    Mom Clock▲742

    Hi HN, I’ve tried dozens of reminder and habit apps over the years. They’re all polite. Gentle. Easy to ignore. So I built something intentionally different. Mom Clock is a reminder app that behaves more like a strict parent than a productivity coach: – no snoozing – no “later” – optional app blocking using Screen Time APIs The idea came from my own behavior: I don’t need motivation — I need enforcement. This is not for everyone. Some people hate it. Some people love it. I’m genuinely curious where HN stands on this tradeoff: comfort vs. effectiveness. Happy to answer questions about: –…

    Hey HN, I've struggled with time-blindness my whole life. ADHD means I can write 14 tasks on a to-do list and genuinely believe I'll finish them before lunch. Reality disagrees at 11 PM when everything falls apart. DayZen is my solution: your day as a 24-hour radial clock. Tasks become colored arcs. When the circle fills up, it's full. No more lying to yourself about what actually fits. Just shipped 1.4 with Focus Mode The new version adds features I've wanted since day one: Focus Mode: Full-screen timer that zooms into your current task. Distractions fade, simple controls keep you on track.…

  9. 9TK

    I kept running into this: timer on my laptop, alarm on my phone, timezone / discord timestamp conversion app in a separate tab. Switching between them was a hassle and I wanted to be able to set them up and manage really fast anywhere I was. So I built Time Keep, it puts world clocks, timers, alarms, countdowns, a stopwatch, breaks, a sleep planner, Discord timestamps, and more into one always open place. Works without an account or signup. All tools are fully functional immediately. Sign in to save your data across sessions. Pro adds live cross-device sync. Shared countdown links show…
