About this app

This is an app version of the free website goblin.tools, a collection of small, simple, single-task tools, mostly designed to help neurodivergent people (ADHD, Autism, OCD, BPD, all are welcome!) with tasks they find overwhelming or difficult.

Tools include
- A Magic Todo list that automatically breaks down tasks into steps
- The Formalizer that transforms your language to be more formal, sociable, concise, or many other options
- The Professor explains anything to you, with an example
- The Judge that helps with interpreting tone
- The Estimator that can guess at a timeframe for an activity
- The Compiler to take entire braindumps and turn them into actionable tasks
- The Chef, who turns a description of what ingredients and tools you have in your kitchen into a real recipe

And many more to come!

Ratings and reviews

TL;DR: Everything I could ask for. Their website is free to use, but I wanted it on my phone for convenience and the fee was more than worth it. The to-do list is excellent and easy to use, and you can use AI to break the task into parts (and delete any few which are either wrong or redundant, though I've had little issue with that). Chef didn't add a ton of extra ingredients, and you can use AI to check tone of messages (and edit them for use), so this is excellent for neurodivergent folx

Reordering tasks in the to do list is hit or miss - mostly miss. For some reason, when you add tasks one at a time, it adds the new task to the top of the list, not the bottom, and good luck being able to drag and drop to reorder items. So if you're like me and need to see the tasks in the order you mean to do them, unless you're able to plan your to do list in reverse and enter it that way from the start with 100% accuracy, the to do list is basically useless.

I have to admit. I was prepared for this to be a waste of money. It's beautiful. It breaks down tasks into such a granular and wonderful level that it removes any stumbling block my spicy brain could get stuck on. It's incredible. The fact that I can see this working so well for me actually got me a little emotional. This will literally help every aspect of my life for a few quid. Incredible. Thank you. A widget would be crazy helpful though to keep my list visible even with the app closed.
