Made for ADHD brains. Stimulation and reward, on demand.
ADHD brains run low on the signal that makes finishing things feel worth it. Tasks end and nothing happens, so the next task is harder to start. Touchward is a way to make something happen: a buzz, a ripple, a number going up, at the exact moment you did the thing.
Finishing needs a signal
Executive function is easier when the end of a task is marked. Touchward marks it. Sent the email? Tap. Made the call you were avoiding? Tap. Walked past the thing without picking it up? Tap. The reward is small, but it is immediate, and immediate is what an ADHD brain responds to. The counter turns a scattered day into a visible pile of done.
Stimulation when you are understimulated
Understimulation feels like boredom with an edge. Touchward gives your hands and your senses something: seven reward modes that change how the ripples move and how the haptic feels, five strengths from Gentle to Max, and with the unlock a library of over 150 haptic presets. Press and hold for a timer that traces the button's outline and pays out a bigger reward when it completes. It is a fidget that also means something.
Novelty, on purpose
ADHD brains habituate fast. So the button does not have to stay the same. Random builds a whole new look in one press, and you can save the ones you love. Change the shape, the colors, the ripples, the feel. When the button feels new, tapping it feels new.
Nudges that meet you where you are
Reminders on your own schedule are free. Calendar nudges, part of the unlock, notice when each event ends and prompt a tap, so the transition out of a meeting or a class gets a cue and a reward. On iPhone, time sensitive delivery lets a nudge through a Focus mode.
Not a treatment
Touchward is not a medical device and is not a treatment for ADHD. It is a small tool that makes rewards immediate and physical. Many people with ADHD find that useful. If you are working with a clinician, it sits comfortably alongside whatever else you do.
