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.

Hi there, Thanks so much for your feedback. We've come a long way in recent months so would love to give you the opportunity to try the app again. Please email and I'll sort this for you - admin@addieapp.com Thanks, Phil (CEO @ Addie)

Addie has become my phone based best friend!

I had heard Laura (Addie Community Manager) talking about it on TikTok and had eagerly anticipated it being available so as soon as it was I downloaded it for the free trial. This is my one minor negative, because I downloaded it and then promptly didn’t use it until the free trial was almost ending 🙈 but I appreciate a longer free trial may not make commercial sense. Laura had done such a good job of promoting Addie and it was significantly cheaper for a year than other adhd apps so I took the plunge and paid for the annual subscription.

It’s love. Addie feels like a adhd cheerleader in my pocket, and I find myself raving about it to anyone who will listen. I’m very excited by the upcoming new features, and I know I’d be lost with Addie now.

Hi there, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We've made some huge updates in recent months, so I'd love to hear your thoughts again. Please drop me an email - admin@addieapp.com Thanks, Phil (CEO @ Addie)

Great but unusable

Downloaded today and sadly ready to delete it already. It’s a great idea but is slow and you can’t access the buttons you need as they don’t all fit on the page and the app doesn’t scroll. For example I can’t press the time button when setting a date and time in tasks so it always sets it at the time I enter the task and trying to set custom repeats you can only see up till Wednesday and then the buttons are inaccessible.

Hi there, Sorry to hear that you are having issues with the app. We'd love to resolve them for you. Can you email me and I'll take a closer look for you - admin@addieapp.com Thanks, Phil (CEO @ Addie)

fantastic!!!

ignore the bad reviews, this team clearly worked hard to fix up the app because I haven't had a single issue. diagnosed at age 5 and now 26, this app is one of the best to actually help with my executive dysfunction instead of just staring at a calendar. love it!!!

Hello! Reading your lovely comments has really made my day. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts. Your support and friendship mean so much, and we're just so happy you find the app to be so helpful. Thanks again!

Great idea but doesn’t work

Downloaded the first day it came out. It’s been nothing but issues. They might fix one thing but then makes the rest of the app completely unusable. I’ve had a support ticket for 2 months and they just don’t respond anymore. Could never pay something that is so unusable.

Hi there. Huge apologies for what sounds like a frustrating experience from start to finish. There's no good reason to have kept you waiting so long to have your issues resolved. I can't apologise enough. If you'd like to email us at hello@addieapp.com with some more details of your issues, I'd like to personally ensure we do everything we can to improve your experience. My apologies again and I hope to hear from you again soon.

Doesn’t work

It’s just another app that claims to help by making to do lists fun but in reality you have to spend time filling it in, it’s reliant on you remembering to set tasks etc and checking it over and over. It also capitalises on the adhd trait of impulsive spending by making you do a weeks free trial where it can count on you forgetting and then suddenly playing for a years worth of something you won’t use past the first 2 days. I added an extra star because the art is cute and the app is colourful.

Great idea but way too buggy

I love the idea but the app is full of bugs (possibly due to recent iOS update?). Giving me a black screen, flashing, or just no response whatsoever.

Boring and basic

Super basic and boring daily planner app that for some reason costs $15 a month. Not tailored to ADHD at all, just a daily planning app that’s more basic than the free options.

Why?

I just don’t understand why this needs to be so expensive? It’s an excellent idea but 80 quid a year just makes it not worth it

Not free at all!

Very misleading. States app is free with in app purchases. I registered and verified email then was taken to ‘choose your package’ page.
Only free for 7 days then either £10/month or £80 year!
Cancel in your free trial if you want….yeah cos that’s something that people with ADHD will remember/bother to do!!
Deleted straight away.
Really….do better.
