The timer for brains that hate starting
Ten tiny minutes, a sound you like, and a room that feels safe. That's the whole trick. Momentum does the rest.
Built for the ADHD brain
Instant rewards
Each finished session pays out immediately: streak up, dopamine hit, square on the board. No delayed gratification required.
Visible progress
Rankings and stats turn invisible effort into numbers you can see move. Novelty and competition keep the timer interesting.
Body doubling
Study in a shared room with others. Working alongside someone, even virtually, is one of the best-documented ADHD focus aids.
Time blindness, fixed
The heatmap shows where your hours actually went. External record beats internal clock.
ADHD timer FAQ
Do Pomodoro timers work for ADHD?
Yes, with a tweak: shorter sessions. Many people with ADHD do better starting at 10 or 15 minutes instead of 25. The deadline creates urgency, and urgency is fuel.
What timer length is best for ADHD?
Whatever you'll actually start. Begin with 10 minutes; once started, momentum usually carries you further. You can always run another sprint.
Why does body doubling help?
An accountability presence quiets the part of your brain looking for an exit. Peazehub's study groups give you that presence on demand.
Ten minutes. That's the whole ask.
