Designed for ADHD. Works for everyone.

The work is done. You're still not sharing it.

It's not about quality. For many people with ADHD, the gap between finished and shared is one of the hardest to cross. And it has nothing to do with whether the work is ready.

Loops is a daily coaching app for people with ADHD. It breaks the last step into something small enough to do, coaching for the threshold moment, and, if you want it, one safe person on your side while you cross it.

Free for 7 days. No complicated setup. On iOS for now.

How Loops helps

A daily system for the step between finished and actually out there.

Most support for creative work focuses on making. Finishing. Getting to done. The step that follows, sharing, publishing, sending, is treated as obvious. For ADHD brains, it often isn't.

Loops gives you specific sharing actions each day, breaks the final step into something small enough to start, and coaches you through the moment when the work keeps nearly going out and then not. Not a motivation tool. A threshold-crossing tool.

Then it adds the part most apps leave out. One person who sees you doing it. More on that just below.

); /* ---------------- Recognition (6 cards) ---------------- */ const SHR_RECOGNITION = [ "The work is done. Or nearly done. It's been nearly done for a while now.", "You've written the caption. You've deleted the caption. You've written it again.", "You've told yourself you'll share it when it's a bit more polished. That was three months ago.", "One negative comment, or even the thought of one, can make the whole thing feel not worth sharing.", "You've shared things before. The response wasn't what you hoped for. Now starting feels harder, not easier.", "You know the work is good enough. Some part of you also can't quite believe that.", ]; const ShrRecognition = () => (
Does any of this sound familiar?

You're not alone in this.

These are the patterns people with ADHD describe most often when it comes to sharing their work.

{SHR_RECOGNITION.map((t, i) => (

{t}

This isn't about the quality of the work. It's about a very specific kind of stuck that ADHD creates at the very end of the process.

); /* ---------------- Why it keeps happening (5 patterns) ---------------- */ const SHR_PATTERNS = [ { title: "Perfectionism as a permanent shield", body: "As long as the work isn't shared, it can't be criticised. The brain knows this. Not sharing keeps the work safe indefinitely. Perfectionism isn't just a quality standard. For ADHD brains, it's also a protection mechanism that can persist long after the work is genuinely ready." }, { title: "Rejection sensitivity at the threshold", body: "For many people with ADHD, the anticipation of negative feedback feels as painful as the feedback itself. ADHD is associated with heightened rejection sensitivity: the brain's response to perceived criticism is more intense than average, and more likely to feel personal. This makes the moment of sharing disproportionately high-stakes." }, { title: "Motivational decay near the finish line", body: "By the time the work is nearly done, the excitement that made it possible has moved on. ADHD motivation is driven by novelty and interest. Completing and sharing work is neither novel nor interesting. Without the original dopamine, the push to cross the final threshold simply isn't there." }, { title: "The logistics of sharing", body: "Publishing, formatting, posting, writing the description: these are exactly the kind of sequential organisational tasks ADHD makes hardest. Each step in the sharing process requires sustained working memory and follow-through. Without external structure, completed projects sit invisible not from fear but from the plain difficulty of executing the final steps." }, { title: "The shame-reset spiral", body: "Each thing that stays in the folder becomes evidence that makes the next one harder to share. Past projects that weren't shared, past shares that didn't land well, past decisions to do it later: these accumulate into a backdrop that makes every new sharing decision feel heavier than the last." }, ]; const ShrWhyItHappens = () => (
Understanding the pattern

It's not fear of failure. It's what ADHD does to the last step specifically.

Sharing work is a distinct failure point from making it. It has its own mechanisms and it needs its own support. Understanding them changes what getting unstuck looks like.

Loops is designed to make the sharing step small enough, specific enough, and supported enough to actually happen.

); /* ---------------- Unique section: the good-enough-to-share frame ---------------- */ const ShrReframe = () => (
The shift that changes what sharing actually requires

There is no version of the work that will feel completely ready. That's not how sharing works.

The feeling of "not quite ready" is not a quality signal. It's a threshold signal. It means the brain is anticipating exposure, not identifying a genuine flaw that needs fixing. Waiting for the feeling to pass before sharing is waiting for something that, for ADHD brains in particular, often doesn't pass on its own.

The shift that helps is redefining the question. Not "is it ready?" but "is it good enough to share?" These are different standards. Ready implies a state of completion that satisfies the inner critic. Good enough to share implies a bar the work has already cleared, and the decision becomes structural rather than qualitative.

The part most apps miss

Brains finish for people, not for apps.

Here's the strange part: the work can sit finished for months precisely because sharing means being seen, and being seen is the whole fear. Alone with it, there's no threshold to cross and no one to cross it for.

So Loops adds the one thing that reliably keeps ADHD brains going, and for this step in particular, a safe one. Another person.

You choose one person you trust, someone whose opinion feels safe. When you close a loop, they see it. They are not the crowd you're afraid of. They're the one person who's simply glad you're getting it out there. You decide exactly what they can see, and you can change it any time.

This is the step most people skip with other apps. It's also the one that makes Loops work.

You can start on your own if you'd rather. It still works. It just works better when someone can see you.

On a Crew plan you can choose more than one." }, { t: "Get sharing actions today", b: "Each day, Loops gives you specific, small actions toward shared. Write the description. Choose the platform.

Loops gives you a calm, practical next step that makes the share possible without requiring certainty that it will land well." }, { t: "Get it out there", b: "Not perfectly launched.

You don't have to add one to start, but it's the part that makes Loops work, so we'll gently encourage it when you're ready. On a Crew plan it can be more than one: your people." }, { q: "How does Loops help with sharing work if you have ADHD?", a: "It breaks the sharing step into one specific daily action small enough to be possible even on a high-anxiety day. It also coaches you through the threshold moment when the work keeps almost going out and then doesn't." }, { q: "Why do people with ADHD struggle to share work even when it's finished?", a: "The barriers are specific. Perfectionism protects unshared work from judgement indefinitely. Rejection sensitivity makes the anticipation of negative feedback disproportionately intense. Motivational decay means the excitement that drove the project is gone by the time sharing is required. And the logistics of publishing are precisely the kind of sequential organisational tasks ADHD makes hardest." }, { q: "Do I need an ADHD diagnosis to use Loops?", a: "No. Loops is designed first for people with ADHD but doesn't require a formal diagnosis. If the experiences described here feel familiar, Loops is built for you." }, { q: "What is rejection sensitive dysphoria and how does it affect sharing?", a: "Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is the intense emotional response to perceived criticism or rejection that many people with ADHD experience. In sharing contexts, it means the anticipation of negative feedback can feel as painful as the feedback itself, making the decision to share feel disproportionately high-stakes. If this resonates significantly, it's worth discussing with a GP or ADHD specialist." }, { q: "What if the work genuinely isn't ready?", a: "Loops can help you identify what \u201Cready\u201D actually means for this specific piece: a bounded, specific endpoint rather than an open-ended standard. If there's a genuine edit needed, that's a daily action too. The goal is a defined finish line, not indefinite improvement." }, { q: "What if I miss several days?", a: "That's built into the design. Loops doesn't treat a missed week as a reason to start over. The next daily action is still there, still specific, still aimed at the same share." }, { q: "Is Loops available in the UK?", a: "Yes.
