Special design mechanisms for ADHD users
Checklist Genie has integrated several evidence-based designs in deep collaboration with the neurodiversity community during the development phase:
- attention anchor system: Home page only displays the 3 core tasks of the day (optimized display length based on EEG experiments), triggering dopamine animation rewards upon completion to avoid information overload
- Compensation for time blindness: Task cards dynamically display a time remaining progress bar, which fades from blue to red as it approaches the deadline, and uses a Berlin noise algorithm to generate a gentle vibration reminder.
- <strong]Behavioral chain supportThe "Habit Cascade" function binds actions such as brushing teeth→taking medication→watering, and automatically highlights the next task upon completion of the previous one to reduce resistance to execution.
- <strong]Emotional adaptation mechanisms: Monitor stress levels by frequency of use, launch "5-minute versions" of simplified lists when users procrastinate, and provide encouraging microtexts
- <strong]Sensory friendly design: Provides dark color mode/opens up Dyslexia font options, disables flashing elements, all interactions strictly follow WCAG 2.1 standards
Clinical tests show that ADHD users' task completion rate increased by 47% after 3 months of use, mainly due to its 'structured but not rigid' design philosophy - allowing quick adjustments to the interface layout through long presses, etc., while maintaining the core functionality of the list.
