Pobbin: ADHD Planner & Timer

Pobbin is a gentle ADHD planner that shows you one thing to do now and two things next. Everything else waits out of sight, so your day stops looking like a wall of tasks.

Your buddy lives in a hand-drawn paper sketchbook. Pick Capy the capybara, Okto the octopus, Otty the otter, Axo the axolotl or Rocco the raccoon, and the whole notebook changes color to match.

A daily planner app that follows your energy

• Pick your battery each morning: low, okay or full

• Pobbin suggests the tasks that fit, and low days get a short list of easy wins

• Every routine has an easy version for rough days

• A day ribbon turns your ADHD daily planner into time you can see, right up to wind-down

Start tiny

• Every task carries a first tiny step, like "find the number" or "put on your shoes"

• Tap "smaller" and the whole task shrinks to that one step

• Tap "not now" and it moves back without any fuss

• Snooze to later, tomorrow or someday. Nothing gets lost

An ADHD timer you can actually see

• A shrinking-disk visual timer app built in, with the time you'll be done

• Prefer a bar or plain numbers? Change the timer style in Settings

• "Park it" saves stray thoughts without leaving the timer

• Pobbin learns how long things really take: you guess 15, it takes 18

• Heads-up nudges 15, 5 and 1 minute before a task, with quiet hours, like a gentle ADHD reminder app

Body doubling, right inside the planner

Turn on body doubling and your buddy works next to you while you focus. With Otty, you get 25-minute rounds and a quick check-in every 5 minutes. You don't need a separate body doubling app.

Empty your head first

Type everything that's buzzing around. Pobbin sorts the mess into small tasks, each with a time guess, an energy level and a first step, and you pick today, soon or someday. It works like a brain dump app and a to-do list in one, and the sorting happens on your phone.

Routines that bend

• Morning launch, wind-down, leaving the house, doom-pile reset and more, ready to borrow and tweak

• Longer steps are drawn taller, so each routine reads like a visual schedule app

• Play a routine step by step with your buddy

• A routine app with no streaks. Days off show up as rest days

Check in with your inner weather

Sunny, foggy, stormy or somewhere between. Add your battery, a few tags and a note, or hold to record a voice note. Your month fills with weather stamps, a small mood journal app that only you see.

Rewards with zero guilt

• No streaks, ever. Missed days are rest days

• Every finished task earns coins and a step on the trail map

• Spend coins on outfits for your buddy and things for its room. Coins can't be bought

• A daily gift that never expires

• A garden that grows each time you start something, and a jar of folded wins
