Complete scam

I didn't even make it past the privacy agreement before deleting. The five requests were:

1) I agree to the proceeding of my personal health information to enable core features

2) privacy statement ans terms of service

3) I allow Propel to collect anonymous usage data to help improve the app and experience

4) I agree that Properly may use my personal data (except health data) to send product or service offers over email

5) I agree that AppsFlyer and its integrated partners may use information like my email and technical identifiers (within privacy policy) to help Propel show relevant advertising and reach people like me

Edit after Developer response on 7/9/2026: "Individual options" was not my experience. App store reviews do not allow screenshots, but I have them of the agreements screen. Any ability to move forward was prevented even with partial selections of the 5 agreements, and no differentiation was made clear between necessary and "optional" choices.

It’s NOT FREE

This app wasted five minutes of my time asking questions and “personalizing a workout” just to paywall the rest of the app.

Awesome

Great game, even though I’m nine it still helps. I think it’s good. Even though it’s a scam in a way. Lower prices would be greatly beneficial in the future. The fact that it was a scam and not a free game it still makes me feel better about my ADHD and anxiety.

Hi, I'm Cátia! Thank you so much for the kind words, that means a lot. Just a heads-up: Propel is designed for ages 13 and up, so it'd be great for a parent or guardian to know you're using the app. Feel free to have them reach out to support@neuronwizard.com if they have any questions!

ADHD Madness!!!!

So far so good. App isn’t glitchy and activates and helps build those neural pathways! I’ll be using daily!

你好！我是 Cátia。谢谢你的赞美！看到你觉得游戏设计不错并能有效锻炼大脑，我们整个团队都非常受鼓舞。我们会持续通过调查与研发来优化体验，陪你一起保持大脑活力。加油！

Good, but...

Issues:

* Reflex Tap game does not always register my finger taps in my iPhones old 12 mini and new 17.

* Numerical Shuffle game never randomly show up for me. Also, first level is too hard after doing its easy tutorial.

Suggestions:

* Apple's Game Center connection!

* Give us more than three primary goals options. I want most/all!

Prism Align game does not need to give me hints automatically. Make it an option please.

NOT FREE

Nothings free. Can only play for like 5 minutes then to do ANYTHING else it costs money. Why can’t this be free?

任天堂switch上有个脑力游戏，才130买断，如果你这个游戏100买断制我愿意考虑

I Love It!!

This app is really great! Yes you have to pay for it beyond the 7 day free trial, but it’s worth some money. Pro tip: deny all of the payment plans, including the free trial (there IS a free version) until it offers the premium version for $35.99/year forever! That’s about $3/month — more than reasonable.

As for the games, they’re simple enough to start and then progressively get more challenging as you prove you can handle it. I like how they are not overly complicated. It keeps me coming back. I’m happy to have something leisurely to do on my phone that doesn’t involve wrecking my dopamine system (i.e. scrolling social media). And better yet, it’s helping my ADHD brain. Also loving the minimalist, sleek design.

For ADHD, not by ADHD

Whoever decided to create a 5 minute onboarding process for the app clearly doesn't understand people with ADHD. I was so frustrated by the time I got to the actual games that I quit and deleted it.

Hi, João here! I totally get it, as someone building for ADHD, I know long setups can be a nightmare. We use that time to tailor the training to your specific executive functions so the games actually help. Still, we're working on making them faster and more engaging. Thanks for the honest feedback!

7 Day Free Trial Scam

I wasn’t sure about this app and saw another highlighted bad review about wanting money. As stated by the developers themself there is a 7 day free trial before any subscription purchase is made. This is a blatant lie. I started the free trial and 12 hours later was charged $40 for the yearly access. 12 HOURS!! If you do try this app and don’t like it after a few minutes/hours delete it and it’s subscription in your settings immediately!!

Response from developer

Hi, João here! I'm sorry for the confusion. To clarify, we offer different plans to give users more choice. While our main yearly option includes a 7-day free trial, some other plans begin immediately. This is always specified on the Store's final confirmation screen before you authorize any payment. Since Apple handles all billing, you can request a refund directly from them. If you need help with that process, please reach out to us at support@neuronwizard.com, we're here to help!

Disappointed

They asked me all this information just to get to a page that asked to do the free trial. I’ve learned my lessons with free trials. They’ll charge you and it’s hard to get the money refunded. No thanks.

Will trick you into paying £12.99 upfront!!!

Just been charged £12.99 after signing up to a free trial. Luckily I was given a refund when I reported this. From previous reviews, I see that this has been an ongoing problem for months which has not been resolved. Will delete this app now.

Another sly trick

Why do apps lie to people? Tell people up front how much it costs! I’m sick of being tricked into paying sir a GAME. Makes my ADHD even worse. Shame on you for messing with the minds that want to play a game to help them.

Response from developer

您好，非常感谢您的反馈。我们注意到您在 iPhone 和 iPad 上使用相同的 Apple 账号时，游戏记录未同步。我们很快会发布新版本，修复跨设备的数据同步问题。感谢您的耐心与支持！

This game is NOT free in any way. it’s a trick!

I was very disappointed. They ask you all kinds of personal information before you even get to try it as well as get your money. the free games? it told me I could pay up front and cancel at anytime. It’s a scam in making you believe you can play for free and it will help you. the only thing i see helping is lining the pockets of the people who own this site. Don’t fall for it like i did. As for the games. who knows it they help, i wasn’t willing to pay up front in order to find out. if they lied to me just to hook and reel me in. who knows what else they are lying to me about. Just wanted everyone to know. I am deleting this app!

Response from developer

Hi! Thank you for sharing your thoughts, we're sorry for the frustration this caused. To clarify, the 7-day trial is completely free and gives full access to all games. You can cancel immediately after starting the trial and still keep access for the full week without being charged. No payment is required to try the app for those 7 days. We ask for optional information to personalize your daily workout plan and difficulty progression, but you are never required to provide it to explore Propel. Our subscriptions support ongoing research and improvements, so we can continue helping people with ADHD in meaningful ways. Thank you again for the time to share your feedback as it helps us make the app more transparent and user-friendly.

Commitment overload

AUDHD diagnosed and money is always tight. 7 day trial and then £39.99 is a lot to ask for us ND people to try.
We will forget, probably ignore reminders and then you take payment we fight to get it back and thus then cannot eat for a day or 2. It’s literally such a frustrating system and when we try to get money back apple will just tell us no, give an excuse this has happened to me more times than I can count. If this was made for ADHD you would know this would be an issue or barrier for most. Financially, memory etc … just really frustrating
