You didn't fail. Habit trackers failed you.
DopaLoop understands how your ADHD brain works – and celebrates every step with you. No shame when you forget. No pressure to be perfect. Just support, exactly when you need it.
You know the feeling
"I forgot again" – and you feel like a failure
It's 10 PM. You open the app. Empty. Again. The streak is gone. The app makes sure you know: "5 days lost". You feel like a failure – even though you accomplished so much today. Just didn't think about the app. This shouldn't feel like failure. But with RSD (Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria), your brain searches hypervigilantly for signs of rejection – and finds it in "Streak Lost". That hurts. Every time.
"All or nothing" – gray areas don't exist
Meditated for 2 minutes instead of 20? The app shows: Not done. Empty. As if nothing happened. But 2 minutes is better than 0. You did your best. Executive dysfunction is real – sometimes 2 minutes is all you've got. And that should count. But the app only sees: "Done" or "Failed". No gray. Just black or white. This feels like constant failure. Because it is failure – in the app's eyes.
"Just start!" – But your brain can't
The motivation is there. The will is there. But your brain? Paralyzed. Complex apps with 15 different options, 3 menus, and "Custom Routine Builder" overwhelm. You just want to track – but the app wants you to make 20 decisions first. Executive dysfunction means: Decisions cost energy. Too many options = paralysis. So you don't open the app. Another day forgotten. More shame.
DopaLoop understands your brain
Every feature was built with ADHD and RSD in mind. No guilt, no shame – just support.
Small steps count too
A 5-minute meditation is a success. Not perfect, but real. With the 0-5 scale, you celebrate every step – even if it's small. DopaLoop sees your progress, even when it doesn't look perfect. 2 minutes? That's a 2 on the scale. Not empty. Not "failed". A real step forward. Your brain works differently. DopaLoop adapts – not the other way around.
Breaks belong to the journey – not to failure
One missed day doesn't erase your work. Forgiving Streaks means: DopaLoop gives you room to breathe. No "Streak Lost". No guilt trip. No red warnings. Just: "Tomorrow is a fresh start." Always. With ADHD, not all days are equal. Sometimes "surviving" is already success. DopaLoop knows that. And doesn't judge.
Speak when typing is too much
Voice Journaling is like thinking, but out loud. No barrier. No grammar. No perfection. Evening, when mental energy is gone – just speak. 30 seconds. Your thoughts are captured. No typing. No overthinking. Simply: Speak. Your thoughts are faster than your fingers. DopaLoop keeps up.
Your "Why" keeps you motivated
Goals-First means: Your habits have meaning. You're not just tracking "Meditation" – you're working on "Finding Inner Peace". The "Why" is the key. Not streak numbers. Not gamification. But real meaning. That lasts longer than any artificial motivation. You're working on something that matters to you. DopaLoop reminds you of that.
Your data stays with you
All data on your device. No cloud, no servers, no tracking. Privacy isn't a feature - it's a promise.
Why I built DopaLoop
I (the developer) have ADHD myself. I know the shame when streaks break. The overwhelm when 15 habits are waiting. The paralysis when an app has too many options. DopaLoop came from my frustration. I wanted an app that: • Doesn't shame me when I forget • Celebrates small steps (0-5 scale) • Is simple when my brain is overwhelmed (Voice Journaling) • Respects my privacy (no cloud, no tracking) This isn't a marketing phrase. This is lived experience. I'm building DopaLoop for me – and for you.
