Show HN: Late No More – punctuality app built by a team with ADHD

1 pointsby jeznagalmost 2 years ago
I built Late No More because being late for meetings was becoming very problematic for me (I got fired from a job because of it). I have ADHD and it’s way too easy for me to see a notification for a calendar appointment, space out and then forget about the meeting for five minutes. Sometimes I hit Dismiss instead of Snooze and never show up to the meeting at all.<p>My experience is that most calendar apps aren’t built for an ADHD brain like mine. I decided to build a Mac app that would help me and hopefully other people show up on time.<p>Late-No-More gives you notifications that make sense:<p>1. a notification 15 minutes before to remind you to prepare: this one is easy to dismiss<p>2. a notification 2 minutes before to remind you to actually join the dang meeting - this one is not easy to dismiss<p>As the time gets closer to the meeting, the notification gets more and more obnoxious. It changes colour and starts playing annoying motivating sound effects. The goal is to get you to join the meeting 2 minutes early.<p>## Code<p>App is open source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Focus-Bear&#x2F;late-no-more">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Focus-Bear&#x2F;late-no-more</a><p>Mac only for now but I&#x27;d love to do a Windows&#x2F;mobile app if anyone wants to help
