"Authentic footage of my dining table", yes woman. This is so relatable. I applaud you for being real, because this is what my house looks like too. I needed to feel this today, like I'm not alone.

[@janetrichard6079]

Thanks for sharing Sam! My house looks like this also! I love it when its clean and organized and feel so defeated and ashamed when its not. Gonna give Sweepy a try!

[@cowsonzambonis6]

I was going to say the SAME thing!! Is it a flat surface? Then it should be covered in stuff, right? ;) This app sounds amazing, and I'm going to let my kids try it as well for their responsibilities around the house!

[@susannatuttapanna2010]

I find it helps not to do a room at a time, but to do the same task across lots of rooms at once, so instead of cleaning a whole room and having to deal with all the varied tasks, then move onto another room and do the same, you can for instance just do the dusting in every room on one day. Then next day clean all the sinks in the house, do all the washing on one day, and so on. it keeps it really simple, you have all the stuff in your hand already, so you can maintain the flow from room to room. Then you can pick a particular week day to do any 'unusual' tasks (things that are irregular/variable/exceptional), like cleaning the windows, or polishing glass ornaments. For things that have to be done every day, like dishes, picking up toys, or feeding animals, set a particular time of day and just stick to that every day. It takes all the thinking out of it. I also prefer to tidy throughout one day, then start cleaning tasks the next. Grouping it this way is much easier than remembering all the things for each room across multiple rooms. You can then just put away bits throughout the week but not obsess over it as you know you have a defined tidying day. I'm not perfect at it and my energy/ motivation levels vary, but I do think grouping tasks and things appropriately is the best way to manage adhd and remove all the details that we get bogged down in.

[@c_and_l]

I am very much the same when I clean. I go around my whole house with one cleaning product, do that in each room, then switch product or task. Much less overwhelming to me.

[@kesskameron1206]

Yes I do this too

[@EightyFourThousands84000s]

This is awesome. I've never thought about doing it like that. I can't wait to try this out

[@mikemyon3570]

Thanks for sharing, these are valuable ideas. 👍🏼

[@racebiketuner]

That sounds like it's worth a try. Thanks.

[@stephaniesmith3544]

An unexpected thing that I find actually helps me is watching decluttering videos. It’s satisfying to watch and sorta gamifies it, and importantly, seeing how quickly people in the videos do a task makes it look less daunting to me so it gives me a temporary boost of motivation to do tasks.

[@racebiketuner]

Thanks for sharing that. I need all the help I can get.

[@Cellottia]

I watch cleaning and de-cluttering videos too! I think it helps a bit with motivation...

[@MakeWay4CJ]

I watch those too. I mainly watch them the day before I plan to do any major cleaning. I find that after watching them I am definitely motivated to take care of my house. I think that’s why those videos are so popular.

[@KiraAfter_Dark]

This is exactly what I needed to keep my apartment together. It's helped me manage my only cleaning my apartment, but other parts of my life too. For example, I added a "room" called Self Care, and it's just basic stuff to do every day or every other day that I tend to forgot. Showers, brushing teeth, eat breakfast. It's great!!

[@spacewolfcub]

Genius! You are a genius! I love this idea so much. :) It’s much more flexible than habit builders or health tracker apps that I’ve tried.

[@pmwehrle]

You can also add a room called social and use it to keep track of staying on top of messaging or calling friends. Saw this idea on my ADHD group

[@letlovedesign3088]

I was just gonna say this is genius as well!!! So brilliant I could hug you for this lol thank you!!

[@AafkeArt]

What a genius idea!

[@meechiebaby493]

I have ADD, my husband and 5 year old both have ADHD. Cleaning my house is a nightmare. Keep in mind that I'm 48, have struggled with executive function since childhood, and I just learned that I have ADD about 2 weeks ago. I'm lost, so I'm really appreciating your videos.

[@rhi963]

@Marissa Miller was literally about to recommend her 🤣

[@patchwork-inspiration-support]

Hello brains 🧠💚😁 How to ADHD & Divergent Design Studios are my 2 fave ADHD KZbinrs! Yo Samdy Sam & Aspergers From The Inside are probably the 2 autistic KZbinrs I watch the most of their videos. Like many neurodivergent females, only starting learning how differently I'm wired after had a neurodivergent kiddo ~ so grateful there such an amazing KZbin community to help in so many ways!

[@julie8234]

Hello, I'm 48 too, received Autism diagnosis last June

[@frolickinglions]

The Facebook group "Neurodivergent Cleaning Crew" and its sister group "Neurodivergent Cooking Crew" is super helpful.

[@TODOMATIO]

I just work w my brain, don't fight against it. We ADHD-rs are just not motivated to clean. But shaming work for us very well as well as deadliness ! I invite a bunch of friends on a certain day and then get up at 4 AM and clean the whole thing in a few hours. In a hurry. I do the same w my upkeep, I can't be bothered to wash my hair. So I schedule at least 1 date. On the DAY OF, I wash my hair and wax.

[@idgyschmitz1833]

Dopamine tied to cleanliness. Mind=blown. Can’t wait to try it.

[@ArtyAntics]

This app is almost perfect. I made my own system based on effort being green amber or pink because red made me anxious and avoid difficult tasks so I made them my fave colour. Decluttering was the No 1 thing that enabled me to take control of my house/executive functioning. It is less overwhelming with less items to manage. I think it was pain/hoarding that originally snapped my out of hyper focused cleaning. I physically couldn’t do it. I personally like routine, it stops me hyper focusing on the whole house and I give myself permission not to clean everything because it’s not ‘the day’. But when I have been ill/shutdown/exhausted from pain or meltdowns I do a ‘what is annoying me the most right now’ list and do the next most anxiety provoking mess so I can regain my calm. If someone happens to be coming over then I do a version of the clutter bugs dirty 30 routine but focus only on the rooms they will see. Collect rubbish up, pick up mess, put items that don’t belong in a tote, surface clean/hoover then move to next room and empty tote as I go along.

[@kittyr6534]

I love the idea of pink instead of red, like you I feel that red would make me anxious and more likely to avoid. Great idea!

[@ferraghamo]

May I ask how do you change colors?

[@truthmerchant1]

I'm still trying to organise my home since I moved in 14 years ago. I've read countless organising books, watch endless videos and made numerous lists and plans, but somehow could never manage to translate all that knowledge into action. Discovering I had ADHD and autism answered so many questions for me and I no longer beat myself up for not being able to do it. And it's a great relief not to keep pushing and thinking "I just need to try harder".

[@jsavannah]

Have you tried Dana K White's decluttering method? It's the best I've found for an ADHD type brain.

[@elr05]

I love your black kitty who was not harmed during the making of this video. I think your videos are very helpful.

[@joyheron7991]

Seeing the living room getting cleaned at the end and the tasks being checked off is very satisfying!!

[@sunnysundaie5037]

I’ve never been a person who dosent do everything to the max so when I learned DOING A LITTLE THING IS BETTER THAN DOING NOTHING it was a game changer. Sometimes it’s hard for me to brush my teeth and floss and mouthwash but if I can convince myself to just do mouthwash my brain goes okay I can brush too and then I can floss! And before I know it I’m washing my face! Thank you for this Video I can already tell it’s going to help my mental health so much 💗

[@TODOMATIO]

This is a common ADHD struggle - basically we need to INVENTORY THINGS DAILY. And if we don't we will forget what we have. So instead of CLEANING (weekly, whatever) I inventory a different part of my room. Just my room. The house is too big and overwhelming! Anyways, by doing a thing like Inventory - pulling everything out and catogorizing it by alphabet, color, category, WHATEVER- it fixed that part of my brain that was very disorganized. Now people think I'm OCD for having to do it, but it became a NEED. Try it!!! You will see how good it makes you feel!

[@sibongilethwala7080]

I liked your satisfied smile when you got dopamine from dusting the TV.

[@heathermakesart]

THIS SOUNDS AMAZING!! I’m definitely going to give it a try because my goodness do I struggle. Autistic, ADHD, single mom to 3 neurodivergent kids (2 have both Autism and ADHD and one ADHD). Sprinkle in a dog and 2 cats and my house has me clinging onto my sanity. I’m also trying to run a small business 😵‍💫 It’s so hard to keep track of everything and always feels like a losing battle. This app sounds like something that might be helpful and I look forward to giving it a go. Thank you so much for everything you teach. I’m a late diagnosis (at 29) and your channel has been so helpful

[@brooke_reiverrose2949]

That sounds like a lot. If you are functioning at all you are winning in my book! Keep at it and best of luck!!!

[@AspienPadda]

I'D BEEN SLOWLY CREATING JUST THIS ON AN EXCEL SPREADSHEET without even knowing it existed! Mine has, difficulty, importance, how often and a spoon count tracker.

[@TomatoesandCheese]

Me too but I had little headings of times on Google keep with the main notes saying 30mins or 40mins and then the swipe to the right tasks saying the tasks that would take that long.

[@lismarcel]

That cleaning sesh at the end... Very satisfying to watch 😺 I'll try out the app because I'm really struggling with daily tasks

[@amberjeanne9308]

I so needed this video today!!! Thank you so much!!! Finally got my autism/ADHD diagnosis!!! I was just watching cleaning videos again and getting discouraged 😳 Thank you so much for your help!!!💗💗💗💗💗💗

[@TODOMATIO]

Another tip. Divide any of your chore in an even amount of 3. Like let's say you have a house - count the rooms, divide them by 3. And only commit to do 3 of anything for a day. Or even take just 3 small chores and do them. If writing a book, write just 3 chapters. For some reason my ADHD brain loves number 3. if you finish 3, have a snack(short 1 hr break), and go for 3 more! Become the THREE-QUEEN!!

[@rebeccaplowman6367]

I loved this app! Getting my partner to use it is another story...

[@meredithf.1022]

Thank you, Sam, for reaching out to Sweepy on our behalf. I'm so excited to download it and check it out. I also love the "authentic" footage of your home, and your cat at the end... I relate to all of it! 😁

[@Typanoid]

I love that little bit with the cat at the end :)

[@graceface418]

I've made many personalized cleaning lists over the years and always fail when I inevitably have a few 'bad' functioning day and feel overwhelmed at where to start again. This app seems like it might help solve that problem for me. Thanks, Sam. I'll give it a go :)

[@Cellottia]

Same here... I'll give this a go 😁

[@deborahlee8135]

So happy about this because I've realised I need small wins and details to get through too.

[@rebzyrebz308]

‘The hyperfocus method is not a long term strategy!’ I me and my full day-2days of cleaning my room every 6 months feel called out

[@linden5165]

My dining table looks the exactly same, and my coffee table, and many other surfaces too. The flotsam and jetsam of life is quite annoying. I often resort to throwing things into junk drawers which is often just delaying figuring out what to do with stuff. I am exactly the same as far as coping strategies before and after having kids. I'm still working on the after! I just don't know what my goals are. I guess a livable space would be reasonable. I just find I have a lot of feelings and associations tied to mess and cleanliness both. There's more than executive functioning to work through, there's some major stress and emotion too as well as the negotiation with family members for contribution. It's not easy.

[@AurorasWindow]

Ok. I don’t know what to say, other than I feel seen. I didn’t know that cleaning hyper-focus was a thing. I always thought I had some weird obsessive behavior related to cleaning. For example, cleaning the bathroom could take me 3 hours of obsessive cleaning, going into every detail, not being able to stop. My brother once grabbed me from my shoulders and took me out of the kitchen at like 3 am after I’ve been cleaning the stove for hours. I only cleaned like this because if I start I can’t stop, so I needed to big chunk of time. And then I had a child while working full time. No more big chunks of time, so I had to somehow learn to clean in smaller increments. I have to keep telling myself that it’s ok to just clean the sink and not the whole bathroom. Before I wouldn’t even clean the sink if I didn’t have 3 hours to spend on cleaning. Wow. Thanks for the video!

[@krysmueller8694]

Your videos were what helped me figure out I'm autistic. I'm 33, the same age you where when you got diagnosed, and I related to just everything you talked about in your Could YOU Be autistic? Video and Childhood Traits video. Thank you so much! I'm going through the process of a formal diagnosis now. This app actually does look very cool, and I'm going to try it out!

[@hippyvanobsessed]

Oh my God, Driving down the motorway in 2nd gear.... I was nearly in tears. What a beautiful and accurate metaphor!

[@samhamblin7962]

Thank you! I struggle with this a lot cos I get overwhelmed very easily and have trouble with anything other than "Clean every piece of everything there is, and make sure you finish it all today" (0 or 100) That doesn't help, so I end up shutting down but then things get more chaotic and I get even more overwhelmed. I always have to make a check list of each task but then you end up with a front and back page full of checkboxes that seem incredibly daunting. This has been really stressing me out, especially the last few days, so this video came at the perfect time. Thanks! 😁 Going to download the app now.

[@Caliemha]

I recently started on vyvanse, and it helps me not get too overwhelmed of all the tasks. However, I still focus on nitty gritty details. So my boyfriend and I have separated the cleaning tasks such that he does the "general" cleaning in the house, and I sort out and deep clean a specific area.

[@nikkis7375]

“If you’re low on spoons” it’s official. I love you. Lol

[@Destiny_Grice]

Thank you so much for sharing your find! This has actually given me the first bit of hope I’ve felt that I can do something -even if it’s just clean the house- in a long long time🤍 Forever grateful for your videos -D

[@Cellottia]

What do you mean, ' _just_ clean the house? Cleaning the house is akin to climbing my own mini-Everest! Or more like painting the Forth road bridge, only I can't get it finished before it's time to begin again... Give yourself lots of credit, lots and lots of credit/praise/approval for cleaning the house! 👏🎊👏🎊👏

[@MoMoLuv87]

I’m definitely trying out this app. Thank you so much for posting this video. I feel relief and not so alone knowing that there are many of us going through these same struggles. I’m not going to lie, I actually got excited by the sound when the task was complete 😄

[@alisonwright2508]

I got this app because of your review. Decided to pay so I can include my family - day 1 and it’s working better than I could have hoped.

[@c_and_l]

I'm good with cleaning. What I REALLY need is an app like this for school so I can do it with all my class stuff, research stuff, TA duties, etc..

[@renataisidora9963]

Maybe Routinery or Tiimo!

[@TheRogueDM]

Both me and my partner have ADHD. Our house is small as it is but it's never properly clean. As well as all the stuff in the house, like all of my partner's miniatures, my books, etc. we also have a long-haired cat. Btw your cat is super chill. I wish my cat would sit still while we hoover but no. She's trying to run away from it as much as possible.

[@michaelflensborg3541]

I almost cried of relief when I saw how this is soo must easier then the "system" I am using now :D

[@hannahdiaz800]

I almost cried when you said you’re a mom !! I feel so understood

[@katehall2027]

I love Sweepy!

[@jacquicanham4756]

Life. Changed!!! I down loaded Sweepy! My house and sanity are immeasurably improved!! I could never "see" the dirty bath, or the dust on the side of the hallway. Having a list and timeline has really helped. I have tweeked the times to be more appropriate to my level of cleanliness. And added new jobs as I notice them. My life is truly changed

[@VFCforever]

Your face when you checked off Clean TV 😂 love it! Thank you so much for this video! I'm going to check out this app 😊

[@klassikbrasil]

That's awesome! I'm supposed to have a session with my coach soon about cleaning; this will cut down our work a lot!

[@AutisMinasClearingClutter]

I use Sweepy too! I've had it for two years or so. For the first year or so I completely forgot about it as per usual, but now that I divided it into smaller tasks it helps me so much!

[@brunoboaz7656]

I am an old divergent widower and I just can't find the motivation to do all that cleaning just to have to come back a week later and do it all over again. My tiny apartment isn't all that clean but its home.

[@strawbearrySmoothie]

I've been living in an apartment by myself for the last two years, struggling to motivate myself to clean near as much as I'd like, which then adds to my stress. And wow, this app actually got me to power through cleaning the bathroom. Just being able to break everything into tasks rather than "clean this area" helped a lot more than I could've expected. Thanks a lot for this video! Going to do another part of the apartment I've been procrastinating tomorrow, and I think this will help me actually be consistent too.

[@lauren8627]

How can I only have a one day a week vacuum schedule with a toddler and dog that bring dirt inside in copious amounts. It's so hard because the house is never in a 'clean state' it's a constant work in progress and I hate it. There is NO GRATIFICATION. Cleaning schedules just don't work for me. I seriously appreciate your perspective as a Mum with ADHD. I am so tired of needing a hyperfocus RAGE CLEAN (with a few choice swear words under my breath loudly) to get anything done. I live with whatever the opposite of a 'detail oriented person' is. He literally doesn't see mess, which is actually far more infuriating than doing it on purpose. It's the equivalent of getting mad at someone who is blind for not being able to see.

[@sunnaarnadottir5384]

I've used this app for a few weeks myself, discovered it the same way too. It's super helpful and that little dopamine rush when you tick things off makes it so much more fun and tolerable

[@RSJfan05]

Thanks for the video this will help me out. With the ADHD & High Functioning Autism cleaning isn’t something that I’m thrilled to do & will often get distracted.

[@jayjayripoff]

Omg, you are absolutely describing my life. I am researching ways of helping my son, who may be autistic, but your videos are showing me insights that really sound like myself and some of the ways I've always ended up coping with things, even recently. This hyperfocus situation, I know I do react to work tasks like that, and it has just cost me my electrical apprenticeship placement, and it may be affecting my household and living standards. At 35 years old now, I'm beginning to wonder if my friends and family have been pretty lenient with me, and never really made me assess my own behavior. :-/ I hope I can help my son and understand him better through more research and listening to more of your videos. Thank you, I am grateful to you and your channel, you are making a difference. X

[@rhi963]

oh Sam how i've missed seeing your beautiful glowing face! this video came at the perfect time (your content has an uncanny ability to arrive at the ideal time to solve my current issues) because ive been battling an insanely messy house and my regular list in my notebook just isnt cutting it anymore. cant wait to try sweepy! best wishes, prayers, and good energy to you and your family!

[@susanne1470]

I just set up the app and I'm so excited! I realized a few months ago that I actually need to split up the room in tasks and that not every task is due after the same amount. I actually had a spreadsheet where I could cross off things I've done (yay, dopamine!). This app is basically all of that but without paper and less overwhelm. Thanks so much 🤗🤓

[@MirandaPurpleClouds]

Saved this video forever ago but im so glad i didnt deleted it from Watch later. Im downloading the app right now and will set everything up as soon as possible

[@Rahmspinatkeks]

Dear god thank you for gamification...all the big tasks in my life like my uni, eating better and loosing weight and now cleaning my home would not be possible without making everything fun...as soon as I am home from work i feel like all the dopamine just leaves my body at the front door and i thank you so so much for this app because my lazyness allowed the chaos to take over and by now i feel like i gained more controll over it ❤ thanks so so much!!!

[@alexba1ley]

Thank you so much for sharing Sweepy! I've been using it for two weeks, and having recognition and tracking of my housework has really motivated me to clean more and helped me feel more capable. Now every time I see something I cleaned I feel proud. It reminds me I am capable of accomplishing other things in life too.

[@catherinethiemann9760]

Thank you for making a house cleaning app look like so much fun! I've been using it since the new year, catching up on long-deferred tasks. Everything is looking better, and I enjoy my home so much more, now that there's less dust & clutter. I hadn't realized how much energy I was losing to the stress of that visual distraction. I love the dopamine hit of the "task finished" bell, and I love seeing all green "shiny clean" icons after my week of work. Sweepy makes tiresome chores not exactly fun, but *enough* fun that they are worth the effort.

[@femininityfaith7920]

Love this!!! THANKYOU!!! Mother of 4, 2kitties, 4 kittens (currently) and helping 2 elderly parents, while remaining self employed, Who just went through 4.5 years of trauma & escaped & in non demanding recovery,. having to start all over from ground zero with added depression and anxiety. I'm a completely different person now and I have to accept it, instead of waiting for my old self to get back 😥. ♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@portraitoftheautist]

Every video on this channel contains a revelation for me, thank you

[@cephyc2395]

I had been using Habitica but muddling personal, studying, and cleaning just wasn't working for me. I have school aged kids and I really like that you can set this up where they can help with the household to-do list too. I really like the bar on each task showing how recently it was done so that clues me in that I don't need to pay attention to the thing right now. It looks like once it's set up and fine-tuned it will take a lot of the thinking out of when and how often to do something which is what I need. Thank you for this video!

[@rosesanderson4625]

Once I have a habit it's there, but skip anything more than once and it all goes to shit. And shifting or adding to the schedule is painful. Hopefully this helps!

[@spiicyliime22]

Love your videos SO much. So relatable and so funny too :) I learned the same thing thing after having kids as well. Hyper focus can be amazing to use for cleaning productivity, but not when little people need you. Was so frustrated trying to figure out a way to balance it all and force myself to do tiny tasks here, there and everywhere when I had the chance/motivation to do so instead of hyper focusing. It still bothers me that I can’t just go crazy and clean everything when I get the urge, but trying to balance tasks more means I’m more present with my kids and that’s huge. Keep up the fantastic content :)

[@Cheskaz]

Thank you for a great video! I also absolutely loved this analogy: "Using hyperfocus as tool to get those things done is kind of like driving on the motorway in second gear; you'll get there...but you'll burn through a lot of fuel and nothing will work afterwards."

[@MegInWhispers]

THANK YOU! i struggle w executive functioning due to PTSD and neuroplastic pain symptoms nowadays. it wasn't always like this, so i miss the past when it used to be easier and internally shame myself for not being able enough to be at the same standard i used to be, which helps no one. I'm downloading this app today and I'm excited to try it!

[@oscox63]

Wow thank you for sharing this it’s truly needed for my household 🥰

[@jenarobinson1723]

Thanks that's great advice. I do a couple of things to help myself. Paying a cleaner for 2 hours a fortnight (bathroom and kitchen) ensures I keep those rooms tidy enough to he cleaned AND a stick vac (see you have one too) so so much better than the alternatives

[@BreMue]

I'll take a meh stick vac over an amazing normal vac any day. If I had a normal vac I'd never use it

[@somomm733]

Thank you!!!! Have been trying to do this in a journal for so long but it just overwhelms me and I don't know where to start to start...really great to just be able to dive in and not have to get bogged down in all the small details

[@doreal]

This is what I've needed. Thank you, Sam.

[@Ricksy_Bizness]

Loved the ending to this video lol watching you and seeing your kitty was really reassuring :) thank you for all you do

[@juelyworsley7965]

Funny you mentioned base boards. That is the one thing in my house I take the most pleasure in getting cleaned.

[@HAlC-up4hm]

OMG. Downloading now. Thank you!! :D

[@MsPinkAndBlack]

Thanks for this! The dust the TV part was adorable lol!

[@reneehathoway2635]

This Sweepy app sounds like something to help me with my very detail oriented mind which struggles with household executive functioning

[@brooke_reiverrose2949]

Time lapse at end was so satisfying. Could be therapy, srsly. Love that your cat was not afraid of the vacuum Sweepy, will be checking out your app!

[@Lunautau101]

I found the app on my own and MAN where was this when I was in college. Every time I settle down to clean I kinda get in this overwhelmed fog bc I keep seeing things I should be doing but I keep bouncing around/getting distracted (you have no idea how many times I got yelled at for not realizing I sat down and started watching tv). I would go s o slow, cleaning my room was a day long endeavor. Having the tasks in each room listed out with the degradation system is SUPER helpful bc I also don’t realize when was the last time I cleaned something and I know exactly which things to tackle and I go so much faster. And the green bar is super satisfying 😄

[@PlanetZhooZhoo]

Thanks Sam, that's a great find! I'm always on a mission to declutter as I collect things for "projects" so this might be great to help with my personal annual challenge of getting rid of 365 things in a year. I'll have a look!

[@WindspielArt]

Thanks for sharing this app. Looks really helpful and I will try it out. (Maybe starting next month because beginning of March there will come someone who evaluates how much help I need and the person helping me right now said if it's too tidy they will probably deny any help at all... even if my Doc and the person helping me right now think I need it. That one person at that one day will decide if I will get the help further on or not... *sigh*) And thank you for mentioning that you reached out to them and not the other way around. While I think you wouldn't share something you don't stand behind even if it was the other way around... It feels nice to know that you tested the app, liked it and then asked for a sponsorship (and they accepted!) :D

[@jennifergauthier3282]

Well, I've got the app. Let's see what I can set up. Generally, I can't even begin to consider getting started. I hope this helps 💗💗💗💗 Thank you for the suggestion, and it's always wonderful to see you 😍

[@whitneymason406]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing this resource! ❤

[@emmastollery1648]

I didn’t realise that my lifelong struggles with keeping my house clean and tidy had anything to do with autism. I thought I was just deficient in some way especially as “most” mums seemed so much more organised than me! I also see exactly everything that needs doing and so it is just overwhelming. I loved how you describe the “clean the bathroom “ as being a huge deal….and it is certainly the thought processes and struggles there that put me off starting. I have 4 children and so cleaning and tidying has pretty much felt overwhelming since my second was born! So this is a long way to explain that I will try that app. ❤ I listened to your video on ADHD and im pretty certain I have that combination….like you I can be chatty and almost run on a Duracell battery and then just need complete silence at other times. Your video gave me some soothing in that Im not the only one with a slightly strange combination of symptoms! Thanks for sharing your experiences . X

[@labertasche58]

I was looking for tips to clean with adhd because my home is drowning in chaos and it's really not helping mental health! Fingers crossed this works for me as well as it does many others here, even just a little bit. Thank you for the recommendation! I also appreciate you showing some of your own irl chaos as it did make me feel a lot better about my own 😅

[@jenniferschiller7742]

Thank you for sharing about this app, I’m gonna give it a try. I might’ve screamed a couple times because the extra sound effects really startled me. I’m listening while out for a walk, and I found the extra sound effects and noises in the video really overwhelming. But I really need help with figuring out how to manage with my lack of executive functioning so I really appreciated the information. Thank you

[@RoryBland]

Just downloaded the app and thanks for an incredibly informative video!

[@BrazenNL]

Amazing. I'm going to try this. Thank you.

Wow! So excited to try this. I think it will really help. Thank you so much for sharing! And thank you for sharing the authentic video of your home. It makes me feel so much better to know I’m not the only one who struggles this way. Love that purple sofa BTW ❤️❤️❤️

There are very large areas in my spaces that I do not see, and I'm not just talking about the cuts in my visual field. I willfully do not see them so as to avoid the great anxiety and grief associated with them - and they are often piled on other things. To set up this app, I would need to be looking at so incredibly much - and we haven't lived in this apartment for a full 2 years yet - my room at home is nightmarish. So, I'm nor sure I could use this, and I will still share it with people (not facebook - can't handle that).

Maybe try with a few tasks in areas you're comfortable with and slowly add in some of the areas that cause you anxiety? I totally get you though, sometimes even just making the to do list trips me out

I've have been writing out in a book with rooms to clean and things to do but again. Its not broken down enough for me sometimes. So I'll give this a good thanks

My big ol' finger hit the dislike on this for a second, but I quickly fixed it. This app sounds really cool! I have been struggling with exactly this issue!

[@lucindanonhebel5329]

You're a fab communicator! You explain and express yourself beautifully! Also all my surfaces look exactly like that. 😊

[@demonschnauzer1555]

Thanks for sharing, this app seems like it was designed in my dreams, I’ll try it out

[@navigatingautismwithdani]

This really helped me!! I totally always use my superfocus to try to achieve cleaning but then I over do and burn out. Gonna check out the App, hoping it will help!! Thanks!

This was a great video. I was a little hesitant when I realized you were promoting an app, but I'm glad I stuck around. I am a very organized messy person. I like to organize information and tools(my tools are a disaster right now, so i feel like a liar) , but when it comes to cleaning/ tidying up, I do very poorly... Just remembered I needed to wash my truck today, but its too late now...

[@Cayleona]

Definitely going to try it!!

[@zadekeys2194]

My system is something like this: 1. Identify task and make a list 2. Set amount of time to complete task. 3. Set a countdown timer and start task. 4. Tick off task in list.

Thank you for this video. I'd never heard of this app but I've tried several others. The thing that sold me on this one is "vacation mode". I'm bilocational and every 3rd week, I'm in a completely different town with a completely different schedule. In other apps I had to just ignore or turn off all those daily reminders every time I changed towns and changed back. This just has "vacation mode" where I can shut off all the reminders for when I'm home and just use a note-taking app for what I need to get done the one week I'm away. TYSM for sharing this app and your experience!

The app so far is brilliant! With the premium version I can add my family member (at no extra cost) and I can even assign them tasks. This just took delagating tasks to a new level! :) And myself and my kids included get the benifit of seeing how many tasks completed each day. :) Love the simplicity and gamification aspects. And especially that the tasks "decay" which give a real visual of how "urgent" each task is. :) Reduces overwhelm as you can set up as many individual tasks per room as you want. so much easier to do one little task, than get overwhelmed with where to start or don't have energy to "clean bathroom".

You just saved my sanity! Thank you for posting! ❤

[@paulanoro4335]

Thanks so much for recommending this app, I have had it for 2 months now since I first watched this video and the app has changed my life completely.❤

[@CollecTortoise]

Am listening to this while cleaning my bathroom. Alsof de duivel ermee speelt.

[@tumakbaluk]

Thank you for showing me this app! My ADD brain really needs this kind of thing.

[@caitlinbrookes2975]

This is INCREDIBLE! I am so glad I came across this video! I will definitely set up this app :)
