TryCoax: Focus & Routines

You know what you need to do. You have known for three days. You still cannot start. That is not laziness, and it is not a motivation problem. Starting, staying and stopping are three separate executive functions, and ADHD makes all three harder. Coax is built around those three moments, not around another to-do list. START THE THING YOU ARE AVOIDING Tell Coax what you are stuck on, by typing it or saying it. It gives you one first step small enough that refusing it feels absurd: not "do your taxes" but "open the folder where your tax documents are". Still too big? Tap Smaller, and it splits again until starting feels easy. GET NUDGED WHEN IT IS TIME Not now? Pick a time. When it comes, your phone buzzes until you act on it, and you hold to start the first step. Snooze for ten minutes, or let it go for today. The buzzing always stops after two minutes, and nothing is held against you. SOMEONE BESIDE YOU Working near other people makes starting easier. Start a focus session in one tap: solo, with ambient sound (rain, café, library, lo-fi or calm), in a quiet room with other people working at the same time, or paired with one person. No booking, no camera, no chat. Just presence. Sessions remember the length you usually pick, and "just five minutes" is always one tap away. SEE TIME INSTEAD OF READING IT Thirty minutes and three hours can feel the same from the inside. Coax shows time as a shrinking disc and tells you when the session ends, so you can feel how much is left. Warnings start fifteen minutes before the end, because five seconds is not enough time to actually stop. Coax also learns how far off your time estimates usually run, and shows you your real number. ROUTINES THAT DO NOT JUDGE YOU Morning, start of work, shutdown, evening. Start from a ready-made routine, change any step, then follow along one step at a time with the next one previewed. Skip a step and nothing happens: no mark, no colour, no history to feel bad about later. Optional one-tap medication logging, with no scores and no adherence percentages. WHEN EVERYTHING IS TOO MUCH Emergency mode hides everything else and gives you one breath and one small thing to do. Free, confidential crisis lines are always one tap away. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY USE Share a task from your notes, your calendar or another to-do app, and Coax opens with it already broken into steps. BUILT SO YOU CAN COME BACK Most productivity apps punish you for leaving. Coax does the opposite: no overdue counts, no red badges, no streak that can be lost. Anything you captured and never got to quietly archives itself after three weeks. Come back after a couple of weeks and you get a clean screen, and a ferret who is simply happy to see you. FREE, AND PLUS Free forever: focus sessions and breaks, the visual timer, ambient sound, routines, medication logging, quick capture, start nudges, emergency mode, and three AI breakdowns a week, with simple suggestions any time. Coax Plus adds unlimited AI breakdowns, open focus rooms, insights and estimate calibration, home screen widgets, every ambient scene, and the full companion collection. Every account starts with 14 days of everything, free. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No ads. No data sale. Your tasks, sessions, routines and medication log live on your phone. Medication logs and daily check-ins are never sent to anyone. Export or delete everything in one tap. Coax is a general wellness app. It does not diagnose, treat, or manage ADHD, and it will never give you medical or medication advice. If something in your patterns looks worth discussing, take it to your prescriber.
