### 5/5 — BEST ADHD PLANNER EVER!!

*2025-04-03, version 2.0*

I’ve been looking for something EXACTLY like this, so glad if found this app fr!!

### 5/5 — Very helpful ADHD app

*2025-04-03, version 2.0*

As an adhder with horrendous time blindness this app is super helpful and is much preferred over my 27 alarms that I set and end up snoozing. I love that it accounts for traffic as city driving is always unpredictable, and the point system keeps me way more accountable. I recommend !

### 5/5 — Very simple and efficient

*2025-04-03, version 2.0*

Lately is terrific, it’s very easy to use and the learning curve is minimal. I’ve quickly added my schedule for the week and am arriving to commitments well ahead of schedule. Definitely recommend to anyone!

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2025-04-03, version 2.0*

### 3/5 — Current Glitch

*2026-01-11*

I use this app everyday and I have for a couple months now. Currently i’ve been having a glitch where i’m getting notifications for events I have that day but when I go into the app the event i’m getting notifications for is gone. Like the app hasn’t been showing me my events for the current day and I even checked to see if they’d be under “past” but they aren’t there either. So i’m getting leave time notifications for the event but can’t see it in the app on the day. Which has been frustrating and been over a week now. I’ve been checking every day for an app update and there hasn’t been one

### 5/5 — Great for time blindness

*2026-06-11*

Really helps me be on time for appointments!

### 5/5 — More aware, less stressed

*2026-02-16*

Great concept paired with solid execution + support. I tested for 1 week, ran into a couple issues with sync (because of my settings), and got quick, clear help & support from the app’s maker. Since then, I have had no issues, get all the benefits, and am running with the app daily. I despise spending $$ on apps for the most part, but I’m happy to purchase a lifetime license with Lately and support this dev. Brilliant!

### 5/5 — Paid for lifetime premium bc it’s WORTH IT

*2026-02-04*

If you’re the kind of person who DEEPLY wants to be on time, starts early, gets everything ready, and then gets sidetracked with a task or emergency at the last second and ends up embarrassingly late no matter how hard you try — please, please try Lately app. I’ve been using this app regularly since I discovered it a few months ago and it’s truly been lifechanging. I’m the kind of person who is often an HOUR — yes, 60+ MINUTES — late to everything — but not for lack of trying! I used to cry regularly in my car on the drive over out of frustration because I felt like I was trying EVERYTHING — alarms, visual timers, and even peer pressure by asking my bf to rush me. Lately’s progress bar, time left before leaving, and reminders to get ready combined SHOCKED me bc I realized I had to be out the door much sooner than anticipated. It also made me realize I have an intense time blindness problem lol. Now I’m approximately 20 minutes late everywhere I go, which is still not ideal — but it’s a 40 minute improvement and I’m very thankful to this app for making it happen for me! 2026 goal is to start being EARLY 😤❤️

### 5/5 — On time for work without the Stress

*2025-11-28, version 3.2.1*

This has genuinely helped me get to work on time without stressing so much.  The visual countdown is super helpful

### 5/5 — I wish this existed before

*2025-08-23*

This app really helped me out putting my stuff together! I highly recommend if you have ADHD!

### 5/5 — Legitimately helpful

*2025-05-18, version 2.1*

This app is supportive in nudging you to plan how to be on time.  Sometime I struggle with.

### 5/5 — Helps my son stay on track

*2025-04-11*

This app has been a huge help for my son with ADHD. The simple layout, reminders, and step-by-step task breakdowns make it easy for him to stay organized and feel in control. He’s more focused, independent, and less overwhelmed. Highly recommend for ADHD families!

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing this! It’s so heartwarming to hear how the app is helping your son feel more focused and independent. We’re truly grateful for your recommendation and thrilled to support your family!

### 5/5 — Finally, an App That Helps You Actually Be On Time

*2025-04-10*

If you have ADHD, struggle with time blindness, or just tend to run late, this app is a lifesaver. It doesn’t just remind you about appointments—it helps you prepare for them.

What makes it great:
	•	Smart, layered reminders 
	•	Encouraging nudges to help you start moving
	•	A simple, non-overwhelming design

It’s like having a supportive friend keeping you on track. Whether you have ADHD or just hate being late, this app makes a real difference.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the awesome review! I’m really happy to hear the reminders and simple design are working so well for you. It’s great knowing it feels like a helpful buddy keeping you on track!

### 5/5 — Good for the fashionably late as well as those w ADHD!

*2025-04-10*

A well-needed app in this world of distractions. Arriving anywhere on time has never been more challenging. This app is simple and fun to use. It is well thought out, integrating with maps and considering mode of transportation. Maybe this will be the antidote to my habitual lateness. Fingers crossed and thank you!!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the awesome words! I’m so glad you’re finding the app simple and fun, and that the maps and transportation features are hitting the mark. Here’s hoping it’s the perfect fix for those late habits, fingers crossed too!
