"HOVSTEP treats each block of time like a helicopter mission. It is both a physical clock and an app-linked timer, inspired by how a mission helicopter takes off with one purpose, completes it, and returns. The idea is to help you see a study session, assignment, or break as a single mission you dispatch and then bring home, with a beginning, middle, and end that are all visible at once."
"HOVSTEP shows time passing with a yellow hand that appears on the clock face when a mission begins, rotating once around the dial and showing how much of that block is left. It is framed as the helicopter being dispatched, flying its route, and returning when the hand lands back at 12. You are watching a mission unfold and trying to stay with it until the end."
"The object itself is a small helicopter-shaped clock that can sit on a monitor or hang on a wall. A rotor on top acts as the analog hand, a digital display shows timer information, and side buttons let you adjust volume and timer details. A center button on top turns the clock on and starts missions manually, so you can run a quick focus block without opening the app."
Modern work and study days fragment attention with multiple tabs, apps, and timers, and time often feels abstract and slippery, especially for people with ADHD or time-blindness. HOVSTEP frames each time block as a single helicopter mission, combining an app and a physical helicopter-shaped clock to make beginnings, middles, and ends visible. Users drop studies, tasks, breaks, and games into short mission slots; the app shows routines by time zone and an analog view where a yellow hand rotates once to indicate remaining time. A helicopter icon descends when a mission starts, with alarms, rotor-as-hand movement, digital timer readouts, and buttons to adjust volume, timer details, or start missions manually.
