To others here, please avoid this app, there are too many red flags about it.
The testimonials on the site [1] are superficial. I only saw short term ones.
Most people with ADHD have a track record of starting new things, being extremely enthusiastic only for it to fizzle out in a few weeks.
Case in point Adam says: "I'm recently diagnosed so it's really exiting..."
This is on the science page [2]:
"Studies have shown that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is effective in helping to treat those with ADHD."
It's the only actual science quote on there. It's a platitude if I've ever seen one.
CBT does work. However how is this app comparable to CBT? It's not and it doesn't explain any of it.
The whole site is also extremely vague and light on detail. No mention on the kind of exercises, why they work and how they work. The screenshots on the playstore page [3] had more info than the site.
As other mentioned the opt-out is indeed predatory given the target audience.
Lastly, there are many great resources online for ADHD:
A community for ADHD go to: https://forums.howtoadhd.com/ https://forums.howtoadhd.com/
podcasts:
https://drhallowell.com/listen/podcast/ https://drhallowell.com/listen/podcast/
https://www.fasterthannormal.com/ https://www.fasterthannormal.com/
All in all, I'll avoid this app till I hear favorable things from the community.
