• Simple View: distraction-free interface for pure focus

Ratings and reviews

Excellent app with the ability to store and plan tasks at both simplified and highly detailed levels. Easy to break tasks down into categories, and to apply filters so you don't get overwhelmed. I love the recurring task feature, it takes a lot of the executive functioning effort out of routine, regular jobs.

Brilliant app! The ability to have a simplified view helps things feel manageable. If you don't know where or how to start, the AI help works very well. Thank you for changing my life and giving me the ability to organise tasks how it best suits me, and then rewarding by 'growing' a pet 😊 Highly recommend! 👌

I've only just started with this, but it's been great so far! My little red panda Firefox is adorable, and the creator (find their group on facebook) seems genuinely into making an app that actually works for ADHDers, as opposed to this being another 'Oh a planner will totally fix you' moment.
