About this app

Stop staring at your to-do list. Nudge is an ADHD planner that tells you exactly what to do right now.

THE PROBLEM
You have a task list. You also have decision paralysis, time blindness, and about seventeen browser tabs open. Your brain doesn't work the way a typical to-do app or task manager assumes. You need something built for how ADHD actually works.

WHAT NUDGE DOES

🧠 AI Task Suggestions — Tell Nudge your energy level and it picks the one task to focus on right now. No scrolling, no deciding. Powered by Claude AI.

🗣️ Brain Dump — Overwhelmed? Speak or type everything rattling around your head and Nudge organises it into real tasks with time estimates.

✂️ Task Breakdown — Turn vague goals into 5 concrete steps you can start. "Clean the kitchen" becomes a list you can action immediately — no more task paralysis.

⏱️ Focus Timer — Distraction-free, Pomodoro-style focus sessions with ambient sounds. Transition warnings at 5 and 1 minute so time blindness never blindsides you. Capture intrusive thoughts mid-session without losing flow.

🔁 Habit Tracker — Daily or weekly recurring tasks (medication, walks, routines) that complete and reset automatically. Miss a day? It never piles up.

👥 Body Doubling — Join virtual co-working rooms and work silently alongside others. No video, no talking, no pressure — just the feeling of not being alone. One of the most effective ADHD tools, built right in.

🔥 Streaks & Shields — Build momentum. Earn shields that forgive one missed day a week, so a hard day doesn't erase your progress.

📊 Weekly Summary — See your focus patterns, habit completion, distraction insights, and whether your time estimates are improving.

🔥 One Thing — Pick your single priority each morning to cut through decision paralysis before the day even starts.

📱 Android Widget — See today's tasks on your home screen without opening the app.

📲 Smart Notifications — Daily reminders at your chosen time, per-task and per-habit reminders, and a Sunday weekly-summary prompt.

WHO IT'S FOR
Built for ADHD adults juggling work, study, and life — and anyone who struggles with executive function, focus, motivation, or just getting started. If every other to-do list app has failed you, Nudge works differently.

CRISIS SUPPORT
If you're struggling, Nudge detects crisis language and connects you to support resources immediately. This is a productivity tool, not a substitute for professional help — but we've got your back.

FREE FOREVER
Focus timer, habit tracker, streaks & shields, body doubling, weekly summary, widget, notifications and voice input — no time limit, no catch.

PRO — AI FEATURES
Brain Dump organisation, AI task suggestions, and task breakdown are Pro. Upgrade whenever you like — the free version is genuinely useful on its own.

HOW THIS STARTED
Nudge started with one person — my mate Ben. He has ADHD, works full time, was studying, had a new baby, and was drowning. Not because he wasn't trying — he just couldn't decide what to do first, and every existing app gave him another list to stare at.

I spent months asking what it actually felt like to be stuck: the paralysis, the shame spiral, how just having someone nearby made it easier to start. I built around all of it, one feature at a time. Ben still uses it every day — but somewhere along the way it stopped being just for him.

REAL TALK
This isn't magic and it won't cure ADHD. But it works with how your brain actually functions — by removing decisions, adding structure, and celebrating small wins.

You've got this.
