Best apps for ADHD (self.androidapps)

athibanvasanthNexus 4 - Chroma 5.1.1 - Rooted が 投稿

I use the following apps for coping with my ADHD madness.

1.StayonTask : Notifies you to stay on your current task.

2.Toastr Pro : A toast with custom message appears when you unlock the screen. Nifty little app but very useful.

3.MediSafe Meds & Pill Reminder : Keep track of your ADHD meds prescribed by your doctor. It even reminds you to get new meds when its going to get empty. Highly recommended !

4.n'4get Reminder : One of my favourites. Scans your contacts and reminds you of all important dates like birthdays, anniversaries, etc. Also many options for simple and recursive reminders. Highly recommended !

5.CF.Lumen/Twilight : These apps adapt your phone screen based on time of the day. They use filter which prevents the light rays of phone from damaging your retina. You will never go back once you start using !

6.Do Now: Focused Timeboxing : A Pomodoro-based/Time-boxing app.

7.Shush! : Set time to reset silent mode in your phone.

8.OFFTIME - Life Unplugged : Unplug from app and social network addictions.

9.Rewire : Habits Tracker. Clean and minimalistic. Set notification for each habits to stay on track.

10.AcDisplay : Minimalistic lock screen with notifications. Very useful to track notifications without unlocking your phone.

11.Regularly : Set reminders for tasks which you do on random days.

12.ZUI Days : Love the way it counts the number of days, hours and seconds spent in your life. Notifies me about the value of time.

13.Relax Melodies P / Coffitivity : As people with ADHD we experience insomnia with our monkey mind jumping all over the place. These apps help me ease that pain.

14.Darker Pro : Use it when screen brightness is hard on your eyes by reducing way below system default brightness.

15.BZ Reminders : Similar to n'4get reminder with good customization. Check it out.

Would love to hear more suggestions. Please reply with apps that are less known, not ones like Google keep, Evernote which are widely used.

Note: As a person with ADHD, it is tempting to spend hours choosing and streamlining these apps. Please select the ones which you find useful and move on.

Thanks a lot for these. I have ADHD and already used some other also to essentially do what these do. I hope these help me out.

The task app I use is Any.do. I like when you set it to remind you it's a popup on your screen at the bottom, not a notification. You need to select something to get rid of it.

I always feel like I'm running out of time or not using my time efficiently enough so hopefully the timer apps will help with that.

Thanks for mentioning Any.do. Just installed the app and it seems fantastic.

I use Tasker profiles set up so during certain times of the day, opening Netflix will actually open any.do and opening bacon reader will open Email, etc

Great that you use Tasker to automate stuff. Personally I avoid the steep learning curve of Tasker and set reminders using simple apps :)

Some of these also help with a screen addiction, which might attribute to ADHD. Nonetheless I installed poweroff to force myself away from my phone. Great post.

I had AC display for the longest time and never realized if I hold on the icon it shows the full notification! Hopefully you figured that our sooner than it took me

Don't have ADHD, but some of these seem useful, thanks!

True ! These are apps super-useful for anyone, but addresses more for those with ADHD.

Check out bz reminder too. You can set reminders that will happen in intervals that you set (I made mine every minute) until you have either snoozed it or marked it as done. It's like Due for iOS, which I personally use.

Anytime :)

Somewhat related, I go from distracted mode to too-focused mode. When that happens, I tend to miss meetings. Anybody know of apps that let you change how calendar reminders work? Or maybe I need to look at alternate calendars like sunrise. I basically want to make some reminders more annoying than normal, and add snooze options.

[–]athibanvasanthNexus 4 - Chroma 5.1.1 - Rooted[S] 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I dont know about Calendar apps, but n'4get reminder which I mentioned in the post has an option to set persistent notification. You can basically set how notorious you want the app to behave ;)

Really essential for ADHD :P

Focus Out Distractions is awesome too. It blocks you from using apps during a certain amount of time.

I've been having this crazy shit happening all week were I decide I need to know something, call someone, email them, etc. And everytime I sit down to do it, someone has asked the same question hours before, called me, info was emailed to me, or someone emailed me to tell me what I was gonna call them about.

Nothing but a steady stream of coincidences but damn... Why can't the world revolve around me all the time?
