A calmer way to keep going. — the ADHD todo list, journal & habit tracker app
Persistence is an ADHD todo list, micro-journal, habit tracker and time-blocking planner in one quiet space — designed to work with your brain, not against it.
Tasks, journal, habits and time blocking for ADHD.
Everything you need to keep going, nothing you don't.
ADHD-friendly todo list
Capture what's on your mind in a keystroke. Sort by what's urgent, not what's loudest.
Micro-journal & mood
One sentence is enough. Tag how you felt, notice the patterns, move on.
Gentle habit tracker
Build streaks gently. Miss a day without losing the thread or the momentum.
Time blocking planner
Give the day a shape. Drag tasks and habits onto a calm, snap-to-grid timeline.
Progress statistics
Watch small steps add up. Quiet charts that reward showing up, not perfection.
A private todo app: no telemetry, no tracking.
Persistence is a small, independent app. The only services involved are the ones that make it work — a sync backend and Stripe for payments. Nothing else is watching. Read the privacy page.
No telemetry
Zero analytics, tracking pixels, or fingerprinting — on the site and in the app. We can't watch what you do, and we don't want to.
Your data is yours
Your tasks and notes are stored for one reason: syncing your devices. Never sold, mined, or handed to advertisers.
You're the customer
Premium is the entire business model. You pay for the app, so you're not the product — no ads, no data brokers.
Loved by people who've quit every other productivity app.
The first app that doesn't make me feel behind. Missing a day just isn't a big deal anymore, so I actually keep coming back.
Maya R.Designer I've abandoned a dozen productivity apps. This one is quiet enough that my brain doesn't bounce off it. Two months and counting.

Frequently asked questions
- What is Persistence?
- Persistence is a calm ADHD todo list, micro-journal, habit tracker and time-blocking planner in one app. It runs on the web at persistence.sh and as native apps for macOS, Windows, Linux and Android, all in sync.
- Is Persistence free?
- Yes. The Free plan includes up to 7 tasks, 7 notes and 7 habits plus time blocking, statistics and mood tracking, with no time limit and no card required. Premium removes the limits.
- Why is it good for ADHD?
- Capture is one keystroke, habits forgive a missed day instead of breaking a streak, the journal is a single line with a mood tag, and time blocking makes the day visible. There are no guilt mechanics and very little to configure.
- Does Persistence track me?
- No. There's zero analytics, telemetry or tracking on the site or in the app. Your data is stored only to sync your devices, and Premium subscriptions are the entire business model.
- Can I reset or delete my account?
- Yes, at any time, from Settings → Danger zone. Reset erases everything you've created and gives you an empty app with the same login and plan; Delete removes your account, cancels any Premium subscription immediately and erases all your data for good. No emails, no waiting period.
- Which platforms does it run on?
- Any modern browser, plus native apps for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows, Linux (AppImage, .deb, .rpm) and Android. iOS is coming soon.
