The ADHD Productivity Toolkit on Mac: Pairing FLine with Other Apps

Keywords: Mac Productivity, ADHD Toolkit, App Combo, FLine, Workflow Optimization

ADHD productivity is rarely sustained by a single tool but rather by an "ecosystem." As a power Mac user, I've summarized a "Golden Triangle" workflow centered around FLine.

1. Focused Reading: FLine + Immersive Reader

When reading long articles in a browser:

• Combo: Turn on Safari/Chrome Reader Mode (remove ads) -> Launch FLine.
• Effect: Minimalist text combined with FLine's guide creates a Kindle-like immersion but with smoother interaction.

2. Time Management: FLine + PaceTimer

• PaceTimer handles macro time control (how long until break).
• FLine handles micro attention maintenance (focusing on the current line).
• Scenario: Set a 25-minute Pomodoro, start FLine to process docs. PaceTimer's color shifts remind you of time passing peripherally, while FLine ensures your eyes stay on center screen.

3. Task Breakdown: FLine + To-Do List (Things/TickTick)

• Pain Point: Staring blankly at a long To-Do List, paralyzed by choice.
• FLine Usage: Turn on FLine's "Focus Mask."
• Effect: Use the mask to reveal only the very first task. Force yourself to ignore the 10 items below and focus solely on the one thing in front of you.

Summary

Good tool combinations create a 1+1>2 effect. FLine's lightweight nature allows it to embed perfectly into any workflow, becoming that critical piece in your Mac productivity puzzle.
