ADHD Focus & Calm: Pacefold

Pacefold is a quiet toolkit for ADHD brains. No streaks, no confetti, no guilt — just four things that help you start, stay, and settle. SETTLE — WHEN EVERYTHING IS TOO LOUD A 90-second breath where the out-breath runs twice as long as the in-breath. One circle expands and contracts, and the haptics carry the rhythm so you can close your eyes. Reach it from the Home Screen, Control Center, Siri, or your Apple Watch. FOCUS SOUND — GENERATED ON YOUR DEVICE Binaural tones plus white, pink, and brown noise, synthesized in real time rather than looped from a file. Adjust the softness, set a sleep timer, and control playback from the Lock Screen. Headphones are needed for the binaural tones to work. Alongside them: nature recordings such as rain, ocean waves, a stream and a fireplace, plus calm ambient music. RHYTHM — START WITHOUT THE FIGHT A Pomodoro timer in two shapes: 25/5 for a proper block, and 10/3 for the days when 25 minutes is too much to ask. The 5-3-1 ladder shrinks a task until it is small enough to begin. False Giant separates the job you are dreading from the job that is actually in front of you. A Live Activity keeps the session on your Lock Screen. MOOD — TWO DIMENSIONS, NO SCORING Mark how pleasant and how activated you feel on a simple grid, add a tag, and get on with your day. It takes about five seconds. Over time you get a calendar, a weekly reflection, and plain descriptive patterns — never a score, and never a streak to break. PRACTICES Timed sessions including One Hundred Breaths, Body Scan, Muscle Release, Micro Break, and Wind Down, alongside interactive ones: Reframe, WOOP, Habit Anchor, and After the Sting. Nine voice-guided audio sessions with captions walk you through breathing and deep rest (narration in English and Polish). BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY USE A PHONE • Full Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, and Reduce Motion support • Haptics you can feel without looking at the screen • Siri and Shortcuts: "Pacefold settle", "Pacefold focus", "Log my mood in Pacefold" • Home Screen widget and a Control Center button • Apple Watch app for the rescue breath WHO IT IS FOR Written around ADHD, though little of it is ADHD-specific. Autistic and AuDHD users tend to reach for the same three things: the noise generator, the predictable shape of a session, and the arousal axis of the mood grid. PRIVACY No account. No telemetry. No ads. Your entries stay on your device, and you can export your mood log or delete everything whenever you want. Pacefold is a self-management and wellbeing tool. It does not diagnose or treat any condition, and it is not a substitute for professional care. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
