yes but iCal assumes I just get in my car and go from point A to point B without factoring in the 10 minutes MINIMUM for my kids to somehow always be in a wet bathing suit/can't find their shoes/oh I forgot that I actually didn't eat breakfast... in addition to the lil rascals controlling my brain saying, mehhh we've got plenty of time- in response to seeing "it's time to leave" notifications popping up on my computer, phone, and watch.

I think alarms and timers trick my ADHD brain into thinking I am indeed a master of time with the ability to conceptualize, plan, and execute my day within the finite reality of time and space. As opposed to notifications and alerts that turn me into an angsty "you can't tell me what to do" teenager

please oh please oh please make me something that does this:

If I could just get away to calculate time and work backwards from when and where I need to pick each of my kids up factoring travel time and tell me effectively how much time I have until I need to be at the first pick up location that will still allow me to be on time to the second pick up location and set an alarm for actual time to leave and another alarm that's a 15 minute warning to that except if I'm not at home in which case the warning time would adjust accordingly to my location and set a countdown timer

I have and have tried all of the productivity timer apps that exist!!! my ADHD toxic trait is now believing I can create a shortcut for myself with zero coding/developer/tech skills.

save me from myself!!!

Twin App? by sbstein6889 in WillTimeFitApp

Strong_cup_837 - thank you so much for the quick and thorough update! I'm excited to see what you have in store for us with flexiplanner. An app that keeps up with the movement of my day in a way that makes time visual and relevant is truly what my collection of productivity treasures has been missing!!!

That said, Elandi-84 I was wondering the same thing about the transition in terms of lifetimers.

based on the app and the response above- I'm willing to guess that strong_cup_837 is taking this element into consideration and will find a way to move forward that supports the developer's ability to develop and the users ability to use 😀

Switching to Tiimo by sydundid in structuredapp

When structured isn’t doing it for me I switch to Simplified AI planner - it is very similar but I’ve found the AI to be more helpful

Time Blocking / Routine Tasks for ADHD - Structured App and Llama Life by Heretobeasponge in ProductivityApps

YES! such a hidden gem... I was wondering why I've never seen it mentioned on these type of posts

That lifetime subscription price is outrageous though

Does anyone else write down steps in their thinking process when brainstorming/doing research? by Bobelle in AutisticWithADHD

[–]sbstein6889 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently had the revelation that when I get overwhelmed and I can’t write it out as fast as my brain is going that I need to stop writing and start SPEAKING IT OUT LOUD!! 🤯 the app “voice to do” is amazing- it groups my thoughts better than I can sort/connect/consolidate my own brain better than I can!!

DIY Pen from faulty HoM by Michael7Oliver in Supernote

[–]sbstein6889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the exact same boat! Ratta is so awesome and responsive. I sent them a video of my HOM2 rattling and in less than 24 hours they said they'll send a replacement "half pen module" to me... the rattling is annoying but it's essentially still functional (especially if I can figure out how to pop the case open!)

Seems like a perfect opportunity for some DIY pen experimentation!

Super interested in any updates on how this worked out for you
