A timer you actually want to look at.
Hit Go and the lava starts to fill. One task on screen, the next one waiting quietly underneath. Pomodoro rounds when you want them, and Auto moves you on when time’s up.

Mellowdo is the calm to-do and focus app for ADHD and busy brains. Get it out of your head, do one thing while the lava fills, tick it off. Then the next.
No ads, no tracking, nothing sold.You spend more time sorting, tagging and feeling behind than actually doing. Mellowdo is built the other way round.

Type one line or just say it. Tasks, thoughts and “oh wait” moments land in the right place without filing.

Start my day lines up your routines and what’s due. Focus shows only the next thing, with a timer that fills like a lava lamp.

No streaks to break and no red overdue walls. Unfinished things roll gently to tomorrow. Progress just shows you turned up.
Hit Go and the lava starts to fill. One task on screen, the next one waiting quietly underneath. Pomodoro rounds when you want them, and Auto moves you on when time’s up.

Routines, anything due and the things you picked, in one list. Tap Start my day and Focus walks you through it.

That “oh wait” in the middle of something? Park it in one tap and turn it into a task later.

Mornings, evenings, the gym. Set the steps once, add a one-off just for today.

Shopping, the house, work. Share one with your partner and you both see what’s done.

Open mellowdo.app on your computer and it’s all there, with room to breathe. Nothing to install, and it stays in step with your iPhone.


Tasks on the left, a timeline of when you’ll finish on the right.
A calendar that shows your tasks where they fall.
Pop the timer out and it sits over your other windows while you work.
One account. Tick it off at your desk, it’s ticked on your iPhone.
Eight paintings to focus inside, with lofi, rain and café sounds if you want them. Choose the one that suits the hour.








Choose the apps that distract you. They’re blocked while a Focus timer runs, and pausing lifts the block, so there’s always a way out.
Got a YouTube mix you always work to? Save it once and play it while you focus, next to our own lofi, piano and rain.

Bins outFridaySay it or type it however it comes out. Mellow turns a ramble into tasks, plans your day around fixed times, and asks before anything big.
Share a shopping list, a feeding log or a note with your partner and you both see what’s done, as it happens.
Some things are missing because they make you feel worse, not better.
The Lava Focus Timer is free and needs no sign-up. Set the minutes, press Go, watch it fill.
“Managing your tasks should never take more effort than doing them.”
The one rule Mellowdo is built on.
It’s built with ADHD brains in mind, but it suits anyone who finds normal to-do apps heavy: busy parents, people with too many tabs open in their head, anyone who freezes at a long list.
Free while it’s in beta, with everything included. Later there’ll be a free version that does the whole job, and an optional paid Plus. Anything you’ve already made stays yours either way.
The web app works in any modern browser on a computer, tablet or phone. The iPhone app is in beta now and coming to the App Store. Your account syncs between them.
Your tasks are stored in your account (hosted in London) so they sync between devices. No ads, no tracking, nothing sold. You can export everything or delete your account in the app at any time. Privacy policy.
Yes. Connect Mellowdo once and you can ask Claude or ChatGPT to add tasks, tell you what’s on today, tick things off or park a thought. It only sees your tasks, lists and thoughts, after you tap Allow. How to connect it.
No. Mellow is there if you want to talk or type instead of tapping. Everything else works without it, and it asks before it’s switched on.
