Ontime vs DayRoot

If you have ADHD or time blindness, you know the feeling. You had plenty of time. Then somehow you're late again, apologizing, watching someone's face fall. It's not that you don't care — your brain just doesn't track time the way clocks do. Ontime is the external clock your brain is missing. Tell it when you need to be out the door and what your routine looks like. It does the backward math and tells you the exact minute to start — no guessing, no "one more minute." HOW IT WORKS • Backward planning: enter your deadline; Ontime stacks your routine steps and finds your true start time • Start-now alarm: one loud, unmissable alert at the exact minute to begin — not a vague reminder • Step-by-step mode: while you get ready, see what to do now and whether you're ahead or behind • Built-in buffer: pads for the transitions your brain skips MADE FOR ADHD BRAINS • Live Activity: the countdown lives on your Lock Screen, always in sight • Apple Watch: glanceable time pressure without picking up your phone • Widgets: "start in 23 min" right on your Home Screen • Insights: see which routines run over and which weekdays need more buffer • No streaks, no guilt. Just out the door on time. ONTIME PRO Ontime requires an Ontime Pro subscription — monthly or annual, auto-renewing. The annual plan starts with a free trial: nothing is charged until it ends, and you can cancel anytime in Settings. Prices are shown in the app before you subscribe.

Good days grow from good roots. DayRoot plans your day backward from the moment you need to arrive. Tell it where you're headed and when — it watches live traffic, reads your calendar, and taps you at three calm moments: GET READY — a gentle heads-up while there's still time LEAVE — one clear moment to go, computed from live traffic ARRIVE — on time. Calm. Rooted. WHY DAYROOT IS DIFFERENT • It learns how you actually run. Tend to run late at one place? DayRoot quietly pads your buffer there — and trims it back when you're early. • A real alarm, not just a ping. If your day starts with a drive, DayRoot can wake you at your get-ready time — and if traffic turns bad overnight, it plans with tomorrow morning's traffic, not tonight's. • Your calendar, alive. Events with a place get live travel times; video calls and errands without one become simple tasks - never a fake "leave at". • One root line for the whole day. Trips and tasks grow on a single calm timeline. Finish something and it grows a leaf. CALM BY DESIGN • No account. No ads. No analytics trackers. • Your day stays on your device. • Location only while you use the app — your movements are never tracked. • Full policy: dayroot.app/privacy - Battery-friendly by design. No background GPS, no constant polling - reminders are scheduled with the system, so DayRoot sips power even with nudges on all day. FREE FOREVER The core magic is free, always: your place, exactly when to leave, adaptive learning, and a streak that grows with your on-time days. DAYROOT PRO Every place you care about, full calendar autopilot, tasks and daily routines — $3.99/month or $29.99/year. Good days grow from good roots. Plant one.
