Using a Mac focus timer: practical options for ADHD

A timer is a planning aid, not a treatment for ADHD or a guarantee against time blindness, burnout, or hyperfocus. This article makes no claim that a specific timer design works for every neurodivergent person.

Choose a focus and break interval that suits your task, then adjust it based on your own experience. NotchDock’s Timer settings include Pomodoro presets and adjustable durations. For clinical questions, use guidance from a qualified health professional.
