Bullet: Journal, Daily Planner 4+

Number 1 App to Manage ADHD

I’m almost 35 years old and was just diagnosed with ADHD last year. As someone who has had a problem focusing my entire life, this is the ONLY app I will forever use because it helps me organize my daily life to manage not only typical goals but to allow me the ability to quickly type in a thought or “to do” and then forget it and be able to at any time go back in and see what I need to complete in my day. It has everything!!! Allowing you to see what is overdue on your list and how many days you have had it on the list and also updating the day you want it completed easily and checking off that you’ve completed it. I could seriously go on and on about details to this app because every time I think of something it could change to be better; within a couple months of my thought the creator has already changed and updated the app to be even better. This will always be the one and only app that I don’t hesitate to renew each year because it is also affordable. If you like to organize, if you have ADHD or any other type of trouble focusing and can’t keep track of all of your thoughts and making lists on paper over and over again just to lost that paper, this app is for YOU!!!! My husband can download the app and login to share so he can also see what I need to be done so he is able to help me manage life. Seriously couldn’t give this app any other review other than everyone, and I mean everyone could use this in their life!

This. App. Is. Amazing.

I don’t typically write reviews but I feel compelled to do so on this as this app has turned my mental health around. I finally feel like I can declutter my head and have actionable plans. BuJo traditionalists will say you should bullet journal with pen and paper as there’s something magic that occurs in the brain with that method. I say you do you. I tried bullet journaling on paper but I just couldn’t do it. The perceived (by me) pressure to make it pretty and use colored pen sets and doodles just overwhelmed me. And I would forget to have my journal with me and subsequently forget what I needed to do or the thought would pass like dust in the wind never to be recorded or thought of again. I always have my phone with me so this just works. And it’s beautiful and simple yet so robust. I can list and sub list til my heart’s content. I can make things as simple or complex as I would like. I can organize by day, week, month, or year. And habit tracking too! I realized within 30 minutes of doing a brain dump that the price would be justified but that’s just it - the free version (at least as it stands as of the day I’m writing this review) is GOOD. (And there’s web and desktop versions!) I’m so thankful for the creator that I WANT to pay to support them!

Wow, your words truly warmed my heart! It's incredibly rewarding to know that Bullet has made such a positive impact on your mental health. It's wonderful that you're enjoying the flexibility and functionality offered. Your kind words are a big motivation for me to continue improving the app. Don't hesitate to reach out at hamish@bulletjournal.app if you have any suggestions or need anything. Thank you!

Simple and Effective

I have tried SO many apps that attempt to successfully translate bullet journaling into a digital interface. There are others that have more features which I did enjoy (ie more detailed habit and mood tracking), but at the end of the day I found that with the bugs and the unnecessary complexities I couldn’t stick with those. This app is perfectly simple and the closest thing I’ve been able to find that reflects the original BuJo system. After a week employing this as my new system, I can say I’m very happy with the ease of use, clean interface, and perfectly simple design. I can go elsewhere for mood tracking & journaling… this is exactly what I need for a straightforward and sustainable task management system. Highly recommend!
