Some days you need a clear plan. Other days that same plan feels impossible. DoMind gives you structure without making your whole day depend on sticking to a rigid schedule.
Built by a small indie team who got tired of needing five apps to manage one day. • Join the community: r/DoMindofficial - real people using DoMind, real feedback, real conversations.

The idea you had while walking home. The thing you meant to research. The grocery list that's somehow in the same app as your work notes. DoMind keeps notes grouped so your shopping list isn't next to your meeting notes. Add a photo, format with rich text, search through all of it. Swipe down to save.
Make DoMind feel like yours with multiple themes and customisation options. And it speaks your language - 29 of them, including French, Japanese, Hindi, Indonesian, Spanish, and more. Use it the way that works for you.
Every year, your aunt's birthday passes and you think 'I'll do something proper next year.' You never do, because by the time it comes around again, you've forgotten when it is. Add her birthday as an Occasion in DoMind. It repeats automatically. Each year gets its own notes and photos, so over time you build a timeline of the people who matter most.
You bought concert tickets in February. The show is in October. By September you've completely forgotten the details. Add it as a DoMind Event and it sits on your timeline, visible whenever you check. After the show, add photos and notes - so you actually remember it the way it was, not just as a line on a receipt.
Your camera roll has 4,000 photos and you can't find the ones from that trip to Portugal. DoMind Moments is a private photo journal, completely separate from your camera roll, with a date and a note attached to each memory. No cloud, no algorithm, no one else seeing it. Just yours.
That dentist appointment you've been meaning to book for three months lives rent-free in your head. Put it in DoMind with a due date and it stops taking up space in your brain. Make it recurring for things that come back - quarterly reviews, monthly finance check-ins, weekly calls - and it reappears automatically.
Those woolen jumpers need washing before winter, but you only remember in March when it's too late. Set it as a repeating Chore - the right week, every year - and DoMind handles the reminder. Add a checklist for the steps, a note about the temperature setting, and never have to think about it again.
It's 8am. You open four apps to figure out what today looks like. DoMind shows you everything - habits due, chores scheduled, todos with deadlines, upcoming events - in one view, the moment you open it. Nothing to navigate. Just your day, laid out.
Living with both Autism and ADHD (AuDHD) is a constant internal contradiction. Your autistic mind craves routine, predictability, and clear expectations to feel grounded and safe. Meanwhile, your ADHD mind craves novelty, flexibility, and freedom, actively rebelling against anything that feels too rigid or monotonous.
When you try to use traditional planning systems, you get caught in an exhausting cycle:
You don't need to force yourself to choose between strict rigidity and chaotic spontaneity. A supportive AuDHD planner gives you stable anchors with flexible space—providing enough visual structure so you always know where you are, without trapping you in a schedule that breaks when life happens.
Here are 10 real-world planning tensions AuDHD adults navigate every day—and how DoMind helps you find balance.
You spend hours designing the ultimate morning flow: Wake up at 7:00 → 10-min stretch → shower → cooked breakfast → tea → deep work at 8:30.
It works for four days. Then on Friday, you sleep poorly, a family member calls unexpectedly, or an early dentist appointment interrupts you. Because the rigid chain was broken, your brain short-circuits. You don't just miss one step; the entire routine collapses, leaving you feeling frustrated and unmoored.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind separates routines from rigid clock times. In the Habits & Health tab, routines are organized into broad windows (Morning, Afternoon, Evening) rather than strict timestamps. If you wake up late or get interrupted, your morning anchors are still right there waiting for you, ready to be checked off in whatever order feels possible.
This is the core AuDHD paradox. Without a plan, the day is an infinite, unstructured void where starting anything feels impossible. But when a planner forces you to schedule every single 15-minute block, the schedule feels like a prison, triggering demand avoidance.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind provides anchors, not cages. Your essential commitments (a 10:00 AM team call, morning medication, taking out the recycling) appear as clear visual checkpoints on your Today View. The open space between them remains flexible for your brain to navigate naturally.
Yesterday afternoon, in a state of high motivation, you filled today's schedule with eight demanding tasks. But you woke up today feeling sensory-overloaded, exhausted, and low on dopamine. Looking at your ambitious planner makes you feel like an immediate failure.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind treats plans as living, adaptable guides. Using the swipeable date ribbon, you can slide four non-urgent tasks over to tomorrow with a single tap. You can recalibrate your day around your real energy levels without guilt or broken streaks.
You mentally mapped out your sequence: Finish work report → grocery store → cook dinner → relax. Suddenly, a client reschedules a meeting to 4:30 PM. Having your expected flow disrupted forces your brain into sudden cognitive overload as you try to mentally reconstruct your entire evening.
How DoMind solves this: When plans change, you don't have to rebuild the day from working memory. Open DoMind, adjust the meeting timeframe, and visually slide your grocery task to tomorrow. Seeing the new layout visually grounds your mind and lowers transition anxiety.
You want to know that you have a doctor appointment at 2:00 PM, that the trash goes out tonight, and that you need to email your accountant. What you do not want is an alarm going off at 11:15 AM telling you to fold laundry for exactly 12 minutes.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind offers time-agnostic task organization alongside scheduled meetings. Your appointments show clear start/end times in the Meetings tab, while tasks and chores live in a clear daily list sorted by 4 visual priority flags. You know exactly what matters without being micromanaged by a timer.
Your morning routine, bedtime wind-down, laundry cycle, and weekly administrative maintenance are essential for keeping your life running. But having to manually remember and write them down every single week drains precious executive function.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind automates recurring predictability. The dedicated Chores tab features 120+ visual icons and weekly snake-paths that automatically regenerate repeating responsibilities upon completion. Your routines stay predictable without requiring you to manage them manually.
Your ADHD brain is currently hyperfocused on woodworking. Two weeks later, it's 3D printing, followed by Japanese gardening. While your passion projects rotate rapidly, the boring basics of life (dishes, bills, doctor calls, work deliverables) remain constant.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind provides separate mental compartments. Use the Notes tab as an infinite canvas for brainstorming your newest hyperfocus, while your Today View and Chores tab quietly safeguard your recurring daily responsibilities in the background.
You open a typical productivity app and are immediately bombarded by 50 nested folders, complex databases, flashing red overdue notifications, and constant pop-ups. The tool that was supposed to reduce your stress has become another source of sensory exhaustion.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind is designed with a calm, sensory-friendly aesthetic. There are no flashing banners, complex formulas, or red overdue shaming badges. You see a clean, unified stream of today's items with smooth navigation and a distraction-free Dark Mode.
Knowing that certain basics are consistent gives the neurodivergent nervous system a feeling of safety: Taking morning medication • School pickup at 3:15 PM • Sunday grocery planning • Evening skincare.
How DoMind solves this: DoMind locks in your predictable anchors through custom recurring rules and exact-time alarms. You get the reassuring comfort of routine where it counts, while keeping the rest of your daily schedule open and fluid.
You shouldn't have to force your AuDHD brain into an all-or-nothing trap between total military discipline and disorganized chaos.
The sweet spot is Stable Anchors + Flexible Space:
How DoMind solves this: DoMind's 9 unified tabs (Today View, Tasks, Chores, Habits, Meetings, Events, Occasions, Notes, Moments) work together to give you a clear visual anchor for every area of life—giving your brain the stability it craves and the freedom it needs.
See scheduled appointments, tasks, and daily routines unified in one place without rigid 15-minute micromanagement.
Automate repetitive household maintenance with 120+ visual icons and weekly snake-path views.
Clean, calm interface with zero red shame badges, no complex formulas, and full Dark Mode support.
Your plans and private reflections stay securely on your physical device with zero cloud trackers or ads.
An AuDHD planner is a specialized daily organizer designed for people with both Autism and ADHD. It balances the autistic need for routine, visual predictability, and stability with the ADHD need for novelty, low friction, and flexible adaptation.
AuDHD-friendly planners combine clear visual anchors (habits, chores, appointments) with flexible task rescheduling, low-friction note capture, sensory-friendly layouts, and shame-free reset options that don't penalize missed days.
Focus on anchor points rather than continuous timeblocking. Set fixed times only for true commitments (meetings, medication), organize habits into broad windows (Morning/Evening), and keep daily to-dos in a flexible priority list.
Rigid hour-by-hour schedules trigger pathological demand avoidance (PDA) and collapse the moment real-life disruptions occur, leading to intense frustration and system abandonment.
Without visible structure, working memory and executive dysfunction make it difficult to prioritize or initiate actions, resulting in decision fatigue and aimless paralysis.
Group routines by time of day (Morning, Afternoon, Evening) or sequence cues rather than exact clock times. DoMind lets you check off habits whenever they occur throughout the day without breaking streaks.
Use 4 visual priority flags to spotlight 1–2 essential tasks, leaving the rest optional. If energy drops, use DoMind's date ribbon to slide lower-priority items to tomorrow with a single tap.
Externalize the adjustment visually. Seeing the new layout in DoMind grounds your perception of time, easing the emotional friction of unexpected transitions.
Treat routines as checklists of anchors rather than scheduled calendar appointments. Checking them off when you finish creates positive reinforcement without timestamp pressure.
Rely on DoMind's Today View, which shows your fixed appointments alongside an open, ranked task stream that you can work through at your own natural pace.
Visual elements like progress rings, color-coded priority flags, chore icons, and meeting blocks reduce cognitive load, making responsibilities instantly recognizable without reading walls of text.
Long unranked lists trigger sensory and executive overload because your brain struggles to filter signal from noise. DoMind keeps your long backlog tucked away while displaying only today's focus.
Choose minimalist tools without complicated database configurations, turn off excessive notifications, and limit your daily active tasks to 3 or fewer.
Use DoMind's Chores tab. Its recurring logic automatically schedules the next occurrence once you check off a task, ensuring household maintenance stays visible without manual effort.
Keep maintenance routines automated in the background while using flexible Notes and Tasks tabs to capture, explore, and rotate new hyperfocus projects without guilt.
Adopt the "Anchors + Flexible Space" method: lock in your vital 3–4 daily routines and meetings, and leave the remaining hours open for adaptable, interest-driven focus.
