Our team was challenged to redesign an existing productivity application to create a more effective and meaningful user experience. We selected Brain.fm because of its science-backed focus music and its existing ADHD Mode, a feature with strong potential but limited functionality.
Through user research with individuals with ADHD and an exploration of cognitive psychology, including concepts such as flow state and executive function, we identified opportunities to better support users before and during focused work. Guided by these insights, we reimagined the ADHD Mode as a structured focus journey that helps users transition from intention to action through goal setting, AI-assisted task organization, a guided warm-up, and a simplified, distraction-free listening experience.
