@trina_haynes Couldn't have scaled our impact without you and making Indy what it is today!

Hi, everyone! I’m Elisabeth, the Product Designer of the team.
Indy is not just another ADHD tool. There are plenty of productivity lists, calendars, and trackers. The Indy experience is instead rooted in narrative and vision, to help you identify the meaning behind doing any of those things on your lists, calendars, and trackers. This is something you experience on a deep level when working with a professional Shimmer ADHD coach.
To communicate the depth of the experience, we explored a celestial, dark-mode aesthetic with a lot of clean, open space that helps the ADHD mind focus on one thing at a time.
We hope you download and enjoy the app as we continue to evolve the UI and features to deliver more value and delight!

@elisabethbridges The celestial theme is SO beautiful, you absolutely crushed it Elisabeth! Can't wait for future features and how we extend this theme!
Indy is game-changing. I have been using it since its launch and I am seriously so grateful for it. Came across it through @christal's page and cant thank you enough!
The design is very clean and intuitive. It was easy to get started and to keep using it consistently.
The 'Lifeline' exercise is my favorite feature so far. Having my goals and dreams for the future mapped out in categories really help anchor it and I love how the app reminds me of these when solving problems or setting daily goals.
The messaging feature was a bit tricky to get used to. Since AI chat apps usually let you ramble. But I am starting to see its strength in helping me stay focused, reduce overwhelm, and explore new possibilities.
Looking forward to seeing how the app keeps generating insights and patterns that would help me in the long term.

@sruthy_sasi so glad you found us through Chris's page and thank you so much for giving us a try! We definitely went back and forth between allowing our AI to talk at length or not, but decided that the limitation would help with the structure and push forward a lot of our beta users were needing.
Really hope Indy can continue to help you tackle the day-to-day responsibilities and keep moving forward towards your goals!
@vikram_sreedhar Absolutely! uncomfortable does not mean bad. This looks like the gentle structure we needed afterall.
Curious to see how Indy could support someone sort of 'falling of the wagon' or having a stretch of bad or low to no activity days? I have noticed a shame in going back to the app when a couple of days didn't go as expected. Would it gently nudge us back or do we need to take the first step back? Thank you for your answer
Indy has been very useful in just helping me track some of my learnings about how I work best and identifying blind spots or things I hadn’t considered. It’s become a part of my morning routine!

@tiasabs Thanks so much Lavanya! Love that Indy is being integrated that way into your day, and we'll make sure to keep improving it's pattern recognition!

@kingsongchen Thanks so much Kingsong!!
Wow, Indy looks amazing! The focus on future-mapping is exactly what I need. How does the AI personalize the daily scaffolding based on my past reflections? This could be a game changer!
Shimmer ADHD
@jaydev13 Great question! Our AI tracks what you mention in your reflections and is able to recollect them during your daily planning chats, so it would recall what you were working on before or what you wanted to adjust from the previous day(s) and personalize the support around that rather than just generically helping you plan your day.
Indy has honestly been such a good find for me. It’s structured and goal-oriented, but not in a way that overwhelms you. I’ve tried other apps that made me feel like I was failing, but this one actually helps me stay on track and feel proud of my progress. I love it. Thank you for helping me!
