Helps keep me on track! ### 4/5 — Frustrated - but not any more! *2021-01-25, version 2.5.0* Update: I heard back from QCard. They helped to fix the situation. The accounts are now set up properly and I can send QCards to my dtr. Today is the first day for her use. I am liking the results. My dtr (high functioning MRDD) typically loses her day (will forget to perform her ADL’s), very unorganized. She responds promptly to her reminders and completes her tasks in a timely fashion. Thank you for your prompt response! Now we are learning how to use your app to optimize our days. Great results so far! PS: my oldest dtr is an OT and she recommended the use of your app to increase my disabled dtrs independence. Bought and set up my account. Tried to set up an account for my disabled dtr. Hers is in trial mode and will not link with mine. It wants her to purchase the app. We have family share enabled but the app is not recognizing family share. I sent an email, waiting for response...will update when receive response. Right now, I am very frustrated. I cannot send tasks to her device to help organize her day. ### 4/5 — Falling behind *2020-08-01, version 2.5.0* The app is missing days and times or changes times. I have to delete the future cards to reset it correctly. Sometimes the alarms don’t go off. Then I open the app hours later and the lunch med alarm will go off (even tho it is night), then catch up with the rest of the day. There’s no way to put in that I tempered at the right time and took it. It’s a good app, when it works. The guidance tab is weird now because when it set it, I expect it to start when I say Go- not realizing it put in a timer to start in an hour or something. I can’t set it to zero. Kristin ### 3/5 — ADHD Girl’s Best Friend *2020-04-07, version 2.5.0* Just wanted to give many thanks to the devs for this intuitive design. I have ADHD and I’ve tried hundreds of apps to help keep me on track but none of them compare to this one! It’s user friendly, uncomplicated, yet effective in its simplicity. Constant reminders for those of us who easily get distracted. I love that even when I snooze it, it will keep popping up until I do it. Lol. My life won’t be the same without it! Thanks so much ❤️ ### 2/5 — Recipients *2020-03-21, version 2.4.12* Not finding a way to add contacts to show in the recipients list. ### 3/5 — This app is AMAZING...if only they had Apple Watch support! *2019-04-20, version 2.4.11* I have an iPhone XS Max phone, I love this app but not having the Apple Watch support is killer. ### 4/5 — Very helpful app:) *2018-05-05, version 2.4.7* Just the first time to use today and it really works. I hope it can send me notification too from my apple watch...will this be a feauture soon? Can you also give this app other sounds or alarm sounds for us to choose...i need it a bit louder. ### 4/5 — Would like to use with Apple Watch *2018-05-05, version 2.4.7* UPDATE TO POST: It has been a year since I reviewed this & you said you were planning on adding an Apple Watch app as soon as you can. Is this happening anytime soon? Thanks! Hi there! I have only been using this for one day & I already love it! The downside to it, and only reason I did not give 5 stars; is that it is not compatible with Apple Watch. I am using this app to help with my executive functioning problems, so I'm using a lot of the guided reminders, but I am not supposed to have my phone out at work. It would be great if it were compatible with Apple Watch so I could also use it to keep myself on task at work! ### 2/5 — Qcard “free trail” *2018-04-30, version 2.4.7* I signed up for the free 14 day trail. Big mistake. Now I’m getting messages every 5 seconds on my phone to remind me of how many days left I have! It’s very annoying as hell! Also one friend swears by this app. But for a couple of us with brain injuries this is very confusing and the “timers” not turning off until you turn them off is just not good for at least some of us.... ### 4/5 — Clunky to start, love it now *2018-03-18, version 2.4.7* I like the repeating alerts, forces me to stop playing a game and do a task. Things I think would help me: 1) Ability to duplicate a card, complete or not. 2) Ability to look at the list on completed cards. 3) A start date of any time today, this week, this month. Question: how do you reuse guided tasks? I do laundry when I run out of clean clothes, not on any particular day or date, so scheduling isn't an option. 3) might help with this. ### 5/5 — Great Results *2018-03-06, version 2.4.7* As soon as I filled out cards instead of making a to-do list I could see how busy my day was. This visual kept me on pace, and kept reminding me to keep up. I haven’t forgotten anything in a week! Thank you. This is exactly what I needed! ### 2/5 — Comment *2018-03-03, version 2.4.7* Too complicated.... ### 3/5 — Like it and don’t like it *2018-02-16, version 2.4.7* I like it and don’t like it. If you have your phone right next to you all the time then it works for you but in the other hand the reminder Continuously goes on until you change it for a different hour. At times it’s a irritating it’s just not for me. I’m trying to opt out of this trial but I can’t find out how to opt out, so I hope I don’t get charged when my free trial comes to expire. I’m going to delete this from my app. Thank you Rita Gonzalez ### 5/5 — Life changing! Without doubt the best thing I ever found to use as a spare brain *2017-08-03, version 2.4.2* I have ADHD. I've been struggling with it for years, finding it demeaning and embarrassing to always be late, despite my best intentions and endless strategies to avert disaster. Using Qcard to cope frees my mind from fear of failure at this and helps with other issues like task completion and the dreaded but awesome hyperfocus :) Free trial left me utterly dependent on it but fortunately the subscription amount is tiny so add affordability to its virtues. ADHD as a life companion is now less debilitating and more inspirational - try it!! I'm free to let my mind float and engage in my distractions and it is truly wonderful... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Will not recognize paid subscription *2024-08-09, version 2.8.0* I utilized the free trial, found that I liked the app, and purchased a yearly subscription. Apple recognizes my paid subscription, but Qcard does not. I can’t use the app that I paid for, and I can’t find a way to fix the issue. ### 1/5 — It was great until I subscribed. *2024-08-09, version 2.8.0* I love how this app works. I went to subscribe in the app and now the app no longer works. Every attempt to use it takes me to the subscription page. I tried to restore purchases and it still goes to the you must subscribe page. I Cole’s and opened the app. Same thing. I uninstalled and reinstalled and it is the same. I tried to subscribe again and it say you are already subscribed. Restore purchases still doesn’t work. Now all the app does is immediately go to the subscription page. It is really too bad it is doing this. This is the first app I have found that was actually working to remind me of all the things my TBI makes me forget. ### 1/5 — Undependable app with constant time corruptions *2024-07-30, version 2.8.0* If you set a timer to take a pill on Monday at 10 by Tuesday, the timer will be for 1030 by Wednesday 1104 by Thursday 1252. it is so random how it corrupts time outwards. I do not trust this app to take my pills. It’s dangerous. ### 1/5 — Deleted information *2021-06-25, version 2.5.0* I downloaded the app today and added six tasks for today, tomorrow and Monday. They all saved. I went back into the app ten minutes later to show someone how it works. Everything I entered was deleted. ### 1/5 — Terrible!! Do not use if reminders are important to you. *2018-06-11, version 2.4.7* The app changed my reminder times daily, so it I was not taking my medication properly (which is a real problem). Spent many hours re-inputting my med reminders, only to have them all screwed up within a day or two. I contacted the developer to ask if there was something I could do to fix the problem, and they acknowledged that there is a glitch and promised they are working on it, but after months of forgetting or taking meds twice, I am deleting this app. ALSO, they kept charging me a monthly fee even though I paid for a lifetime subscription. Eventually this got worked out and they refunded me the over-payment. DO NOT USE THIS APP IF YOU ARE USING IT FOR MED REMINDERS OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT IS IMPORTANT! ### 1/5 — WARNING: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS DANGEROUS APP! *2017-12-02, version 2.4.2* I'm being charged monthly for this thing I installed for less than 24 hours months ago. It apparently can't import from other apps, so I'm not interested. So they charge me $2 every month for just looking. What jerks! ### 1/5 — Tried it - doesn't work *2017-06-13, version 2.4.2* I will reconsider my review if I could actually use the app. It is stuck on a loop on the main page. I have tried to reinstall it three times. ### 1/5 — :( *2016-08-25, version 2.3.1* It crashes every time I open it. ### 1/5 — Problem remembering future tasks. *2015-06-20, version 2.2.1* Doesn't remember future tasks and appointments. I wrote a letter to support and no response. Would be a great app if it worked right. ### 1/5 — DON'T PURCHASE!!!!! Please read: *2013-08-18* This is the 4th time I've tried Qcard. It has previously frozen on me resulting in deleting the app and losing all data, this is punishment to some one living with a braim injury. since deleting it the alarms still sound with no way to turn off. Remove app from your phone ASAP unless you want the same issue. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-04-07, version 2.10.0* Incredibly effective for various tasks. Sure you can try to ignore them, but that would take more energy and patience to do than just taking care of whatever task you’re procrastinating on. P.S. Ignore the emojis in my nickname, I’m not sure how they got there, my leading theory is that it was auto-generated by Apple ### 5/5 — Q-card must have app for me *2024-06-04, version 2.8.0* Q-card app is essential for me after traumatic brain injury. ### 5/5 — Love this App! *2024-04-07, version 2.7.0* I love this app. It is simple and easy to use and set up all types of reminders. I like the way it signals a reminder and has you complete the task to stop the alarm. That way it ensures you hear the alarm. Support was very helpful to me when I had an issue. I have used this app for years and depend on it. ### 5/5 — ADHD helper *2023-09-14, version 2.6.0* My ADHD makes day to day things hard. It makes remembering things impossible. It means I missed more meetings then I attended. The calendar reminders are pretty much useless for me - especially if I was hyper focusing on something - I would just swipe the reminder away. With qcards - it reminds you every min with a sound until you complete the task. This app is simple to use but powerful enough to keep your life straight. As I now say to everyone - if it doesn’t make it into qcards - it doesn’t happen. Thanks for making this amazing product. It’s been exactly the piece I was missing to get my adhd under control. 🫶🏼👏🏽🙏 ### 5/5 — Long time user *2023-08-02, version 2.6.0* My daughter has been using the app for years! It has really helped her!! Thank you for making it! ### 5/5 — This App is Amazing *2020-06-10, version 2.5.0* I’ve been using Qcard for over 12 years now and it has become an integral part of my memory strategies!! ### 5/5 — Great tool for ppl with memory issues *2019-10-21, version 2.4.12* Thanks for grandfathering me in! I’ve been using it for over a year & it’s been incredibly helpful. I’ve recommended it to others with brain injuries & ADHD as a great memory tool. It’s especially great because the notifications repeatedly go off until I deal with the situation. It cannot be easily ignored. ### 5/5 — Best thing ever *2019-09-01, version 2.4.12* I had a Trumatic brain injury in 2004 and was introduced to this when it first came out by my social worker. I have used it ever since for my Appointments found love it. This offers much more than my regular calendar. ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed/wanted *2019-07-29, version 2.4.11* Due to TBI I really struggle to remember tasks, I can get distracted before a task is completed, and I can’t remember if I did something (eg taking medicine). This app is exactly what I needed. It is so easy to use. It is a lot better for me than using calendar reminders, alarms, to do lists, etc. It has reminders, lists (eg for groceries) and guided tasks (eg laundry). You can send reminders/ lists to others and they to you. This app is always at my fingertips and quickly became a habit. It has made a big difference for me. Thank you to the people who created it. ### 5/5 — Rating *2018-11-01, version 2.4.9* This app has changed my life , helped me with appointments and stay focused. TBI is no joke. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
