Focus that works
with your brain.

Time you can finally feel.

TimeTaps turns time into something you can see. Visual timers, focus sprints, guided breaks, and a hamster companion that grows with your streak. Built for time blindness, burnout, and the brain you actually have.

Designed by Dr. Casey Simon, a licensed therapist who works with ADHD clients, so the tools fit how ADHD brains actually work.

Time blindness

Make time something you can feel.

A clock shows numbers, not the feeling of time slipping away. TimeTaps turns time into motion you can watch, so starting and stopping stop being a guess.

Time made visible

An animated timer and progress ring show how much time is left in a way your brain can actually use, even mid-hyperfocus.

The ideaSmall wins lead to steady momentum, which leads to less burnout.

Planning, but kinder

Turn tasks into steps, work in short sprints, and take guided breaks that genuinely reset your nervous system.

The resultMore follow-through, fewer panic spirals.
Features

Built for ADHD minds.

The core app is free, forever. Designed for time awareness, not perfect productivity.

Visual Timer

A big countdown and an animated ring keep time tangible, even when you are deep in hyperfocus.

Free

Focus Sprints

24-minute focus sessions with 5-minute guided breaks, and a longer break every four sprints. Adjust focus from 15 to 45 minutes to fit your brain.

Free

Planner and Steps

Tasks, subtasks, and urgency cues turn an overwhelming to-do list into small, doable steps.

Free

Guided Breaks

Box breathing, hydration, eye rest, and stretches. Six guided activities so a break never becomes a doom-scroll.

Free

Streaks and Shields

Build a daily focus streak with milestones at 7, 14, and 30 days. A Streak Shield bridges one missed day so a single off-day never resets you.

Free

Hamster Companion

A free companion that evolves with your focus. Six animations, five evolution stages, and a pet shop for the carrots you earn.

Free

Focus Insights

Heatmaps show how your mood, energy, and focus connect. Personal bests and gentle trends, never shame.

Free

Widgets and Watch

Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, a live sprint countdown, and an Apple Watch app for one-tap starts.

Free
How it works

A loop that keeps you moving.

Four simple steps, repeated, that build momentum without overwhelm.

Pick a task

Add a task, break it into steps, or let AI generate them for you with Pro.

Start a sprint

Tap to begin a focus sprint, 24 minutes by default, with your hamster cheering you on.

Take a real break

A five-minute guided break: box breathing, hydration, eye rest, or a stretch.

Grow your streak

Earn carrots, unlock achievements, and build a focus streak that sticks.

The companion

A focus buddy, not a boss.

Most productivity apps push guilt. TimeTaps gives you a small companion that celebrates progress instead. Every focus sprint earns carrots, and your hamster grows happier and more capable as you go.

  • Evolves with youSix animations and five evolution stages that reflect your focus habits.
  • Carrot economySpend the carrots you earn in the pet shop on hats, toys, and cozy homes.
  • Reward without pressureEncouragement that meets you where you are, designed to reduce shame.
