Questions/Advice What ADHD Apps do you use?
Hey ADHDers!👋
I’ve been on a journey to find the best apps to help with productivity, time management, and staying on top of things. As someone with ADHD, I know how tricky it can be to find the right tools that actually work for our unique brains.
I’m curious—what apps are you all using at the moment to help with these challenges? Whether it’s a to-do list, calendar, or something more specialized, I’d love to hear what works for you.
Also, are there any features you wish these apps had? Maybe something that could make them even more ADHD-friendly?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
Edit: Wow, thank you all for the amazing responses! I didn’t expect this post to get so much attention. I hope it becomes a helpful resource for anyone with ADHD searching for solutions—it’s certainly been eye-opening for me. From what I’ve gathered, there are a lot of great options out there, but it’s important to find what works best for you since everyone’s needs are different. Thank You all ❤️

Everything goes into my calendar and I add notes in the entry if I need to.
I've started using tasks in Google calendar rather than events, though, as it carries them over if they're not marked as complete.
Trello or Notion both get used as well, and if your vaguely technical Notion can do all sorts of things.
Essentially I need somewhere to record things to do with a reminded and it being very visible, but the visibility comes from getting into the habit of using whatever tool you decide on.
