If you have ADHD and struggle with using productivity apps & methods long term, you are not alone and you are not broken. Don't see it though the app failed or that you failed. It didn't fail. You didn't fail. It worked for the season that you needed it. It will take time, but do your best not to blame yourself. Use this chance to scratch that explorative or creative itch to find a new app or system that'll work for you in THIS season. ------ If you liked Arianna Bradford's advice & If you're interested in similar advice, there's a great video out there by ADHD Jesse titled "Avoiding Toxic Productivity Advice for ADHD," where the above advice comes from.
I’ve tried many but always end up going back to Apple basic apps- notes, calendar, reminders because they care clean simple to use. The gamified apps are good for a season and then they fizzle out. I’m trying to find the paced app mentioned in the video but can’t find it in the App Store
I’ve tried every app under the sun and what I’m realizing is that the apps just don’t work for me. I hate that I have to use pen and paper but it’s literally the only thing I can stick to. Another app is another reason I have to pick up the phone and get distracted again. Modern life is the worst.
I really like how she is straightforward and sometimes brutally honest without being judgemental or patronizing. This is the first time I've heard of her channel, but I'm definitely going to subscribe after this.

Thanks for this. As an ADHD-Dyslexic I find apps much more useful than the pen. My mind thinks a lot faster than I can write and spell and I'll often forget something I was going to write when I have to slow down to try and figure out how to spell a word. Apps and spell checkers are the only way I can function when it comes to none verbal communication.
Is there a human tracker. Like a pet tracker. To automate my location; to see where my time goes. Like some type of Bluetooth device I leave in my desk to calculate how long I'm gone for. I love to get interrupted by my co-workers but it takes up such a block of my day. By the end of the day I have no idea where my time is gone but I didn't get to my due to'ssss... I would just love to personally see my time by location in feet. Google does an okay job at long-range motion such as job. It sucks from desk to shop and to each work station.
Heard you say some things like "hyperfocus", "overwhelm" and "impulsive spending" and I felt so seen. Could you please share your opinion on the sensa app since it seems very appealing and shows up all over my feed. Newly subscribed to your channel after this video!
I didn't find it either and yet I am in the US App Store. Sent them an email so will update you just in case I get a response regarding which region it's available for.
Constructive criticism for Artful Agenda: It asks too many questions upon start up. For example, it asks how long does it take me to get out of bed. 10 seconds, but that doesn't mean I'm ready to start my day, I still have to stretch and brush my teeth etc and the app doesn't ask about any of that, and even if it did, I wouldn't have the patience to answer. Also the art seems designed for women/girls only. It would be helpful to have a Metro style.
I'm trying to learn some tools because without medication I feel like I'm a different person, in a negative way. Overwhelmed by the videos but still clicked yours. Hope I learn something helpful.
I really need a timer app that warns me out loud when it’s almost done. “5 mins left” So often the timer goes off and I need to come to a stopping point… so turn off the timer and accidentally keep going too long
An app that isn’t mentioned is Tiimo. It’s amazing for time blindness with ADHD. It helps me understand my day visually in time if that makes sense at all and it prompts you too. Example: lunch starts in 5mins or morning routing is almost over etc. It’s incredibly flexible. I’ve been using it on and off for years now and it’s the only app that I’ve stuck to consistently and that actually helps me if that makes sense. It’s even more powerful if you have an Apple Watch it will buzz your wrist. It also has widgets. Great for planning and tasks. I’m just looking for something that has goal planning and breakdown because I struggle with that. I might email the Tiimo tea and ask if that’s something they may consider integrating or making a separate app for. They’re very open to suggestions.
these are cool but i realised while watching i can make post it notes the sticky ones and give each of them 25 mins of time. if you struggle with order you can wake up and arrange your notes any way you want. i dont like regimented things bc of school and indoctrination etc... so imma do this instead cant beat good old paper lets hope i stick to it

That doesn't have anything to do with ADHD. It is common courtesy to the viewers
@@brendalg4 the point of the original comment was referencing our high level of distractibility… yes it’s a common courtesy as well.

Yes i agree with you! These apps are seasonal use. I often go back and forth to different apps depending on the situation
I’ve tried many but always end up going back to Apple basic apps- notes, calendar, reminders because they care clean simple to use. The gamified apps are good for a season and then they fizzle out. I’m trying to find the paced app mentioned in the video but can’t find it in the App Store
😂was about to say I have never consistently used a productivity app ever before.
Thank you stranger🥹

Preciate it. T^T🫶 same to you!! Hope life and everything’s more manageable

I'm struggling to find The Centered App... Would have been helpful to have the mentioned apps in the video description with links etc...
its only for laptops:(
I can’t find it either. I’m on my laptop.
Wow, Ariana Bradford packed in a lot in a few minutes on how to chose and use an app for anyone, not only ADHDers. Thank you!
I bought 2 of them, in disparate hope for change, and left your video for lack of focus, and I'm not even diagnosed yet first time in half a year :(
Did anyone else not find Paced in the App Store?
I didn't find it either and yet I am in the US App Store. Sent them an email so will update you just in case I get a response regarding which region it's available for.

What a fabulous presenter. Off to find out more about Ariana as she clearly gets what its like to have ADHD.

I'm not gonna fool myself that id use any of these apps but I hope it helps others
Tusk - habit tracket
Centered - body double
Artful agenda
Timefinder
Paced
Cool list of tools! Thanks for sharing!
Links would be nice 🥵 the names of the apps are so general I can’t find them in the App Store!
What a bummer to find this video, be so excited about Paced, only to realize it's not in the US Apple Store :(

Is there an app similar to Paced? I can’t use it because it’s not available where I live, I guess. I think it would be awsome but I can’t.
So nothing free for samsung? :(
Wow. Someone who understands. Is there a good ADHD friend finding app?
Anyone can recommend to me a smartwatch for my 11-year kids with adhd? thanks
I made it 3 min, got distracted & clicked on another vid
Excellent, thank you so much!
Could not find Paced app 😢
I didn't find it either and yet I am in the US App Store. Sent them an email so will update you just in case I get a response regarding which region it's available for.
I just see all of these recommendations and can’t see myself using anything for more than a month at best
Try this app - Routinery
What country is Paced available for? In the US and cannot find in App Store
I didn't find it either and yet I am in the US as well. Sent them an email so will update you just in case I get a response regarding which region it's available for.
Just need to get through this video without stopping or getting distracted😂

Thanks I couldn’t find paced app

Centered App seems to be only iOS, someone know a similar android app?
I need a tldr before my attention flies 😅
None of these apps appear to be available in Europe
VPN
Really great advice ty!
Hads anyone used the inflow app/site that helps with ADHD
Is that any good?
Are these apps free?
My handwriting is to messy and inconsistent, so I gave up on paper planners.
I was so encouraged by the video but disappointed by the support at understood.
? How can we help?
After the word suckers I was gone.
I, personally, loved that.
nagreminder is missing :)
Thank you 💖
Anyone know an android app equivalent to the Paced ios app?
Amazing Marvin is a bit similar
Where has she been all my life?! 🙃

THANK YOU
All of these apps recommend is are extremely expensive!!!
Yep, that's what I hate about all of these apps. Try if for free and that slap a yearly subscription - great for that ADHD impulsive spending *sigh*
"what's up... suckers"?
Hmmm.
That’s the exact phrase I used when I showed up to work. I love it.
Tiimo it is for me.
v cool !
This is a SCAMMER app!
tried acreom for a few days, looks good
I didn’t see the paced app in the Apple play store. Do you have the links ?
