## What is FocusGenie?

FocusGenie is a comprehensive ADHD management platform that teaches you about your brain, gives you the tools to optimize your life, all without breaking the bank. It’s the first and only ADHD app created by a Board-certified psychiatrist, who ALSO has ADHD.

FocusGenie was created by Dr. Sasha Hamdani (@ThePsychDoctorMD) and was built on what patients and her social media following specifically requested. EVERY detail was fine-tuned and engineered with YOU in mind. 

We refused to use ads (we don’t need more distraction!) and carefully cost-compared so that FocusGenie would be as accessible as possible. A portion of profits will go to CHADD (Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) to continue research and advocacy going forward.

At FocusGenie, we offer a 3-day free trial with two auto-renewing subscription options:
- Annual subscription at $47.99  (33% savings)
- Monthly subscription at $5.99 


Note: The listed subscription prices are for US customers. Pricing in other countries may vary and actual charges may be converted to your local currency depending on the country of residence.

### 1/5 — Talk about ADHD tax

*2026-05-29, version 2.0.1*

This app is set up to auto renew and is very difficult to cancel.  I’ve been trying to get it fully cancelled for over a year now and am still getting charged not just for myself, but for both of my kids. Considering that it’s for people with ADHD, it feels unethical to have this process be so difficult. Buyer beware!!!

### 1/5 — Not good for iOS 12

*2026-05-05, version 2.0.1*

I went on the app and after like 10 seconds of being on the app it crashed!

### 1/5 — I wanted to love it

*2026-03-25, version 2.0.1*

I wanted to love this app, but it’s just too buggy and frustrating

### 2/5 — Love the idea. Execution needs work.

*2026-02-14, version 2.0.1*

I love the idea of the app and its features. Unfortunately it is super buggy and more of a pain to use than not use.

### 2/5 — Fee Rates

*2025-06-11, version 2.0.1*

For an app to be as pronounced as claimed, I would’ve hoped I’d get to at least try it and find out if it works for me. I got through the “demo,” demonstrating how the app is used, and then it wants me to pay. Kind of a let down, just saying. I’m sorry not everyone can afford it, otherwise I think it would’ve been an efficient tool, but don’t take my word since I didn’t actually get to experience the app 🤷🏼‍♀️

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2025-06-06, version 2.0.1*

Full of bugs. Won’t even allow me to create a task.

### 5/5 — cool & all, but THE TIMER feature 😮

*2025-04-09, version 2.0.1*

So many neat features, but the timer is amazing! You can set the # of intervals, # of minutes you want to work, then the # of minutes you want ur breaks. With all its popularity, I’ve never found the perfect pomodoro timer but this is it.

### 4/5 — Learning

*2025-03-15, version 2.0.0*

I love how I can learn about different topics, generate to do lists, and track my progress, all on one app.

### 4/5 — PLEASE MAKE A TO-DO list widget!!

*2025-03-14, version 2.0.0*

I just got the app so I’m not that familiar but it’s nice so far. Take a look at the Duolingo streak widget that one is helpful for seeing if I have checked in and the Apple reminders app has a great widget for the list

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2025-03-14, version 2.0.0*

This ADHD app has everything I could ask for! I love the study/work timers, daily check-ins on habits and/or symptoms and the ability to track them over time, and the brain teasers that link to peer reviewed articles if you want to dive in even further! 
This app is well thought out and worth the purchase!
