Original review below, but just bumped right to 5 full stars. Developer reached out on colorblind options, made numerous changes beyond feedback. While I haven’t seen all the new changes, I can confirm several games work significantly better, and a toggle now exists without user profile for colorblind users. GREAT JOB DEV! Thank you for the adjustments. ———Onboarding literally asks if you are colorblind, and regardless of what you say you are repeatedly shown color based puzzles without any patterns/textures to assist those who cannot see colors. Could be matching games based on colors, or games where words are a color and you are supposed to know if the color matches the word. Just not a great showing to be aware enough this condition exists, to ask about it, and to do nothing within the app itself to support users suffering from it.
Developer Response
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you’ve experienced. Ensuring our app is accessible to everyone, including those who are colorblind, is a top priority for us. We appreciate your feedback and would love for you to reach out to us at info@neuronwizard.com so we can better understand the changes needed to support you and others more effectively. Thank you for helping us improve.Update 29/07/2024: We just released an update with improvements to allow color blind individuals to play the games. You can toggle it on on the "Profile"! We hope this helps you!

This app goes through all these questions, reviews picked for sales, then aims to make you commit to a statement that you will use it daily by holding down a button for seconds right before giving you the cost. That is, either you are a liar or you'll buy. I told myself unless the price is too much. I feel bad for anyone who didn't think of such a precaution. I think some nuerodivergent have an issue with lying even if the cost is unbearable. I don't like that. Certainly there was another way to design this.
Developer Response
Hi there,Thank you for your honest feedback, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.We completely understand your concern. The commitment screen is never meant to pressure anyone, it’s actually linked to the free daily workout, which is available at no cost. Its purpose is to gently encourage consistency, something many in the ADHD community find helpful. That said, we hear you, and we’ll look into ways to make this moment feel less pressuring.Also, just to clarify: the questions at the start are needed in order to provide an indication of whether someone might have ADHD or not.Thanks again for sharing your perspective! It helps us make the app better for everyone!
Cringe
WannabeRamone
Every time I see an ADHD app created “by psychologists”, I literally cringe now…how is it NONE of them seem to make an app that doesn’t frustrate me from the very beginning with unclear instructions and unhelpful introductions? Tried to give this a chance because it sounded promising…shoulda known better. First game doesn’t even give you a chance to read the instructions before it starts all on its own…this was supposed to be an impulse control game…then when I try to back out to restart it tells me the next time I access the game it will increase in difficulty…I HAVE ADHD! Issues with instructions seeming unclear is a a well established part of that? Who are these “psychologists” making these apps??? Clearly not those who specialize in ADHD! Yet another ADHD app deleted…At least I wasn’t suckered into purchasing anything through empty promises this time! Predatory opportunists! Don’t waste your time or money!!!
Developer Response
Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience with the app was frustrating. Our goal is to create a helpful and engaging tool for people with ADHD, not to add to their challenges.To clarify, our games are co-designed with psychologists and researchers who specialize in ADHD. They are based on cognitive training principles aimed at strengthening skills like impulse control, attention-switching, and working memory, key areas often impacted by ADHD. If you’re interested, here are some of the research studies that influenced our approach:- https://www.researchgate.net/publication/6944289_Training_Attention-Switching_Ability_in_Adults_With_ADHD- https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38300525/- https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3425/12/2/141That said, we understand that clear instructions are crucial, especially for ADHD users. We take feedback like yours seriously and will revisit our onboarding and game instructions to make them more intuitive. If you have specific suggestions on what would have helped, we’d love to hear them through support@neuronwizard.com as your insights could help us improve the experience for others!Again, we appreciate you giving the app a chance and taking the time to share your thoughts.
Very unfortunate

I really wanted to give this app 5 stars. I was using it for a month straight and was enjoying it thoroughly. Was ready to start recommending it to my peers but unfortunately any concerns I have seems to fall on deaf ears. I sent a message 2 different times addressing 2 separate issues right on there “contact us” page on the app. Not only did i get no response both times, but it also wasn’t in my sent history from my email for proof, so it’s as if it never happened. It would be really nice if someone would just respond, but I am sure they will read this response and still ignore my concerns completely. Won’t even bother getting into what the issues were that I was trying to address because what’s the point? Easy potential 5 stars plummeted to a 1 star simply because they don’t want to put any effort into addressing a supporter/user’s concern
Developer Response
Hi, I'm Cátia. I'm so sorry for this experience, especially after a full month of enjoying the app and wanting to recommend us. We certainly aren't ignoring you. Your messages never reached us and I can't yet tell you why, which is exactly what I want to get to the bottom of. Please email us directly at support@neuronwizard.com. Anything you can tell us about how you sent the first messages would really help us find where they went, and if you're willing to go into the two issues again, we'll look at them properly.
We're excited to share what's new in this update:
• New streak freezes have your back: miss a day and a freeze covers it, so your streak keeps going. Earn them as you train.
• Refreshed icons, plus various bug fixes
Thank you for your continued support and feedback! Enjoy the update!
