Time blindness, goal amnesia, and constant digital distraction make everyday planning especially hard for people with ADHD. Current calendars and task apps alert when to start something, yet fail to guide the time in-between or keep attention on the goal itself. The result is missed deadlines, frustration, and diminished self-esteem.

AlarMingle is a system that pairs a physical alarm clock with a mobile app, designed to help individuals鈥攅specially those with attention challenges like ADHD鈥攂uild focus, establish routines, and improve time awareness through playful, human-centered interactions.Unlike traditional timekeeping devices, AlarMingle delivers goal-oriented reminders, gamified motivation, and distraction-free design. Key features include:

1. Time Visualization: A physical clock displays not just the current time, but also the time remaining for tasks, enhanced with visual urgency cues.
2. Humanized Reminders: Notifications appear as customizable chat-style messages with engaging characters, helping users take their tasks seriously and stay connected to their goals.
3. Distraction Control: Notifications are limited to the alarm clock, reducing mobile phone dependency and maintaining a focused environment.
4. Motivational Companions: Users earn points by maintaining focus and unlock animated "focus buddies" that appear on the clock, offering positive reinforcement.

AlarMingle reimagines time management by blending function with emotional support. It transforms routine into a relationship鈥攂etween users, their goals, and the delightful characters that guide them.
