Best Organization App
I’ve tried so many planners, task lists, and reminder apps, to help me organize, and they have never worked out for me. Amazing Marvin turned out to be just what I needed. There are so many ways to customize and setup your day depending on your preferences. If you have a lot to do, many projects, and things you need to remember - you can create a more involved system or it can be very straightforward and simple. It takes a little bit of time to get the shortcuts and strategies down. But once you do, it’s fabulous. Absolutely love this product. Thanks so much! 10/10 **The mobile app could use some updates. But overall, it works
UPDATE: Sept. 2026
The new mobile app is absolutely FANTASTIC! I was faithfully still using it all this time, but this version makes the experience so much better and accessible. I love the interface. I love Marvin’s upgrade! Well done to the team! Thanks so much for working on the app bts all this time 👏🏾👏🏾

Absolutely brilliant!
I thought the app was pretty great before, but this latest update to 1.71.0 makes the app absolutely brilliant! Everything now is more refined and easier to use, all my tasks and projects are easier to create, view, plan, schedule and track. For 25+ years I’ve been trying to find an task manager app that works like I think (I’m pretty sure I’ve downloaded, purchased, and tried every task manager on the App Store…), and this is the first time I’m completely happy with how the app functions.

New App
The new app is a complete game changer. If you previously used the app without using the desktop or web version and gave up on Marvin, you need to come back and try it again. I’ve used the desktop app for over a decade and just kind of accepted that the phone app would never be helpful. But now both apps work seamlessly. Shout out to the Marvin team for listening to their users and adjusting the app accordingly

Great on desktop and mobile
Great app for people who want customizable task and project management software. Lots of options available for those with neurodivergence.
Not low executive function friendly
This did not feel ADHD friendly at all. I tried to put in tasks but they disappeared and couldn’t put in energy level etc. cool concept but user interface is not ideal for new users who want something low effort
Completely unusable
Maybe you will have more luck but sync completely locks up the UI and makes the interface unusable. I’ve tried running sync status checks, resolving conflicts even factory resetting my todos. For now have cancels my subscription but hope they resolve cause the web app is top notch.
Charged me $240 for training and then didn’t show up
The company that runs this is horrible. For people with ADHD, the app is very elaborate. I was willing to pay for special training so I could figure out how to use it, and when I inquired, I was connected to the founder of the app, who has a website where you pay $240 for an hour of her time. I paid it and then her calendar was broken so I couldn’t book a time. When I inquired by email, someone said they would let her know and then it was radio silence from there.

Outstanding Customer Service - Thank You Branko!
Amazing Marvin is incredible! So customizable and creative. I've used a lot of habit/to-do list software and settled on Notion for a few years, but I kept running into certain points of friction. So far, it seems like Marvin can solve them! It takes time to set up and all the features can be overwhelming, but it's worth it for the customizability.
The team is extraordinarily helpful! The primary reason I took the time to write a review is that Branko in particular has given me tons of advice, replying super quickly to my questions with clear instructions that indicate a deep understanding of the product. Seems like the developers have been responsive to feature requests as well! Grateful and excited 🙌

Fantastic app, amazing customer service
-I’ve been using AM for about 6 months.
-I’ve tried loads of different project planning apps and tend to get a bit obsessive over getting my planning system perfect.
-AM is by far the best i’ve used.
-On top of that, when i got in touch with customer service i got a quick friendly reply that completely solved the issue.
-I honestly feel like they are trying to make life easier for their customers, not just in it for the money which is unusual and refreshing.
-100% would recommend if you want a central app to plan everything and anything in
Tip:
-The web interface is better than the app. I do all of the heavy editing on my laptop but use the app to add things on the fly.

Only works in web
The web version is 5/5 but the iPhone version can’t load. 1/5
Current Version of App Is Unusable
As far as I remember this is my only 1-star review. I can open the app once, and log in. After initial log in the app locks on the start animation and then crashed. Support suggested I use the web app. I have tried it but the tiny touch points are annoying. I like the service but mobile is key part of my workflow and this just does not work. Back to Todoist for me.

Great
It can be simple or super custom.
Calendar sync is a joke
Wasted 3.5 hours of hyper focus trying to get the calendar sync to either display all the items at once, or not duplicate them times 5.
Customer service never wrote back when I asked about student discount.
Zero percent chance I’m paying that much for some broken (cr)app.
For an app that’s supposed to reduce adhd stress, I am livid and near tears.
*adult word* YOU

An amazing app
Have been using it for years
The best app out there
I know the mobile app is a little behind the desktop app, but there is no app out there quite like Amazing Marvin. Grateful for it every day!
Glitch in calendar renders app almost useless
This app is clever and customisable. It doesn’t have much flexibility in its interface (you can’t fix the option buttons on tasks, raise text size on the wall, or stop the background changing colour as you mouse over, even in dark mode, which as a migraine sufferer, I find maddening - I don’t need more things moving and flashing) but it does allow a lot of customisation strategy - matrixes of more than one type, reminders, different ways of organising lists, time blocks for certain types of task (good for housework). And it has evaluation tools like time tracking so you can see if you worked your plan.
However, there is no way of copying time blocks or appointments on the calendar. It’s necessary to create each one individually, which takes ages. It’s supposed to be possible to shift-click to copy, but a (confirmed) bug has stopped this working. This has been left unfixed for months, leaving me struggling desperately with matching to-do with time, and rendering most advantages of the program (like time blocks) useless. As most computer calendars have more than one route by which you can copy, that it should have been left unfixed for so long is unbelievable (if they can’t deal with the shift-click bug they can add other options for the function). And any function being left broken is a breech of trust: what will go wrong next? It’s recommended for neurodiversity but of all people we most need reliable functionality.
All in all, my experience with this program has been a frustrating waste of time and energy. It would be wonderful if it worked as it’s supposed to. It doesn’t.

Hidden gem!
I’ve just spent hours testing over 20 different productivity tools. I was ready to give up and stick with my old tool that although wasn’t perfect was free and familiar. Then I decided to try Marvin (I tested it last year and it wasn’t quite right). OMG! It’s absolutely amazing and meets all my needs. I hope my review will encourage others to try it (or try it again if you tried it previously). Together with the desktop app, this will now be my main productivity tool.

Read the small print!
This is a very promising app, but the price is way to high. It is asking £10.39 a month! This information does not feature prominently, so before you go ahead and put all the effort in, consider if you want to pay that amount in perpetuity, or if there is other options out there. It’s a shame, because it looks good, but with that price point, I’d also ponder how long it will keep going, and what will happen to all your input if you leave/it stops.

Great App! Wish there was more development on ios apps
I have ADHD and this was the app that finally got me motivated for all of my to dos. The customization is just right, not overwhelming or underwhelming and very user friendly. Only downside is that I hate how this looks on the IPad and that’s were I prefer to do a bulk of my planning and work, and many features are difficult or impossible to access on the IPad.

Laisse à désirer
Je mets 5 étoiles pour ne pas dévaloriser le travail de l'équipe qui est énorme, l'app et le concept étant très bien, mais en revanche les"workflows" ne sont pas encore bien intégré et l'on ne retrouve pas vraiment ce qu'on a sur le site à la base pour le moment.
