Keeping everything running smoothly.

User reviews

Very disappointing

As a fairly tech friendly person, this app proved too convoluted for me to set up a trial run for myself never mind a group of students. The instructions are cursory at best and not intuitive at all. The in app keyboard is very difficult to use. As it was recommended by an Executive skills expert, I expected much more.

Excellent ADHD Resource!

This app is a wonderful tool to help my students with ADHD! The goal is to redirect, so even if my students aren’t responding honestly to the question prompt, it really doesn’t matter if redirecting is happening! Here is what I like:
-Not over stimulating-very simple & basic visual cues
-Develops independence in the student to self regulate
-Not distracting to other peers!
-Wording prompts are personalized

Not user friendly

It is not user friendly. I set up student and some tasks, however it just didn’t work. Waste of time and $.

Don’t waste your money

Bought this app hoping it would be a user friendly method of setting a silent vibrate alarm every 10 minutes. However, it only works when the app is open, and will not vibrate if minimized. I deleted this version and found a free app to do what I needed instead. Very disappointed!
