AuDHD · self-regulation

One calm place for how the week actually felt.

Meet AuDHD Loop.

AuDHD Loop is a private self-regulation journal for adults — check capacity, log stims without shame, make one first action editable, start with quiet support, and review the week without scores or diagnoses. Your journal stays on device.

Free to use. Any optional upgrade is shown in the App Store before purchase.

What it does

A capacity-to-start loop for stims, sensory load, energy and task momentum — it records what you choose, offers one next move, and explains every observation with real counts.

How it works

Check your own energy and sensory load. Log what happened, group tasks by energy fit, and edit the smallest visible first action. Start a private 10-, 25-, or 50-minute supported session, record what helped, then review observations that disclose their sample and date window. AuDHD Loop does not sense, diagnose, score, or explain you.

Who it’s for

For AuDHD adults — people who are both autistic and ADHD — and any adult who wants a private, shame-free record of their own self-regulation. What you share from it, and with whom, is entirely your choice.

Accessibility built in

Your journal is stored on device, with optional device authentication. The interface respects Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, contrast and reduced-motion settings. Nothing grades, streaks, or nags.

Stims, without shame

Log stims without shame.

Stims are valid self-regulation. AuDHD Loop is built around one line from its own App Store listing: “Capture stims, sensory moments, energy, and what helped.” — noticing patterns is not the same as policing yourself. What helped sits in your journal on your own terms: you decide what belongs there and why — perhaps because a particular stim hurts your hands or your budget, never because someone else finds it inconvenient.

You will find no compliance framing on this page, no target behaviour, no gold star for a quiet week. A journal records; it does not correct. More on the affirming stance: what stimming is.

What the week looks like inside

Five things it does. Five honest boundaries.

Log stims

…and replacement strategies — without shame. The app records what you write; it senses nothing.

Capture sensory events

A quick capture before the details disappear — what happened, where the load came from, what helped.

Batch tasks by energy

Instead of forcing a generic to-do list, group tasks by your own read of your energy. The app reorganises; it does not measure energy.

Start one visible action

Edit the smallest first action, then begin a private 10-, 25-, or 50-minute supported session — no camera and no performance score.

Review the week

One transparent observation stays free, with its sample count, date window, and a plain reminder that a pattern does not explain why.

Free first. Pro when useful

Core logging, task groups, seeded strategies, three supported sessions a week, and one observation stay free. Pro adds all observations, unlimited sessions, custom strategies, and weekly CSV export. Prices live in the App Store.

On device

AuDHD Loop stores your journal on device. What you share from it, and with whom, is entirely your choice.

For an adults-only body-doubling companion built around unlimited silent sessions, see Sidle — Sidle offers quiet structure for the task now; Loop helps you understand the week. The silent timer works locally, without a camera or login.

The AuDHD Loop

One loop, from capacity to reflection.

Check capacity

Choose your own energy label and sensory-load level. AuDHD Loop can offer one next move from the tasks you grouped; it does not measure your body or decide what you should manage.

Make the start editable

Turn the wall-of-task into the smallest action your hands can do — open the document, find the number, put one item by the door — then start a private 10-, 25-, or 50-minute supported session.

Review what you actually logged

When a real threshold is met, an observation shows the sample count, date window, and counted example. It describes the records; it never claims to know the cause.

Privacy & the boundary

A journal, and only a journal.

AuDHD Loop stores your journal on device, and its App Store privacy label states that the developer does not collect any data from this app — no tracking, nothing watching. If you use Pro’s weekly digest export, it is a self-report summary you choose to share — with a therapist, a partner, no one.

AuDHD Loop is “a personal wellness and journaling tool, not a diagnostic device, treatment plan, crisis service, or medical record.” That sentence is from the app’s own listing, and it stays load-bearing here: nothing in Loop diagnoses, treats, or monitors anything.

Honest limits

What AuDHD Loop is not.

AuDHD Loop is “a personal wellness and journaling tool, not a diagnostic device, treatment plan, crisis service, or medical record.” It does not diagnose autism or ADHD, it senses and monitors nothing, and the stance is plain: stims are logged without shame.

Questions, answered honestly

Before you download AuDHD Loop

What is AuDHD?
The community’s word for being both autistic and ADHD — two co-occurring diagnoses, one lived experience. It is not itself a diagnosis. Our full explainer: what is AuDHD?
Does it monitor me?
No. It records what you choose to write, and nothing else — it does not sense, detect, or monitor anything, and its App Store privacy label states that the developer does not collect any data from this app.
Does it try to reduce or stop stimming?
That is not what it is for. Stims are valid self-regulation, and the app logs them without shame — it captures stims, sensory moments, energy, and what helped. Whatever you note as helping sits in your journal for your own reasons, on your own terms.
Who is it for?
Adults. AuDHD Loop is a private self-regulation journal for adults; it is not positioned for children or teens.
Where does my journal live?
On your device. AuDHD Loop stores your journal on device.
Can I share it with my therapist?
If you want to: Pro’s weekly digest export produces a self-report summary you can choose to bring to a session. It is your record of your week — not a clinical record, and not an assessment.
What stays free?
Core logging, energy-grouped tasks, seeded strategies, three supported sessions each calendar week, and your first personal observation. No account is required.
What does Pro add?
All transparent observations, unlimited supported sessions, custom strategies, and a weekly CSV you choose whether to save or share. The app shows Apple’s current local price and any trial you are eligible for before purchase.
Is it a diagnostic or medical tool?
No. AuDHD Loop is a personal wellness and journaling tool, not a diagnostic device, treatment plan, crisis service, or medical record.
