Love the swiping

Nice app. The task swiping is fun. Not seen that before. Makes my ADHD brain think differently, which is great. Would like routines but it says that is coming soon, so happy to wait.

Response from developer

Hi there, Thanks for your review. Really good to hear you are enjoying the app. And... Yes. The routines function is coming very soon!! Thanks, Team Addie.

Poor Support

I was keen to try the app functions; set up a few tasks and then noticed timezone issues impacted its calendar. That’s when the frustration began with its AI Help Bot. So I went exploring through the app in search of what I needed, without success. Immediately cancelled subscription - not worth the stress and poor support.

Addie

I like the format but it’s very, very expensive for the parts I use. And I realised today that tasks with a specified date for completion, if not completed that day, sometimes vanish without a trace. No amount of tinkering with filters will bring them back. My heart has sunk because I was relying on this to remember and there will be tasks that have simply gone undone and will stay that way until I’m rumbled

Unfortunately pay guarded

Requires subscription which is disappointing. I understand why though- paying developers. Perhaps they could offer a completely free version to help more people interact with the app as there is only one other rating.

Response from developer

Hi there, Thanks for the feedback. We do offer a 7-day free trial that can be cancelled at any time. We send you an email reminder after 6 days, and if you forget to cancel we'll refund you (in full) at any time. Hope this helps. Thanks, Phil (CEO @ Addie)

Potential

I think the Home Screen is very enticing and the deck of cards layout is really positive for sorting through your tasks. I think trackers should be more visible so you don’t have to scroll to get to them and I also think at the price point, I would want some kind of calendar feature to justify it. I think it would also be positive to be able to add your own trackers.

I have been going through all the productivity apps and I’m not actually adverse to paying for them, but I feel in this case it doesn’t tick enough boxes for me to do so. There also isn’t a road map in regards to future updates, and everything I have found is 6months+ old.

Response from developer

Hi there, Thanks for the feedback. We agree the trackers need to be signposted/ integrate better, and we're working on this. In our roadmap, we're also planning to integrate with smart devices, etc, so keep an eye out for this too. The calendar function is 100% coming in the next major rollout. If you have any more ideas please email me - admin@addieapp.com Thanks, Phil (CEO @ Addie)

Scam

Awful, I payed for a subscription and wanted the free trial so cancelled it before the free trial was over but I haven’t got my money back. I tried to contact them by email and phone number but none have responded. The app doesn’t even work after I payed for it! It’s awful and I’m trying to get my money back 😭 please don’t pay for this app 😭

Potential

This app has a lot of potential; I love the concept! Unfortunately it seems like there are still some bugs to work out. I put all my tasks in for the day but when I reopened the app, they were all gone but one.

I’ll hang onto it and keep an eye open for updates. I really do look forward to using this app when it’s finished! At that time I’m sure I’ll be able to leave a 5 star review.

Great app

Having been diagnosed with combined type ADHD a few months ago, this app contains everything I had separate apps for so I can organise my tasks and things in one place,

The only downside is that, I have music playing near enough constantly, the sound that plays when you complete a task stops the music and I have to restart it, otherwise this app has been helping me a lot the past week, worth the subscription.

Hi there, Thanks for your feedback. This issue should have been resolved in the last update, but if it still persists please drop me an email and I'll see what can be done - admin@addieapp.com Thanks, Phil (CEO @ Addie)

Not for me

Cute but too expensive, similar and cheaper options available elsewhere

Response from developer

Lots of positives but needs some improvements

Firstly I really enjoyed using Addie when I had a subscription. I love the gamification concept and the use of ML to generate subtasks, estimate time etc. It is certainly built with ADHD in mind, unlike some other apps which target vulnerable ADHDers but are not useful for us

It was really good for me to create a big task (or even just “before bed tasks”) and fire in subtasks and it would help me stay focussed on the task. It was also helpful to see how long I estimate (or underestimate) tasks to take.

The only downside is the cost of the subscription. The app is a bit buggy and doesn’t have features advanced enough to justify £10 per month. I’ve got enough other vital subscriptions so I just couldn’t justify it. I appreciate app developers and employees need to be paid however so I might suggest you have a good fremium version, or have ads or partnerships to lower the cost of subscription or work on more advanced features so people are happy to pay for it.
