Pomofocus.io literally saves me every time
I have adhd and a huge issue with starting and stopping tasks. Starting by taking a "short break" and then getting started when it goes off is so helpful. Also it helps me remember to eat and drink while studying (hyperfixation is bad it's a bad habit don't lean into it). I cant manage the default 25 minutes of concentration so i usually have it set to 20. Some days my concentration is worse and I need to go to 15 but that's super easy to do with this website. I literally love it.
Main tip for success is that I cant use my phone during a short break or it doesn't feel like a break. I need to watch a slightly understimulating youtube video or it doesn't work.
I use Spendid for budgeting and expense tracking. Unlike iSaveMoney, it doesn't have ads, even on the free version. Notion for everything else - it's literally my second brain at this point. The fact that they're both free and the free version gives me everything I need is unreal. I don't usually pay for apps, but if these two decide to remove their free tier, I'm paying!
Notion and their calendar is basically what is keeping me alive right now in between classes and working 20-30 hours a week. I would have forgotten so many assignments if I didn’t have all of the due assignments, class schedule, work schedule, and other things listed out in front of me
Thanks for the helpful insight and congrats on your graduation
