Less setup
Start with today instead of building an elaborate productivity system first.
Less friction, fewer competing priorities
A simpler daily planner for ADHD-friendly planning
When tasks, reminders and priorities compete for attention, a complicated system can become one more thing to maintain. Gentle Structure gives the day a smaller shape: capture what is on your mind, choose a few priorities, plan what needs a time and focus on one thing at a time.
7 days free, then $5 AUD/month. Cancel anytime.
Why complicated planners can become more work
Categories, nested projects and lengthy setup can create more decisions before the real work begins. Constant notifications, crowded lists and streak pressure can also make an ordinary change of plan feel like a failure.
ADHD-friendly planning does not need to mean more features. It can mean simple visual structure, fewer things competing for attention and enough flexibility for the day to change.
Fewer competing signals
Keep priorities visible without asking every task to demand attention at once.
Less performance pressure
Use habits and reflection without turning consistency into a public score.
Start by getting loose thoughts out of the way
Brain Dump gives tasks, reminders and unfinished thoughts a place to land before you decide where they belong. Capture first, then move only what matters into today’s priorities or task list. You do not need to organise every thought immediately.
Make a few priorities visible
Choose a small number of outcomes for today and keep supporting tasks secondary. The full list can still exist without every item occupying the same visual space or asking for an immediate decision.
Capture broadly
Write down what is present.
Choose narrowly
Select what matters today.
Act clearly
Return to one next step.
Give time-sensitive work a place
Use hourly blocks for appointments, deadlines or work that benefits from a clear place in the day. The planner covers all 24 hours, but it does not require every hour to be scheduled. Flexible tasks can stay flexible, and the plan can change with the day.
Focus, habits and review with less pressure
Focus on one thing
Focus sessions help reduce competing visual demands for a manageable stretch of work. They are a planning aid, not a medical intervention.
Habits without streak pressure
Keep routines visible without turning consistency into a competitive streak dashboard.
Review without productivity guilt
Daily, weekly and monthly reviews are a place to notice what helped, not to grade the day.
Find useful context again
History, calendar and search help you revisit earlier plans, while local cache, account sync and export keep records available.
Five steps, one calmer sequence
Use the full sequence when it helps, or return to the single step you need.
Capture tasks and reminders without sorting first.
Bring a few meaningful outcomes into view.
Give time-sensitive work a place.
Work with one thing at a time.
Notice what supported the day.

ADHD-friendly daily planner FAQ
Is Gentle Structure an ADHD planner?
Gentle Structure is a general planning tool designed with simple visual structure, fewer competing priorities and low-pressure routines. Those qualities can make it an ADHD-friendly planning option, but the product is not designed to diagnose or treat ADHD.
Can adults with ADHD use Gentle Structure?
Yes. Adults with ADHD can use the planner, just as anyone can. Whether its structure suits you is a personal preference rather than a medical recommendation.
Does Gentle Structure treat or manage ADHD?
No. Gentle Structure is a planning and productivity tool, not a medical device, ADHD treatment or source of medical advice.
Do I need to plan my whole day?
No. Use priorities and tasks on their own, or add hourly blocks only when giving work a specific time is useful.
Can I brain dump tasks before organising them?
Yes. Brain Dump lets you capture loose tasks and reminders before deciding what belongs in today’s plan.
Does Gentle Structure use streaks?
The habit area keeps routines visible without presenting a competitive streak dashboard.
Can I change my plan during the day?
Yes. Priorities, tasks and time blocks can be adjusted as the day changes.
Can I cancel during the free trial?
Yes. Cancel through the existing Stripe billing account flow before the trial ends to avoid the monthly charge.
