Ratings and reviews

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.

This is the app for me. The app is still being developed but it's absolutely amazing. the creator is friendly and works hard. there are no ads and you can 100% use it for free but you get more options if you pay for premium. I am currently using it for free but will be upgrading, probably for Christmas. I highly recommend it.

AMAZING!! This app is brilliant! I'm in a routine now that it reminds me at 9am to plan my day, helps me remember all the things I need to do and then plan what I can do that day depending on my mental health. It's just awesome and it gets me! My fox is growing everyday (iykyk!) and I just love it 😀 😍
