Desk research from the maker's own pages. Not yet tried by us. Checked 2026-10-24.
A visual planner built by and for neurodivergent people, especially those with ADHD or autism. The day shows as a color-coded timeline with icons, timers and gentle reminders, plus a to-do list, focus timer, mood check-ins and routines. Its AI planner turns a typed or spoken brain dump into small steps with time estimates. It won an Apple App Store Award as iPhone App of the Year and works on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Android and the web.
Our take: A good fit for a teen with ADHD who wants to plan their own day; younger kids need a parent to set it up and watch the data settings.
