### 3/5 — Hmmm not exactly

*2026-08-08, version 1.0.6*

A bit confusing. The description is not as relevant to the content of the app, but nonetheless could be useful.

### 3/5 — It has been helpful to a point.

*2026-08-06, version 1.0.6*

I got this app because I struggle to care about keeping things tidy around the house and my husband really prefers things to be tidy. Before you go hating on him he’s very reasonable and doesn’t usually make a big deal out of it. But the fact is it’s one way I can show him love and if something I’ve wanted to work on. Plus, it is nice when things are tidy. I just always have reasons to put off cleaning up because I feel like I can do more important things with my time. Not being lazy – I’m doing other important tasks.

So that’s the backstory.

I saw this app and read the reviews and people were saying things like on the first day. It told me to put away three things in my line of sight and I did and that was it. I thought perfect. This is exactly what I need to create good habits about cleaning up.

But when I took the quiz, apparently the app felt that what I needed was mental processing about how to not procrastinate.

It is true that not cleaning up as a form of procrastination

At first, the lessons were helpful and they did in fact help me set aside my excuses for not putting things away when I was able to. But never once has it told me to put things away. It just keeps asking me to consider a task. I’ve procrastinated on an entire day lessons to it. It feels redundant at this point.

I think I will finish out my month, which is over in a few few days and then cancel.

### 3/5 — My understanding

*2026-07-30, version 1.0.6*

It was my understanding from your ad that I would receive text/emails w/ helpful to do’s. 
I have only received the daily readings - which are helpful However, . I was looking for more to get me started up the correct path.

### 3/5 — Ironically text heavy

*2026-07-27, version 1.0.6*

This app is disappointing, I was hoping that it would be more dynamic and interesting to use considering ADHD sufferers would be using it. It’s boring af. Text size is too small. There are no real directions it just says ‘consider…’ but it means start writing. Dumb.

### 2/5 — Not as advertised

*2026-07-09, version 1.0.6*

I paid for and down loaded this app, because it was advertised as the Swedish Lagom method for organized and tidy, balanced living. This is a mental health app for people with ADHD.  It contains none of the tidying prompts discussed in the advertisement.  
I am canceling the subscription so that it doesn’t auto-renew.  I do have ADHD so I may update my review after my trial period, but so far it seems too wordy and in too fine print for my ADHD sensibilities.  
I’m angry that I paid for something and got something completely different.  Do better Mellowflow!

### 2/5 — No free trial?

*2026-07-07, version 1.0.6*

Seems promising but I’m not able to spend 30 bucks on a tool I have no preview into or trial usage of. Bummer.

### 3/5 — So far not mind blowing

*2026-07-06, version 1.0.6*

Ive been in and out of therapy for 30+ years.  This is the first time ive accepted depression as a diagnosis.  I have a feeling of heaviness to do anything all the time. My shoulders and neck hurt.  So far none of the readings are really making me feel lighter in any way.  Theres nothing i havent heard before.  I do like the limit to the sessions. It keeps me from forgetting and feeling like im failing.  I hope the quizzes and exercises get better.  I already meditate and journal.

### 2/5 — Another scam

*2026-07-04, version 1.0.6*

I was charged the renewal fee of $99.99 before my trial was done, then they refuse to refund it when I cancelled my subscription.

### 3/5 — Activity

*2026-06-27, version 1.0.6*

The ad suggested that from day one there would be practical tasks to help you organise your life and I’m still waiting

### 2/5 — Not useful

*2026-06-24, version 1.0.6*

This is a glorified ebook unless you subscribe to several costly options. There are far better programs.

### 1/5 — Not worth the money

*2026-06-07, version 1.0.6*

Overpriced after first 2 months. $105 for just 2 months.  No notification was about to renew. Only 11 days after initial purchase to cancel and get refund.

### 1/5 — Big Business

*2026-06-05, version 1.0.6*

I am sure that there are some people who will benefit from this app I did not. I had an introductory offer that I paid for. There was no reminder email sent that it was about to renew and I was charged over $100 for the subscription. When I contacted the company they initially said too bad so sad and offered no refund. Eventually I was given a 25% refund. It is very disappointing to know that they are more about business than actual fair practices. This app had no benefit for me and yes I did forget to cancel but there was no reminder that an annual subscription charge was about to be made. So beware if you decide this app isn’t for you don’t just delete it like I did and wait for the notification of renewal because there won’t be one.

### 1/5 — Absolutely horrible company

*2026-06-03, version 1.0.6*

Cancelling through the app will not suffice and they will auto charge you. 
There is no customer service and they prey on people who don’t read all the small print. DO NOT USE—100% Regret

### 1/5 — Total scam

*2026-06-01, version 1.0.6*

If I could give no stars I would. Total scam. I subscribed thinking it would be great to give it a go. Alarm bells rang as soon as I signed up and I was immediately spammed with countless emails exhorting me to indulge in multiple special offers, gifts, upgrades and extras…. Nonetheless I tried it and spent some time on the initial written exercises. As I have a very busy life, with a lot of shift work, I couldn’t do the suggested ‘5 mins a day’ approach; instead if I had a spare hour I planned to work through as much as I could. Which worked the first time. Then a couple of days later I did one exercise and when I tried to move on, all subsequent ones were locked and inaccessible - despite my having PAID for a two month sub. I couldn't even access the content I’d paid for. So, exasperated, I thought I’d try a different theme with one of the other courses in the app. When I tried to do that it informed me that if I tried another one then ALL my work on the current course would be deleted!! Yes, deleted. Helpful much. Yet I couldn’t actually access the course I was supposedly following. 🤯 unreal. So, as I was in the first few days of my sub I wrote to ask for cancellation and refund  of my subscription as it wasn’t compatible. I then got the following email… (whilst reading, keep in mind that I was well under the mentioned 11 days when I first requested a refund - and where exactly is my statutory 14 day cooling off period?! -  and I was sitting TRYING to use the app and lesson 7 was LOCKED so I was UNABLE to access it. Very convenient given the bizarre refund rules, which seemed to have been made up on the spot as an excuse):

“ I would like to refer you to our refund policy once more:

To initiate a full refund request, customers must contact us via email within 11 days following the initial purchase. As part of the refund request, customers must explain their reasons for dissatisfaction and demonstrate adherence to the plan by completing 7 consecutive lessons. Proof of completion should be submitted in the form of screenshots or other acceptable documentation.

Our Customer Service Team will review each request carefully, considering the provided reasons and evidence of plan adherence, within 1-3 business days. Should the request be approved, the timeframe for processing the full refund will be between 5-10 business days.

Please note, full refunds are not applicable to recurring payment plans. Additionally, certain plans, such as the 28-day challenge, may be exempt from this policy due to the different nature and structure of the offer.

As it has been more than 11 days since your initial purchase, you are no longer eligible for a full refund. However, as a gesture, I would like to offer you a 25% refund on your latest purchase.”

Note: I was never refunded - neither for 100% or 25% of my wasted money. Never ever again. Avoid avoid avoid.

### 1/5 — Buyer Baware

*2026-05-31, version 1.0.6*

The online advertising makes this program appear to be a Swedish housecleaning method. IT IS NOT! You have 3 choices. Depression, procrastination, or ADHD, and that is where you pour your time. False advertising and a waste of time. If I could get my money back, I would. 😡

### 1/5 — Fix the app layout

*2026-05-31, version 1.0.6*

The app layout is terrible. It’s too small sometimes to read on your phone. If you try to open it on a tablet, it does not allow for full screen so it effectively is the same as small font on the phone. Developers, fix this nonsense. Otherwise you will keep getting some of the negative reviews that you do.

### 1/5 — Trial?

*2026-05-28, version 1.0.6*

There really should be a trial. I'm not going to pay $30 up front, sight unseen. I want to use it app but I don't want to pay just to see what it's all about. Seems scammy.

### 1/5 — No trial

*2026-05-28, version 1.0.6*

Since it was free to download I assumed there was at least a free trial

### 1/5 — Major letdown

*2026-08-06, version 1.0.6*

It had very little to offer. 
I never write reviews but I was shocked at how different Mellow Flow was once I got it vs what I expected from their article. No wonder they didn’t have any kind of free trial - no one would ever buy it after that. I can’t believe I paid any money for this let alone as much as I did.

### 1/5 — Worst app interface ever

*2026-08-03, version 1.0.6*

I signed up by email. The instructions to download and sign in to the app are abominable. Anyone with ADD would find it difficult to impossible. The app keeps prompting me to pay a subscription fee again with no way to navigate to my account. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app 3 times and I’m still stuck. Cannot link the account I signed up for on the website to the same email address on the app. WTH people?

### 1/5 — ADHD Info - No Solution!

*2026-08-01, version 1.0.6*

Ridiculous app … I bought from an ad about Swedish order & cozy homes … The app was supposed to be daily tasks & clarifying decision making … It’s just a bunch of info about ADHD … no solution offered at all & no way to get a refund … SCAM.

### 1/5 — Misleading when purchasing

*2026-07-29, version 1.0.6*

I thought I was getting a 2 month trial for $35. They charged me almost $200 because of add ons that I didn’t realize I was getting. I only got a partial refund and never used the app. Stay away!!!!

### 1/5 — Beware

*2026-07-24, version 1.0.6*

Downloaded the app and purchased a one month subscription for $30 only to have the company try to charge me $140 in addition to the $30. Had to cancel my debit card so as not to be charged. DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY.

### 1/5 — THIS COMPANY WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY

*2026-07-16, version 1.0.6*

I signed up for 2 months for £25 I immediately wrote and cancelled as I thought I’d pay that much, use it for 2 months then that’s it. 
Well… they charged me an EXTRA £104!!!!! 
I DO NOT TRUST COMPANIES THAT STEAL MONEY. 
I want my ENTIRE MONEY REFUNDED AS I CANNOT TRUST A COMPANY WHICH THIEVES.

### 1/5 — Nicht versuchen!!

*2026-07-14*

Es ist überhaupt nicht klar, dass alle drei Monate 115 € abgebucht werden, wenn man ein Probeabo abschließt! Wenn man dann verhandeln möchte, hat man es nur mit einer sehr freundlichen AI Assistentin zu tun. Keine Chance auf irgendeine Art Kulanz. Das war der totale Fehlkauf und ich kann nur davon abraten!

**Developer response:** Hi there,

I apologize for any confusion caused, however, we do not offer or advertise any "free trial" subscriptions. If you've received a plan renewal after 3 months, it means that you purchased a full 3-month subscription with us.

For further assistance, please get back to us and mention this review in the support thread.

Best wishes,
MellowFlow Team

### 1/5 — No, No, No

*2026-07-11, version 1.0.6*

Any app that forces me to create an account before I have even tried it is going to get dumped immediately. Learn to understand that people don’t want accounts for every app, especially before they can see any value. Maybe it is just what I’d been looking for but now I’ll never know

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-27, version 1.0.6*

They double and triple charge you and then customer service just circles around the problem. The app itself is not worth it at all!
*update- received a response asking me to contact them with a link. Big surprise it did NOT WORK. UGH

### 1/5 — Betrug - kein App Zugang

*2026-06-19*

Man bezahlt online, ohne Mailadresse anzugeben und bekommt auch keinen App Zugriff

**Developer response:** Hi there,

I'm sorry for any confusion caused, however, it's not possible to purchase anything with us without using an e-mail address. It's possible that the payment method that you used is tied to one of your addresses - please check.

Best wishes,
MellowFlow Team

### 5/5 — Awareness Reminder

*2026-07-17, version 1.0.6*

I love the brief, daily session format to help remind me of how I can stay present and aware of my own patterns and sometimes unhealthy behaviors. It’s like daily therapy in five minute increments.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2026-05-15, version 1.0.6*

So far (chapter 1 completed) this has been helpful. I was pleasantly surprised to notice how spot on the questions and information are relevant to how I’ve been feeling. Puts into perspective of how my self talk gets in the way of living a full and happy life. I committed to 1 yr and we’ll see how it goes. I already feel better about myself and am doing more, gets my projects completed and happier.

### 5/5 — Right idea wrong execution

*2026-04-17, version 1.0.6*

The app provided the information to “correct my self talk” but did not guide me enough. A procrastinator needs to be interrupted during procrastination to examine why they are avoiding. Missed opportunity.

### 5/5 — Better Focus During WFH

*2026-04-13, version 1.0.5*

Simple but helpful to put me on track when working from home. When i feel like im getting distracted, i'm going to take a lesson on the app and it takes me back on track.

### 5/5 — Keeps me on track while studying

*2026-04-12, version 1.0.5*

Studying with ADHD is rough. I’ll read one paragraph and then zone out. This helps me focus in short bursts so I don’t burn out. It feels more realistic than trying to force a 3 hour grind.

### 5/5 — Helped me finish my laundry!!

*2026-04-11, version 1.0.5*

Laundry used to sit in the washer forever because I’d forget about it. I started using this while doing chores and it keeps me moving from wash to fold without wandering off to do five other things.

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2026-01-16, version 1.0.4*

I was used to live with tension, and mellowflow showed me its possible to feel calm!

### 5/5 — 👍

*2026-01-14, version 1.0.4*

Good app if u want to learn and understand more about yourself

### 5/5 — Easy to cọmmit 👍

*2025-10-25, version 1.0.4*

finally an app that makes it easy to cọmmit to it

### 5/5 — convinient & easy

*2025-10-09, version 1.0.4*

very convinient and easy to use for me
