Features that address real ADHD challenges

Most timers are built for neurotypical work patterns. TimeTally is flexible enough to fit yours.

Live finish-time ETA

Time blindness is real. TimeTally shows "Done at 3:42 PM" the moment you start — so you always have an anchor to the present instead of an abstract countdown.

Any interval length

25 minutes doesn't work for everyone. Set tasks to 10 minutes, 45 minutes, or 7 minutes. Your session, your rhythm — no app telling you how long to focus.

Audio task announcements

Hear each task name announced by voice when it starts. Eliminates the distraction of checking a timer — and the transition anxiety of not knowing what's next.

Auto-advance

When one task ends, the next begins automatically. No clicking to continue — removing the moment where ADHD derails a session between tasks.

Your tasks, named clearly

Label every task exactly what it is — "Write intro paragraph," "Email Dr. Kim," "10-min walk." Named tasks reduce decision fatigue when transitioning.

Separate tabs per context

Keep Work, Study, and Chores as separate saved lists. Context-switch without rebuilding your whole routine every time.

Build an ADHD-friendly session in 2 minutes

No templates, no onboarding, no app to install. Just your tasks and a timer.

1

Name your tasks

Type what you're actually doing — "Focus: project X," "Break: walk," "Admin: emails." Specific names reduce the switching cost between tasks.

2

Set your own durations

Give each task the time that matches your energy. 15 minutes for hard focus, 5 for a break, 20 for admin. No rigid blocks.

3

See when you'll be done

The live ETA appears immediately. You know before you start: "This session ends at 4:15." That's your anchor against time blindness.

4

Let it run

Audio announces each task. The timer advances automatically. You stay in flow without having to manage the timer itself.

Your timer. Your intervals. Your brain.

Common questions

Why is the standard Pomodoro (25/5) hard for ADHD? +

The 25-minute block is arbitrary — ADHD brains often hyperfocus for longer or need shorter windows depending on medication timing, energy, and task type. A timer that forces you out of flow at 25 minutes can be more disruptive than helpful. TimeTally lets you set each task to whatever duration actually fits.

How does the ETA help with time blindness? +

Instead of a countdown that only tells you how many minutes remain in one task, TimeTally shows the wall-clock time you'll finish your whole session — "Done at 4:30 PM." That connects the abstract timer to real time, which is exactly what ADHD time blindness disrupts.

Is TimeTally free? +

Yes, completely. No account, no premium tier, no time limits. Every feature works immediately in your browser.

Can I save my routine for next time? +

Yes. Your task lists save automatically in your browser. Install TimeTally as a PWA and your saved routines are one tap away — no login, no sync, no friction.
