April 1, 2026· 4 min read

Dubbii: the body‑doubling app was created by a British couple who had already built a massive online presence long before the app existed.

Roxanne Emery, better known as RØRY, is a singer and songwriter who shared that she was diagnosed with ADHD in 2021. Richard Pink is neurotypical, a strong communicator, and Rox's partner in both life and this project.

Together, they launched ADHD Love, a brand focused on:

  • making ADHD easier to understand
  • reducing shame and stigma
  • helping couples better navigate ADHD in relationships

Their TikTok account, @adhd_love already crossed 1 million followers.

They also run a podcast, Late Bloomers, with its own TikTok account @late.bloomers.pod.

In 2023, they launched dubbii, a productivity app based on body doubling, a technique many people with ADHD use to help them start tasks by having another person present, either in real life or virtually.

Today, the app has 6K downloads and $20K in revenue.

The body‑doubling videos inside the app are recorded by Rich and Rox themselves.

The app's TikTok account has been active since 2023. They took a break in November 2024 and came back in February 2025.

They have 3 formats consistently on rotation:

#1 – Mini‑sketches about everyday ADHD struggles

These are made of short scenes where they act out relatable moments of procrastination, overwhelm, or difficulty starting tasks.

"The 5 minute lie" → 319.3K views

#2 – POVs as users of the app

They simulate what it feels like to use dubbii.

"Live body doubling" → 501.7K views

#3 – Direct, honest videos speaking to the audience

These may not always go viral, but they tend to create the strongest engagement.

"dubbii nudges" → 287.2K views, 710 comments

"How can we help?" → 212.9K views, 1,262 comments

There is no real separation between the creators, the community, and the product. They are all part of the same story.
