The familiar ADHD story

01

The notification appeared. You dismissed it.

Not on purpose. Your hand just did it. Muscle memory. You didn't even read what it said. You were in the middle of something.

02

You went back to what you were doing.

Hyperfocus activated. Time stopped existing. Twenty minutes passed in what felt like four. This is not a character flaw. It's just how your brain works.

03

The meeting started. Without you.

Someone sent "are you joining?" in Slack. Then your manager sent it. Then the whole chat went quiet in that specific way that means everyone noticed.

04

You joined 9 minutes late. Camera off.

"Sorry, lost track of time." You've said this sentence eleven times this month. You need something that doesn't ask for your attention — it takes it.

So it does. The swipe that closes the alert before you've even read it — conscious dismiss makes it stop working.

Try it

Go on — try to swipe it away.

A click does nothing now. To dismiss, you hold — one deliberate second. Long enough to make it a decision, not a reflex.

press and hold

What it does

Designed to
interrupt you.
On purpose.

01
Fullscreen takeover
Covers your entire screen. Every pixel. There is no corner to look away to. This is the point.
02
Audio alert
Makes a sound. Even with headphones. Even in deep flow state. Especially then.
03
One-click join
Detects Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Webex — and 10+ more — from your calendar. Press Join. You're in. No searching.
04
Conscious dismiss
Last time, muscle memory closed it before you'd even read it. Not this one — you hold the button (or Esc) to dismiss. One second of friction, just enough to make it a decision instead of a reflex. Optional. Also the whole point.
05
Custom timing
Alert 1, 2, 5 or 10 minutes early. Snooze if you need five more minutes to finish whatever that was.
06
Second alert at start
One nudge before it starts. Another the second it actually does — for when "I'll join in a minute" quietly becomes nine. Optional.
08
Menu bar countdown
Your next meeting is always visible in the menu bar. "Standup · 12 min." No opening Calendar. No hunting for the time. Just glance up.
09
Sarcastic mode
"Time to pretend you care about this standup." Optional. But once you turn it on, you'll never turn it off.

I built Minute Left to stop apologizing for missing calls while staring at my screen. And to kill that constant anxiety of being late, I put the countdown right in the menu bar.

Questions

Things people
actually ask.

Will macOS complain about the app?
No. It's signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple — double-click and it opens, same as anything from the App Store. No right-click dance, no "unidentified developer" scare.
Does it work with Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar?
Yes. Minute Left reads from your macOS Calendar app, which syncs with Google, Outlook, and iCloud. If it's in your calendar, Minute Left finds it. If it's not in your calendar, that's a you problem.
Will it join meetings automatically?
No. It finds the link and shows you a button. You still have to click it. We can't do everything.
Which meeting apps does Join work with?
Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Webex, Whereby, Jitsi, Discord, GoToMeeting, and more — if there's a meeting link in your calendar event, Minute Left usually finds it. And even when it doesn't recognize the service, the alert still fires for every meeting, link or not. You just won't miss it.
Does it run in the background all the time?
Yes. It lives in your menu bar and watches your calendar. Uses almost no resources — you won't notice it until you absolutely need to.
How does the free trial work?
Download and install — you just leave your email, no credit card. You get 7 full days with every feature and every theme. On day 8 the alerts stop firing. You'll notice immediately. Open the app, click "Unlock", and you'll go through a secure $10 one-time checkout (handled by Paddle). Pay once, alerts come back, done forever.
Do I ever have to pay again?
No. It's one-time — pay once, use forever, no subscription. Every update and new theme for this version is free. If we ever ship a major new version, current owners get it at a steep discount — but the app you bought keeps working regardless.

Stop missing
your meetings.
