TodoWall's AI handles the cognitive load of breaking down tasks and prioritizing - exactly what ADHD brains struggle with. Habitica requires you to do this planning yourself.
Habitica's endless features, party obligations, and complex RPG mechanics can overwhelm ADHD users. TodoWall keeps things simple and focused.
Habitica's party system can trigger ADHD rejection sensitivity when you "let the team down." TodoWall's Mochi companions provide judgment-free support.
Lock screen integration means tasks are visible when you need them, working with ADHD's "out of sight, out of mind" challenge.
"Habitica was too much for my ADHD brain. Too many quests, too many features, too much pressure from my party. TodoWall just quietly helps me get things done without the overwhelm."

If you have ADHD or executive dysfunction, TodoWall is designed specifically for your brain.
