A collection of small, simple tools, for when things feel too big or complicated
Goblin Tools helps turn overwhelming tasks, confusing messages, difficult decisions, and messy thoughts into manageable next steps.
This is the official Goblin Tools app associated with goblin.tools. Beware of unofficial copycats. They are not affiliated with Goblin Tools, and some may be misleading or unsafe. Only trust the official app from the verified Goblin Tools publisher.
Created with neurodivergent people in mind, Goblin Tools is a collection of tiny, clever helpers for everyday life. It can support people with ADHD, autism, executive dysfunction, chronic illness, low-energy days, and anyone who could use a little help getting things done.
You get:
- Magic ToDo: Break overwhelming tasks into clear, bite-sized steps
- Formalizer: Rewrite text to match the tone, style, or level of formality you need
- Judge: Get a second opinion on the mood, emotion, or intent behind a message
- Professor: Turn complicated subjects into explanations that are easier to understand
- Taskmaster: Work through your to-do list one step at a time, without losing focus
- Consultant: Compare options and get help making a decision
- Estimator: Create rough time estimates for tasks and activities
- Compiler: Transform a messy brain dump into an organized list of actions
- Chef: Invent recipes using the ingredients you already have
Goblin Tools Pro unlocks features that rely on ongoing online services, storage, and continued development, and therefore cannot be sustainably provided for a single fixed purchase price.
With Goblin Tools Pro, you can:
- Keep your data continuously synced between devices
- Create and reuse templates for to-do items
- Share the lists you create
- Make custom Formalizer tones and use your own voice
- Access your history across all Goblin Tools
- Use additional Pro features as they are introduced
Use Goblin Tools for productivity, planning, communication, decision-making, learning, cooking, and getting unstuck when your brain refuses to cooperate.
It is useful for anyone, but especially designed to help untangle the neurospicy challenges of ADHD, autism, executive dysfunction, spoonie life, and more.
Purchasing the official app helps keep the Goblin Tools website free and ad-free for everyone, while Goblin Tools Pro supports the ongoing services behind its connected features.
The app developers clearly know their demographic because the specificity of the ‘breaking down’ feature demonstrates they understand the difficulties around writing lists. For someone with ADHD and OCD it makes writing lists a breeze. I can simply use the highest spiciness level and remove tasks that don’t apply to my situation. The estimation time on task completion is a little off, with some tasks like dishes and laundry being 5h + estimation though. The judge and formaliser options are also legitimately helpful. They give insightful answers that break down language use and how it can be interpreted which is so useful for someone who struggles to interpret social cues and tone from messages. The level of understanding that this app/website provides makes it feels like you’ve asked a human to help you, rather than a robot. I 100% recommend giving it a try. The website is perfectly fine to use on a regular basis, but I chose to support the work the developers have put in and buy the app. It runs a little smoother on the app anyways 🙂.
🙌🏼 THIS APP IS A LIFE CHANGER!! 🙌🏼
Do The Hula
I have used Goblin Tools online for maybe a year now and I am beyond excited to see the app available! I used to struggle with sequencing tasks and procrastination, but now I just type in what I need to do into Magic To-Do and Goblin tools breaks the task down into achievable and sensible steps. I then carry out the tasks quickly with focus. And this is only one part of the app. There is also options to enhance communication and understanding, time management, meal inspiration (just type in what food you have on hand and it will give you a meal suggestion), it can organise tasks from your brain dump, it can suggest how to reword a message in a myriad of ways (‘less snarky’ is a good one for diplomacy). I honestly would have paid a lot more to own this app. It is my life saver. Thank you Goblin Tools Team! You have made me feel like I am completely winning at being a grown up.
Practical, Helpful, and Endless fun!
The Kree
I bought the Goblin Tools app the second I first heard about it on TicTok! This is seriously the greatest thing ever! It’s so helpful and it really takes the anxiety out of big, daunting tasks that I’ve been procrastinating over for months. I love the tag line, “breaking things down so you don’t”, very clever indeed. The chef aspect is wonderful!When I downloaded this, my mum and I spent hours sitting in the lounge room converting simple sentences into “more sarcastic”, and “more passionate” versions of themselves. It was a hoot! But seriously, I will absolutely using that aspect on assignments and emails etc!This app is everything!!
Amazing tools would be better if they didn’t crash

As someone with ADHD I was recommended to use goblin tools and the functions it has are amazing. HOWEVER it seems that I can’t get through one use of the app without it crashing!! Which is not helpful when i’m trying to use the app to organise assignment tasks that have a deadline. I found less crashing occurred on the website but there were still some glitches where it froze on the task manager. Please please please can someone fix these app bugs, considering I spent money on this app I don’t think it should be constantly crashing. Overall amazing concept great tools available within the app WHEN they decide to work.
V2.1.1 is here! A much cleaner native app, with support for Pro accounts with full syncing and all the other fanciness. It's also a new base to build up from, including (some time in the future) widgets, notifications, and more!
Now with added bugfixes!
