EffectoReviews of effecto.app

I don't really see the point in logging all this stuff and how it could possibly help with ADHD. I sincerely doubt that anyone with ADHD was involved in making this app. The first thing they did was send a 36 page document that is too long and painful to read. The app is boring to use and the notifications don't work. I have triple checked settings and all permissions are enabled, yet still no notifications. We need reminders! It's definitely not interesting enough to stick with it otherwise. The app is very buggy- freezes up and crashes continually. It takes multiple tries to log things. With all of these barriers to even using the app, I can't imagine sticking with it long term. I regret subscribing for an entire year. A waste of money. I suppose this is why there is no free trial. Nobody would pay for it after trying it. A suggestion I have is to stop tracking everything on a scale from awful to good. That doesn't make sense for every single thing. I don't want to track "cups of coffee" as somewhere between awful and good. It makes more sense to count cups.

I dont understand how it helps my adhd

Encourages even more distracting phone use and procrastination. I though there might have been interesting insights on the ap on how to manage ADHD , All it is is a bunch of templates ,ie how much water do you drink, weight,sleep etc . You can get these on most other health aps for free. A very cool and slick advertising campaign on Instagram encouraged me to spend over £50on this and I'm very cross with myself for being such a fool.

Its was just not what i expected and i fully fell for the marketing trick! It's too much writing and symptoms analytics. For someone with adhd not really helpfull and the trick to "Get your Plan here" but then have to pay for an app is just not fair enough

I’m not a fan. It’s basically one to one the same as another tracker I’ve used for a while (Bearable) but more than twice as expensive. I emailed the team to ask about their cancellation and refund policy and the reply was that they only do refunds in case of technical malfunction. So even though I don’t like the app, which I figured out within the first few hours after paying 40 bucks for a year subscription, I don’t have the option for a refund. They should at least offer a free trial! You can’t even see the UI or anything until you’ve paid the subscription fee. It was advertised as an app tailored to ADHD on my social media which is why I was excited to try it but it doesn’t have any sort of specific features, just your run-of-the-mill tracker. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing, just not what it was advertised as. And VASTLY overpriced. I really wouldn’t recommend Effecto, the same if not better apps with a much smaller price tag are available.
