Tempus
What it is
Tempus is an ADHD-focused planner built around time blocking for people dealing with time blindness, task paralysis, forgetfulness, or overwhelm. Tasks, routines, and calendar events appear together on a visual vertical timeline, where blocks can be moved and a marker shows the current time. Users can speak or type tasks, then accept, edit, or discard a proposed schedule generated in about ten seconds. Tempus syncs Google, iCloud, and Outlook calendars. Focus Mode pauses distracting apps during a focus block and displays a countdown, including as a Lock Screen Live Activity. The maker says alarms can sound through Silent Mode, Focus, and Low Power Mode, with alerts ahead of task changes. The timeline can be viewed and edited offline, with updates syncing when the device reconnects. Tempus is listed for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch; its platforms are iOS and macOS. No account is required, and tasks and schedules stay on-device, with optional iCloud sync. The free plan includes AI planning, three habits, a timeline, and reminders. Monthly is $4.99 a month; Yearly is $19.99 a year; the plan labeled Lifetime is listed at $39.99 a month.
