First day

Good so far

Routine is key!

This app has helped me keep a routine to help me better focus on myself. I like how I can use a scale to show my mood and make it easy to track my progress. If I could give this app 10 stars I would.

SCAM

This is a full blown scam it charges me $60 every year - will not let me login in cancel and every time I request to reset my password to try and login and cancel it says reset login is expired the second it sends .

I also can’t cancel via Apple subscriptions tab .

Don’t download this app .

From one ADHDer to another: Predatory business model toward ppl they are trying to “help”

The app is ok… if you have the bandwidth to remember to use it. It claims to help people with ADHD manage their moods, habits, etc. However, it was not something useful enough to use often so I forgot about it—until auto renewal time. I feel so duped. No reminders about auto renewal—just close to a hundred bucks taken from my account. (The same company offers something called Walking Yoga. Total scam and that one is ANNUAL AUTO RENEWAL.) I immediately reached out for a refund and they said, no refund because “the renewal was processed correctly”. They did cancel future subscription though. Thanks a lot. Do NOT get this app unless you know you won’t get tricked into auto-subscribe. Definitely NOT WORTH THE PRICE for me no matter what since the app wasn’t effective, Effecto.

Response from developer

We understand how frustrating this feels. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled in advance, and reminders aren’t sent separately. For refund requests, our policy is based on successful renewal processing. If you have further questions, please email help@effecto.app so our team can review your case in detail.

Scam

Scam app. Do not use. I canceled during the trial and they are continuing to charge my account. I have no hope to get my money back but have asked for them to stop. The company is in Lithuania. Beware of this app. It’s a scam. Apple needs to shut it down.

Cancellation

I don’t see any option to cancel my unuseful subscription

THIS APP IS A FRAUD

Renews subscription automatically EVEN WHEN YOU CANCEL. I HAD TO BLOCK MY CARD FOR THEM TO STOP BILLING ME !!! Worst app ever and I am suing if I don’t obtain refund quickly. You have three days to contact me.

Response from developer

We understand how upsetting this is. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled in advance; if you already canceled but were still billed, please email help@effecto.app with your order details. Our team will investigate your account and resolve this privately.

Auto renewal after trial

Agree with other reviewers.
The website doesn’t sent email to print that trial period is over.
Anyways subscription is way too expensive and overpriced for the content available.
After going through the content, I can see same information is easily available for free online.
So I would not recommend this to anyone.
Waste of hard earned money!
I want it discontinue this subscription but cannot do it easily through my account as cannot see the option to unsubscribe and discontinue.

Disappointing App

This app is not easy to unsubscribe to. I haven’t used this app for a very long time, I had deleted it because I found it ineffective and I believed I had managed to unsubscribe from it after a lot of effort. It turns out I hadn’t, and because I couldn’t see it on my App Store subscriptions I didn’t realise (apparently it was done through stripe pay??) but as well as this, they give you no sign you’re still subscribed, or that a payment is upcoming. I don’t believe this is an ADHD friendly app, it should be straightforward to manage. I only realised I was subscribed still when money was taken from my account and I opened my emails and saw one from effecto that hadn’t even made it clear that had happened, it was just an email telling me how to get the most from the app which I thought strange because I never received any others from them. They do not give you your money back and claim this is because it is a “digital subscription” they are unable to issue refunds which I think is ridiculous, as I have experienced other apps remedy these things straight away. I believe these people are taking advantage of the difficulties they claim to support.

Beware of the subscription that is hidden and no way to easily cancel

Read the previous reviews, I wish I did. Nowhere it said this was a subscription- double the amount from the initial 1 month. It does not show up in your active apple subscriptions too for whatever reason- the only way to see it - your bank statements and the inly way to cancel - emails to their customer support. $39/month is ridiculous for what it is.

SCAM

Read previous review mine is the same. Did not even choose 7 day free trial & somehow they got their dirty paws into my bank checking acct!!!! I do not have ADHD I was looking at it for fitness & health. They have been reported to my bank & PayPal

Frauduleux

Ce n’est pas ce que ça dit être . Par la suite j’ai annulé mon abonnement mais depuis on me charge des montants directement sur ma carte de crédit alors que je n’ai pas d’abonnement . La première fois qu’on m’a
Chargé on m’a dit qu’on ne pouvait pas me
Rembourser , la deuxième fois on me dit la meme chose mais curieusement lorsque je dis que je vais faire une plainte pour fraude on me rembrouse .. quel hasard ! J’ai signalé le tout . Ne vous faite pas prendre vous aussi par cette application malhonnête.

Nous comprenons à quel point cette situation est frustrante. Les abonnements se renouvellent automatiquement à moins d'être annulés à l'avance. Pour toute aide concernant des prélèvements inattendus, merci d'envoyer un email à help@effecto.app avec les détails de votre compte et de commande pour que notre équipe puisse examiner cela avec vous en privé.

Be wary

I would like to reiterate what others have said and urge others to be very cautious when using this app. I downloaded a free trial in December and cancelled it in January. I have emails to show this. Just this morning (6 months later) Effecto is still trying to take almost £180 out for walking yoga. Luckily my bank has been notified and this never went through but please be very cautious when giving this company any details.

Scam

Completely useless. This advertisement comes across with all of the buzz words. I made the mistake of purchasing without reading the reviews. If you are reading the reviews before purchase, good for you. Now, believe them. These ppl need to be ashamed of themselves for scamming ppl. There is a product, but it is completely useless for a person with ADHD and probably anyone. It is just something thrown together to avoid being accused of not having anything. I wasted my money on this. This is a horrible app. Needs to be a rating of negative 100.

Scam app

Do not install. See the plethora or reviews

Scam

I have been charged for two months with no access. I can’t even cancel because I don’t have an account. This is insane and deceptive.

Do NOT sign up!

I have been charged 3 times for my cancelled subscription. Very difficult to get response. Be very cautious giving these people your card information!

Misleading Subscription Practices

There is no unsubscribe button in the app. It feels like a deliberate subscription trap designed to make cancellation difficult for users.

Great app

Great app for health tracker.

Billing

Outvof no where they deduct my $219 !!!whh
