Stikkteller is a low-effort daily energy budget for ADHD, chronic illness, and fatigue. You start each day with 12 matches in a matchbox. When you spend energy, brushing your teeth, a meeting, a decision, tap the box, pull a match, and watch it burn. The number at the top shows how many are left. No text entry. No history. No charts. Just a clear view of what you have left today. WHO IT’S FOR β€’ People who use Spoon Theory (or similar) to pace limited energy β€’ Anyone who finds health trackers too heavy on low-energy days HOW IT WORKS β€’ 12 matches refill at midnight β€’ Tap the matchbox to spend one β€’ When the box is empty, a calm sunset closes the day Stikkteller is free to use. Optional Stikkteller Lifetime (one-time) or Stikkteller Monthly (auto-renewable) remove the gentle reminder and support development. Nothing is locked if you don’t pay.
