March 25, 2026 FocusDTC — A focus timer I built for people with ADHD

I'm an independent developer with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). For years, I've been searching for a productivity app that works for me, but I've never found one that satisfied me. So, I decided to develop one myself.

FocusDTC is a free focus timer designed specifically for people with ADHD.

What makes it different:

- Visualized focus timer — lets you see your progress, not just a decreasing number

- Guilt-free, stress-free — no shame for stopping early or missing a day

- Gentle progress tracking — celebrates small victories, not punishes failures. Winning streaks

- Simple design — no complicated setup, just open and get started

Why I built it: Most productivity tools assume you already have the self-discipline to use them. For those of us with ADHD, that's the crux of the problem. I wanted an app that worked in harmony with how my brain works, not against it.

This app is completely free — no ads, no paywalls. This is a personal project based on my own experience, not a commercial one.

I'd love to hear your feedback—what worked, what didn't, and what you'd like to see next.
