   Managing ADHD can be challenging, but iPhone Shortcuts and features can be incredibly helpful. Here are some that might work for you:

   1. Focus Modes: Use Focus modes to minimize distractions during work or study sessions. You can customize settings to allow only certain notifications, apps, or people to reach you.

   2. Reminders App: Set reminders for tasks, deadlines, or even to take breaks. You can create lists and organize them by priority, which helps you stay on track.

   3. Shortcuts Automations: Create automations for recurring tasks, like starting a timer for focused work or triggering a playlist that helps you concentrate when you begin working.

   4. Calendar Alerts: Use the Calendar app to schedule your activities and set multiple alerts or reminders for upcoming events. Color-coding events can help you prioritize tasks visually.

   5. Notes App: Use the Notes app to jot down quick thoughts or ideas as they come to you. Organizing notes into folders can help keep everything tidy and easy to access.

   6. Voice Memos: Record your thoughts or reminders when you’re on the go. This is especially useful if you tend to forget things quickly.

   7. Screen Time: Monitor your app usage to identify which distractions take up most of your time. You can set app limits to help reduce time spent on distracting apps.

   8. Siri Shortcuts: Use Siri to quickly set reminders, send messages, or get directions without needing to dig through apps.

   9. Home Screen Organization: Arrange your app icons to keep your most-used productivity apps front and center, creating a more focused workspace.

   10. Mindfulness Apps: Utilize mindfulness or meditation apps that can help you center your thoughts and reduce anxiety. You might set reminders for daily mindfulness breaks.
