For iPhone and Mac
Spoon Theory is a calm focus timer built with ADHD and autistic brains in mind. Pick a preset, press start.
One-time purchase. No subscription. No ads.
Work on one thing while the timer counts down.
Step away. The break is part of the session.
The next phase starts when you are ready, never mid-thought.
Live Activity
Your session stays on the Lock Screen, so a quick glance answers "how long until a break?" without pulling you into your phone.
Presets
Some days have room for a long stretch. Some days five minutes is a win. Save a preset for each and start the right one in a tap.
History
A week at a glance on iPhone and Mac. Notice your rhythms, like which days run long and which need a lighter plan.
Purchase one time and keep it. No subscription, no "pro" features locked behind in-app purchases.
There is nothing to sign up for. Open the app and start a session.
Sync session history and presets between your devices through your own iCloud account.
No streaks or scores. Just the timer and what you choose to do with it.
Spoon theory was written by Christine Miserandino to describe living with limited energy. Each task costs some spoons, and when they are gone, they are gone for the day.
The app borrows that idea. Focus is a resource to spend with care, and resting is part of the plan, not a failure of it.
