" "helps organize scattered thoughts with the Brain Dump feature, and stays supportive without guilt on off days." โข WHEN STARTING FEELS IMPOSSIBLE That frozen moment where you know what to do but can't begin. Tap "I'm stuck," and Mothy breaks the task into steps small enough to actually take โ shown one at a time, never more than a few. One small thing. Then the next. That's the whole method. โข MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE TODAY Some days you've got focus for hours. Some days, five minutes. Mothy asks how your energy is and quietly adjusts โ fewer tasks, shorter sessions, a gentler pace โ so you're not fighting yourself before you've even started. โข NOTHING TO SET UP You don't need to arrive with a plan. Building the plan is often the part your brain can't do. Open Mothy, empty your head into it โ messy and half-formed is fine โ and it sorts what you typed into what to do now, what can wait, and what you can let go of. Letting go is allowed. โข IT KNOWS WHEN TO STOP YOU Hyperfocus isn't always a gift. When you've been locked in too long, Mothy gently steps in โ a quiet nudge to eat, move, or rest โ so a good focus stretch doesn't quietly become a burnout day. โข SMALL WINS YOU CAN FEEL Finishing a task gives you XP, levels, and a streak โ because your brain runs on reward, and you deserve to feel the progress you're already making. Miss a day and nothing punishes you; the streak just rests until you're back. Momentum, never a stick. โข TASKS THAT FIND THEIR ORDER Not sure what to touch first? Mothy keeps the most useful task within reach, so you spend less energy deciding and more actually doing. โข BUILT AROUND YOUR ATTENTION A short screening based on the WHO ASRS helps Mothy understand your attention patterns and shape itself around them โ how tasks break down, how long sessions run, even how it talks to you. No diagnosis. No labels. Just an app that fits you, instead of the other way around. โข FREE, ALWAYS - Add and manage your tasks - Brain Dump โ capture anything, anytime - Focus timer with a daily energy check-in - XP, levels, and streaks โ gentle, never punishing - Built-in ADHD self-screening โข MOTHY PRO โ 7 days free - "I'm stuck" โ AI breaks any task into small steps, one at a time - Brain Dump that sorts your thoughts into now, later, and let-go - Adaptive Pomodoro that adjusts to your energy - Hyperfocus Guard to protect your downtime - Tasks that order themselves by what matters most - Advanced AI focus modes - Weekly reset and end-of-day wind-down - Unlimited tasks Try Pro free for 7 days. Cancel anytime before it renews and you won't be charged. After that, Mothy Pro continues at your local price, shown before you start. Mothy doesn't ask you to do more. It just makes today a little easier to get through. Find your light. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
