An ADHD-friendly study timer should make time easier to understand, progress easier to feel, and completion easier to reach.
FlightMode helps by turning focus sessions into peaceful flights. Instead of staring at a countdown, you choose a destination, take off, stay focused, and land when the session is complete.
FlightMode has 100K+ downloads, 1,300+ 5-star App Store reviews, and 150K+ completed focus flights.
Why Timers Can Be Hard With ADHD
Many timers are too abstract. A number counting down can feel disconnected from the task. If the session has no story or visible progress, it is easy to leave.
For ADHD-friendly focus, the best tools make the commitment more concrete.

FlightMode was built around those traits.
Why Flight Progress Helps
A flight is easier to picture than a timer.
When you are in flight, you understand that you are between takeoff and landing. That creates a simple mental model for focus: stay with the session until arrival.
This is helpful because it turns time into movement. You are not just waiting. You are getting closer to landing.
How FlightMode Supports Focus
FlightMode supports study and deep work through:
These features help make progress visible and reduce the friction of starting again.
ADHD-Friendly Does Not Mean Medical Treatment
FlightMode is a productivity tool, not a medical treatment. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace professional ADHD care.
What it can do is give focus sessions more structure. For many users, a concrete ritual is easier to follow than an open-ended plan.
When to Use FlightMode
FlightMode works well for:
The key is to choose one task before takeoff. A timer works best when the destination is clear.
Bottom Line
If normal timers feel too abstract, FlightMode gives focus a shape. Choose a destination, take off, follow progress, and land with a completed session.
