### 4/5 — I like it but…

*2026-08-09, version 4.86*

It says that the cub may start to evolve as you get higher levels unlocked.  I’m on level 45 and that has yet to happen.  Also, they need to add new outfit choices for the cub to wear and change items in her room.  It’s getting boring because I have all these “bamboo points” and can’t really buy much because I’ve bought everything.  Please add new things.

### 3/5 — Very good

*2026-07-13*

I am on the free plan in the app and have so far found it very helpful, would recommend to others !

### 2/5 — Streak restart

*2026-04-05, version 4.79*

My teen enjoyed the the app but missed one day and had the streak restart. There needs to be some leniency. This caused a meltdown and a negative thought process spiral. ADHD is a real disorder and making products without understanding how  the disorder works is harmful. We’ll be deleting.

### 4/5 — Good but…

*2026-04-01, version 4.78*

So i got into the game and it fine at first
But then you had to pay someone pls fix that

### 2/5 — Cute but not worth the purchase

*2026-03-28, version 4.78*

I keep buying items for the room and the ones bought are not showing up I have plants floating in midair because the desk I purchased doesn’t appear. The idea is cute but needs more mods to fix bugs

### 4/5 — Good but could use some fixing

*2026-03-06*

I used this app for my ADHD, and so far I have stuck with the plan❤️‍🔥. A few things I will say is some bugs. I would make a new goal and it will appear but next time I check it, there’s multiple of them on my screen… I never putted multiple, I just closed the app and open it again but still a bit annoying you have to do that. Mabye make the avatar shop free… they well I have any options for the free plan, I can’t afford the subscription I’m under 18 therefore don’t have a wallet set. So maybe make at least more items free. Over all this is a good app. I recommend if you wanna stay more organized in your life, good for Reminders just make sure you have notifications on😅

### 3/5 — Price

*2026-01-10, version 4.74*

Ok I saw all the great reviews and I wanted to try it I would have given it a higher score but every self care app I get I have to pay all I want is a free self care app because I’m broke.

### 3/5 — Please fix this app

*2025-11-24, version 4.71*

This app is so great, when it’s working. It worked for two weeks with no problems and now almost every other day there’s a problem with my decorations, bamboo, or goals getting deleted. I’d love to give this app 5 stars if it didn’t constantly glitch out. It doesn’t save any of my mood logs either. Please fix this.

### 4/5 — It was okay

*2025-11-24*

This app was working great until I lost my data and the migration did not work. Who can I email? I’ve been at a higher level abs restarting is bothersome.

### 4/5 — So cute and good but..

*2025-11-23, version 4.71*

A tad buggy, but I can tell the Devs really care so I bet in a year it’ll over come competition bc better graphics and etc.

### 5/5 — slay

*2025-11-06, version 4.66*

slay

### 5/5 — I love it

*2025-11-04*

I love this app because it’s not just about a tracker but there is a cub that u can dress up and make a room and u make it with bamboos so u do tasks then u get bamboos then u spend ur on the cub 😁

### 1/5 — Not Helpful

*2026-07-17, version 4.85*

I have the App and It wasn't really helping me at all and I have ADHD and I tried to get a chance but it didn't work

### 1/5 — 😭

*2026-06-29*

I had it on my old iPad and it was amazing but now it is so laggy (and that’s not because of my iPad) that you can’t even use it

### 1/5 — Doesnt work??

*2026-06-26, version 4.83*

As soon as i downloaded the app didint work i was stuck in a room needing to buy stuff with bamboo i didint even have. i couldn’t even leave that screen it was so bad

### 1/5 — Tricks you to complete a long survey and then paywall

*2026-06-23, version 4.83*

and then paywall

### 1/5 — Stuck

*2026-06-22, version 4.83*

Can't get past the start where it wants me to pick out a bed with no money. No exit.

### 1/5 — Paying for mental health

*2026-01-23, version 4.75*

I think I would love this app. The only problem is, you have to pay to get anything. Like no features are free. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2025-12-02, version 4.72*

After a very long time of using the app, all of the sudden it just stopped working & all of my progress has disappeared. Horrible. Don’t waste your money 😡

### 1/5 — Have to pay😭

*2025-10-29, version 4.66*

I’m broke and depressed.😔

### 1/5 — Great but...

*2025-08-20*

Great beginning and all of that but they could have mentioned that there has to be payment.👎🏼

### 1/5 — have to pay to use

*2025-07-29, version 4.66*

Ridiculous to make the whole app a thing you need to pay for. Your audience is mainly mentally ill people, why make them pay for a simple app?

### 5/5 — ❤️

I love my cub so muck

### 5/5 — Fun and helps

*2026-02-12, version 4.76*

The panda you look after is cute and it helps with keeping track of your daily goals for the day. I’m still new at this but so far it’s been cool.

### 5/5 — Peaceful app

*2026-01-30, version 4.75*

This app brings so much peace. I could never commit to a mental health app until my friend introduced me to this app.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-11-30, version 4.72*

I love it my cub is so nice I'm so amazed

### 5/5 — I had one bug

*2025-11-30, version 4.72*

I had one problem. When I would try to add my own goal, it would not add when I would press add. So I emailed them and told them what happened, and they ask for a screen recording almost the same day, or it was the next day. Once they responded, I emailed them a screen recording. 2 to 3 days later, they responded and said, can you give me your username, your pet's name, your I O s update iPhone series, time zone, aka central and all that. And your state. After I sent them that, they said to try and add a goal again and it worked so 5 stars for immediate response and immediate help. They contacted their team members and immediately fixed the bug. I love this app 5 Stars!🩵🖤🩷🖤💜🖤🧡

### 5/5 — Omg

*2025-11-26, version 4.71*

This app is amazing it helps me be way organized and helps me with eating bc I don’t eat and it helps me with my mood
