## Description

A research-informed anti-procrastination app created by Dr. Anusha Garg to help you start tasks, focus, earn rewards, and build follow-through.

Dawdle is a research-informed focus app designed for the hardest part of productivity: actually starting. Meet Pebbles, your AI anti-procrastination sidekick. When a task feels boring, overwhelming, vague, or easy to avoid, Pebbles helps you figure out why you’re stuck and choose a small next step.

Dawdle helps you turn avoidance into action with:
• AI chat with Pebbles: Talk through what you’re putting off and get support matched to the reason you’re stuck.
• Tiny task steps: Break overwhelming projects into smaller, more doable actions.
• Focus timers: Set a timer, name your task, and start with just a few minutes.
• Reward picker: Choose a small reward before you begin, so finishing feels more satisfying.
• Streaks and progress tracking: Track your daily focus time and build consistency over time.
• Gentle notifications: Get nudges during the times you’re most likely to put things off.

Created by Dr. Anusha Garg, a psychology PhD trained at the University of Michigan and UC Santa Barbara, whose research focuses on procrastination, motivation, and follow-through.
