I could have done with this app or even the web browser version so many years ago… I have been able to easily identify what tasks need to be done and when but, breaking them down and knowing where to start has always been my downfall.I’ve recently moved and all my stuff is piled up around me. I’ve wanted to clean up and get it all packed away so badly but, I just don’t know where to start. I simply put “finish unpacking” into the magic to-do list and even just the first results, breaking up the tasks made me want to cry. The fact that I can have those sub-tasks broken down even more… I can’t. This is going to help so much, I can feel it. The tasks given are just plain and simple and don’t feel condescending at all which, I really struggle with. Sometimes, having another human try and help or break things down for me makes me feel useless or like they’re treating me like a kid. This removes that and I’m so freaking happy.Thank you from me personally and my neurospicy brain. Thank you 💜
My goblin brain thanks you!

I have ADHD and came across the web application for Goblin Tools on forums.The mobile app is magic! It’s built beautifully and gives me all the tools I need in my pocket ☺️ The fact it isn’t subscription based is also incredibly helpful - I know it’s mine and can use it whenever I need, without having to worry about whether it’s “worth it” each month or if I’m going to forget to cancel! The “unwaffle” feature in the formalizer tool is my favourite - brevity isn’t a strong suit of mine (as you can see from above) and in my job, I have written far too many lengthy emails that don’t clearly articulate my point, or overwhelm people. I’ve used the formaliser to speak to my boss about important matters, share messages with clients and it’s absolute magic! I think the best way to demonstrate the value is to show you, so here’s this same review “Formalized” to 4 chillis:“I love the Goblin Tools mobile app for people with ADHD. It's beautifully built and has all the tools I need in one place. Plus, it's not subscription-based, so I don't have to worry about the cost or cancellation. The "unwaffle" feature in the formalizer tool is amazing. It helps me cut down on lengthy emails and effectively communicate with my boss and clients. It's absolute magic!”Thank you for building such a wonderful application - I’ve already gifted it to a friend and would recommend to anyone who needs a little help navigating a neurodiverse existence in a world built for neurotypical brains!
A dyslexics friend

I'm really enjoying this! Being dyslexic, I often struggle with words and find myself rewriting everything over and over again. It can be frustrating because I sometimes have to simplify my thoughts or ideas due to difficulty with spelling or organizing them. However, Goblin tools has been a tremendous help! It allows me to express my ideas and thoughts more effectively, producing far better results than I could achieve on my own. It would be even nicer if it offered UK English instead of American English.=-= My original text in Goblin tools =-=I’m loving this. As a dyslexic I have trouble with words and inevitably end up rewriting everything many times. In this process I end up dumbing down what I want to say because I can’t spell some words or structure my thoughts. Goblin tools helps with me dump my ideas and thoughts and produces way better results than I could. It would be nice if it was UK English vs American.
Literally can’t get better

This app, is quite literally everything I’ve ever needed. I struggle knowing how my emotions come across, or understanding what other peoples emotions means. This app quite literally fixed that entirely. Having the ability to put in what you need to get done, especially if you’re anxious about it, and it break it up into so many little steps is amazing. Because each little step is only little, and that’s perfect. Knowing you can complete each little step and end up at your goal is an unreal feeling. To go the extra mile, struggle with cooking or knowing what to cook? It can tell you that too just put in the ingredients you have. It’s got a judge setting that can be the judge of how something comes across. This app is honestly the most amazing thing I’ve ever come across as someone with high anxiety and struggles to understand emotions. This app is worth £100 not 99p
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!
