These are general planning and organisation tools. They are not treatments, they have not been clinically reviewed, and they are not a substitute for assessment or advice from a qualified clinician. Everyone sees the same list. It is not based on your screening answers.

What it is

Amazing Marvin is a personal task manager with over 100 optional features that you switch on or off. It combines to-do lists, a day planner, a calendar, habits and goals in one app. You start simple and add only what you need.

Key features

  • Super Focus Mode: shows one task at a time instead of the whole list.
  • Task Jar: picks your next task at random when you cannot decide.
  • Day planning: schedule your day and see whether the plan fits the time you have.
  • Procrastination Wizard: walks you through a stuck task step by step.
  • Timers and time tracking: built-in Pomodoro timer and per-task time tracking.
