I started using the hourly chime on my wrist watch and found it helps ground me. The trouble is the chime can be disruptive at night, and it’s tedious to turn it on and off every day. I’m hoping to find a clock (not a wrist watch)-- of decent build quality-- with an adjustable chime (volume and active window). I don’t care if the clock mechanisms are mechanical or not, so long as the chime is pleasant.
I’m struggling to get satisfying web-search results, but I thought others with ADHD may already have a similar solution. Anyone have a clock with a chime you’d recommend?
You could “build your own”. Use home assistant to play music or a sound bite on smart speakers around your house. Or even just have it send you a notification. Home assistant can run on pretty much anything as well.
Good idea. I have HA running on an old laptop. If I had a smart speaker, I’d be tinkering on this now. If I can find one that meets my particularities, I might go this route. Thanks for the suggestion!
Sure thing! There’s a bunch of options there, like having it flash the lights of the room you’re in, ring your doorbell, send you a text or notification, etc.
