Start talking. We'll figure it out after. Most planners ask you to organise your thoughts before you can write them down. That's the exact step an ADHD brain finds hardest. My ADHD Dump removes it β€” you just talk, and the app does the sorting. HOW IT WORKS Tap SPEAK and say whatever's in your head. Groceries, a half-formed idea, the thing you keep forgetting to tell Maya, how the day actually went. Ramble. Repeat yourself. Trail off. When you stop, your dump is turned into: β€’ Tasks and events, with dates picked out of what you said β€’ People, places and ideas, linked into a mind map that grows on its own β€’ A reading of how the day felt, in your own words Nothing to file. Nothing to tag. A CALENDAR THAT REMEMBERS FEELINGS, NOT JUST APPOINTMENTS Every day gets a colour from what you dumped. Open a month and see the shape of it β€” the steady stretches, the frayed weeks, the quiet ones. Tap any day for what you said and what was on. A Year in Pixels turns twelve months into one page. Not a score. Just the year, honestly. REMINDERS THAT ARRIVE IN YOUR TIME Set a reminder on anything with a date and it shows up when it should. BUILT TO BE FORGIVING A blank day says "nothing dumped this day", not "you broke your streak". A day with feelings and no tasks is a feelings-only day. No guilt. The streak is there if it motivates you and ignorable if it doesn't. Your dumps are yours. Delete your account and everything goes with it, from inside the app, in two taps. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Free: three voice dumps a day, forever. The mind map, the calendar, the year view and reminders all work on the free tier. My ADHD Dump Pro β€” 25 voice dumps per day.
