ADHD Task Picker & Roller

Features & Capabilities

Stop thinking about what to do. Focus on actually completing tasks. No distracting apps during your focus session either.

Choosing what to do is harder than doing it.

If you have 30 tasks on your list and a brain that won't pick one, ShakeTask is for you. It's a focus app built for ADHD brains — and for any brain that's tired of choosing.

HOW IT WORKS

Add your tasks. Tap the dice. It picks one. Lock in for 5, 15, or 25 minutes. The apps you choose — Instagram, TikTok, anything — become unopenable until you're done. Finish. See "Nice." Roll again, or stop.

No streaks. No shame. No 12-colour priority labels. Just one decision at a time, made for you by chance.

THE DICE MECHANIC

The dice picks a random task from what fits your current energy and time. No more staring at a list of 47 things at midnight wondering which to start. The dice decides. You just act.

Re-rolling requires a physical shake — not a tap — with a three-roll cap per session. Enough flexibility for the genuinely-bad rolls, not enough to spam your way to the easiest task.

FOCUS BLOCKING (Pro)

Pick any apps, categories, or websites. They become unopenable the moment you lock in. Unblock instantly on Done or Bail. Real OS-level blocking via Apple's Family Controls — not a willpower trick.

REST IS ROLLABLE

A built-in list of 18 short resets: drink water, look out a window, take five breaths, write one sentence, sit in sunlight for two minutes. Same dice, same commitment ritual. Resting counts as productive — because for ADHD brains, sometimes it is.

LOCK SCREEN AND DYNAMIC ISLAND

See your timer without unlocking your phone. Mark a task done straight from the Lock Screen. Bail from the Dynamic Island. Built natively on iOS so it feels like part of the operating system, not bolted on.

QUIET BY DESIGN

Calm teal and amber palette. Magazine typography. Soft haptics. No red, no shaming copy, no streaks that punish you for missing a day. Designed by and for people with rejection-sensitive dysphoria.

100% OFFLINE

Every task, list, and stat is stored on your device. ShakeTask doesn't collect, transmit, or share any personal data. Ever.
