Review Focus Bear?

Reviewers mostly say Focus Bear helps them stay on task by blocking distracting sites, guiding routines, prompting breaks, and improving follow-through on reading, meetings, and daily planning. Several users, including people managing ADHD or bipolar symptoms, describe better focus, lower stress, and more structure once they learn the system. The main complaints are practical: setup can feel confusing, schedules and notifications need polish, and some users report serious reliability and account-access problems, including editing failures, paywall issues, and poor support response.

App won’t let me in as it’s blocked by a paywall even though I am paying a subscription. Sent feedback to try and get them to fix this - no reply. I’ve gone through to the website to stop paying for something I can’t use and it’s now saying my password is wrong even though it’s saved and hasn’t changed. Tried to click reset password and it’s not sending me emails to get back into my account even though I know the email is right because I get other emails from focus bear. Feel a bit like I might’ve been scammed here and I can’t stop my subscription!!!

I really like Focus Bear. As an Assistive Technology Support Officer at Third level, I see how Focus Bear can support students who struggle with procrastination, completing tasks and planning. One of my favourite features is helping students stay focussed when reading online as it prevents students drifting or clicking off the point as it prompts them to get back on topic or relevant content. Finally, I find the developers supportive and responsive to suggestions and ideas.

As a bilingual mindset and success coach, I have had the pleasure to use this myself AND recommend this app to both my English and Spanish-speaking clients. It is so easy to use! Also, it really them track their progress, which serves as great motivation for them to reach higher goals. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
