Pour turns your routines into something you can press play on. Pick a routine, tap it, and the whole screen fills with liquid — water, honey, sand, or mercury — that drains as each step elapses. Full means the step just started; empty means it's done. Time you can see, built for time blindness. Pour is designed for ADHD brains. Starting is the hard part, so Pour keeps it to two taps: open the app, tap a routine, and you're pouring. No setup screens in the way, no confirmations, no judgment when plans change. PRESS PLAY ON A ROUTINE • Build routines from simple steps, each with its own duration • Four templates ready on first launch: Morning, Get Out the Door, Reset Sprint, and Wind-down • Reorder, reschedule, and reshape them any time — everything autosaves TIME YOU CAN SEE • A liquid timer fills the screen and drains in real time • Huge, steady numerals that never jump around • Gentle chimes and soft haptics mark each step change • Pause, skip, or add two minutes — skipping is always allowed KEEPS POURING WHEN YOU LOOK AWAY • Live Activity and Dynamic Island show the current step on your Lock Screen • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets start a routine in one tap • Optional scheduled invitations — we'll only nudge when you ask us to NO STREAKS, NO SHAME • History shows the times you showed up — never the days in between • Ending early still counts; Pour says so • No chains, no scores, no guilt — ever PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Everything stays on your phone • No account, no tracking, no analytics POUR PRO (optional) • Unlimited routines and all four materials • Chime packs, History insights, and alternate app icons • Monthly, yearly (with a 14-day free trial), or a one-time lifetime purchase — Family Sharing included on lifetime Pour is a visual timer and routine player. It makes time visible and routines easier to start — nothing more, nothing less.

About

Activity Scheduler

Read full description

Activity Scheduler: FocusFlow is a visual activity scheduler and ADHD planner for days when a long to-do list only adds pressure. Empty your head first, then turn the noise into a day you can actually start, with a Pomodoro timer for the task in front of you. Give every task a start time and a duration. The activity scheduler lays your day out on a timeline, reminds you before each task begins and warns you before the day overflows. When it is time to work, the Pomodoro timer starts from the task you picked, so you do not have to decide again. WHAT THE ACTIVITY SCHEDULER DOES • Brain dump first, sort later: the ADHD planner keeps one clear next step • Visual time blocks instead of an endless list • Reminders before each task starts • Import Apple Reminders and calendar events • Recurring tasks for daily, weekday and weekly routines • Pomodoro timer with 25/5 sessions, a 15-minute soft start and Live Activity on the Lock Screen • Focus minutes, completed tasks, daily load and streaks • Home Screen widget and Siri shortcuts A GENTLER WAY TO KEEP GOING A small sprout grows with every focus session, and a gentle streak counts the days you showed up. At the end of the day, you decide what moves to tomorrow, without guilt. That is how an ADHD planner should feel. FocusFlow Pro adds unlimited tasks per day, AI planning that builds and replans your day, Deep Work and Study presets for the focus timer, and deeper reviews. Your plan stays on your device, with optional iCloud backup and no account. Less pressure than a to-do list, more structure than a blank page: an activity scheduler you will actually open tomorrow. Activity Scheduler: FocusFlow is a productivity tool, not a medical or diagnostic app. Privacy Policy: https://solvalex.com/en/legal/apps/privacy-policy Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
