The timing adjustment is great!

This is similar to another app I have, but the fact that it starts eating into the available time left for later tasks when you take too long on thecurrent one is

(a) a major motivator to stick to my time estimate and (

b) still get me out the door on time when I don’t.

Thank you, Brilli!

ALMOST perfect, glitch found with suggestions made. Actually SO helpful for ADHD, shockingly!!

I love this app, it helps a ton for routines as someone who has ADHD. It’s the ONLY tool that I have consistently used and gives me a visual idea of how long it’ll take me to get ready. I learned this from Jessica @HowToADHD, and it’s fantastic ❤️ I pay for it yearly and it’s worth every penny.

NOTICED GLITCH:

Another person mentioned it, but if you try to swipe to switch order of your items in the current routine.. they get stuck on top of each other or the next one disappears altogether until you swipe the current one away.

I have a few suggestions, though. I emailed the developer, but they didn’t get back:

1. Give different tone options for the reminders. The standard one triggers rage in me and I have to mute it, which defeats the purpose of it.

2. Give us the ability to edit the end time while routine is already started.

3. Give the ability to remove steps of the routine after already started without switching the order around to put the one you want to remove at the front.

4. Create more intrusive notifications on the reminders of the routine scheduled to start. Maybe create a way for it to add an alarm on your phone.

5. Have the app retain history of how long you have taken on a task in the past and suggest a new timing to make more efficient. Have the suggestion be a range of timing, suggest an average or longest time!

NEEDS A BUG FIX!!!

This app is expensive and I’d expect the developers to be much more on top of it than they are, or perhaps it’s a dying app and I need to find an alternative? If you try and contact them with an issue they never reply or fix the issue so I’m trying this way. One of my routines the last task on it keeps freezing, you can’t swipe it to complete it and pausing / unpausing doesn’t reset it. The only way to complete the task and finish the routine is to quit the app and return but that’s useless because it messes up all your timing. It’s very frustrating, PLEASE FIX IT ASAP.

Brili helped me keep my job!

Love this app! I am very time blind and that has affected me in so many ways including being on time to basically everywhere, including work. One day i was told by HR if I don’t arrive on time I am going to be cut and I didn’t want that so I downloaded Brili. I was able to arrive on time and shared it with another coworker who was struggling with the schedule! I didn’t get cut, and when I eventually left that job I left on very good terms. Me helping myself also seemed to help others!

I hope Brili comes to the Apple Watch someday. I’d love to use it on there to really track my time!

Agile and helpful

I’ve been using this app for a couple years and I like that I can set up different routines and move things around as needed. The problem right now (I don’t see how to report it), is when I swipe a task to the right in order to postpone it, the icon gets stuck on top of the next task icon, making it hard to keep track.

Was good, now is a brick

Frustrating with withdrawn features. The app has to be onscreen for the notifications and sounds to come through. This was not the case for over a year that the app helped me to stay on track. Now I spend most of my time trying to figure out a solution. I’ve reached out to Brili with no response. Thanks for the early Christmas coals, Brili!😞

RECENTLY FAILED

Used to be excellent provide you didn’t have too many routines. Used for exercise routines you’re tapped on the routine. It showed an individual circle on top of a whole lot of other circles that said the routine and had a time going around the circumference. When you finish that component you dragged it to the left of the next one came up well now it fails

It won’t strike to the left so you can’t see the new task that was part of theft. routine nor can you sign it. It’s only happened recently so I think it’s a new update. I hope they fix it. They haven’t replied when I wrote to them.

APPLE WATCH FUNCTIONALITY PLEASE

Great app but this is all it would need to be perfect

Help?

So I recently reinstalled the Brilli app onto my phone, as I found it very helpful in the past, but because of this, the app just shows me a screen to resubscribe to a plan, and doesn’t let me do anything else in the app, or close out that screen. I’m sure there’s a limited free version, but I can’t access it at all. The support email I sent bounced back, so I’m pretty bummed because I really liked this app.

Early For Work

I was suspended twice for coming to work late in the past. This app helped me from getting terminated. Years later, I applied to a new job and found myself coming in late again. My manager told me I’m a high performer and would hate for me to get in trouble just for tardiness. I bought this app again, and again it saved me. I’m clocking in early for work now. Now, instead of rushing into work to clock in on time, I’m rushing to not break my streak of clocking in early.

Adding a task

I cannot get the app to enter both a start and end time for grocery shopping. If I tap start time it flips my end time over to that space, and vice versa. It just isn't working

What’s the point

It doesn’t alert me when a routine should be started so what- it’s relying on my adhd to remember that I’m supposed to start a scheduled routine? Why would I pay for this?

What I’ve been looking for!

This is what I’ve been looking for for years! I am an adult with ADHD and no amount of lists or schedules helps me because my short term working memory is so bad I forget that I have a schedule!

The only thing that frustrates me on this app is sometimes it stops making sounds - probably something to do with my phone going into focus mode? But then I’m right back where I was - forgetting that I have a schedule.

Would also be AMAZING if it was available on Apple Watch!

Beware NO free 10 day trial

I got charged even though it said a free 10 day trial. Then customer service doesn’t respond when wanting a refund.

Inaccessible price

For what this is, the monthly subscription is ridiculous. It’s almost as much as a Spotify subscription for a timer. Can’t bring myself to pay that.

Love this app but

Have been using this app a lot but can we have a little more love put into the front end please? It has changed my life but I just it felt a little bit better to use! There are bugs like tasks notifications that keep happening even after the routine was canceled.
I would love an widget for the Apple Watch.
Or the most basic things like the screen rotating when you put the phone in landscape mode.
This app is life changing but just keep wishing it had more updates

Love this app?

I have loved this app and used it daily for almost two years now. It is a great help to keep track of my routines. The biggest problem I have encountered is sometimes it starts to lag and then it eventually becomes so slow it is impossible to use. During these times I have had to delete and reload the app and that usually fixes it. A couple times, however, all my routines are gone or they have reverted back to old routines from 6-9 months ago and the only way to resolve it (after panicking) is to go through the Brili support team. They are usually on the ball and great to work with and I get my routines back in a day or two but this last time I sent a request six days ago and haven’t heard anything, not even an auto-response saying they are looking into it. I am worried that they are no longer supporting their app. I’m sad if this is the case because I have spent hours and hours getting my routines established just to have them lost!

A usable app for ADHDers like me

I loved this app, shame I am not able to pay the subscription. I can’t afford it, that’s why the four stars.

Doesn’t sync with extra devices

If you’re going to charge $50 per year for your app, you ought to provide the ability to set a routine on one device (like an iPad or MacBook) and execute the routine on another device (like an iPhone). Instead there appears to be no way to use the same user id across multiple devices. Without that capability, this app is overpriced garbage. With that capability, it would actually be worth paying for since it’s a good idea in principle, just deployed terribly.

Having said that, the routine suggestions are top notch. I recommend making note of some of your favorite routines from this app and implementing them in another routine tracking app that is more affordable and has multi-device functionality.

Subscription model

One flaw that’s hard to ignore. The subscription model is unreasonable or outdated. It’s been the same app more or less for a long time and if nothing else I’d rather have a reasonable one time purchase option rather than an overpriced sub. It makes a good app and flips the whole vibe. One time purchase option at least I understand bills need paying.
