Review summary

Reviews largely condemn Brainway for misleading or undisclosed pricing, auto-renewal traps, and charges after cancellation, with many reporting difficulty canceling, automated or unhelpful customer service, and non-refund policies. A minority note initial value, finding the content simple and enabling procrastination-awareness exercises. Overall sentiment skews negative due to business practices and refund handling, though some users still find short-term usefulness in the guided reminders and basic structure.
Pros
  • Helps users identify procrastination patterns and gain clarity on tasks.
  • Provides simple, manageable lessons and exercises.
  • Early positive value; some users report feeling enlightened and that it meets their needs initially.
Cons
  • Unclear or deceptive pricing, with free trials leading to unexpected monthly charges.
  • Difficulty canceling and recurring charges after cancellation or account deletion; limited cancellation options.
  • Refunds are often denied; non-refundable policy cited by support.
  • Poor customer service with automated or unhelpful responses.
  • App delivers limited value for the price (described by some as mostly a basic checklist).

2026-06-01 Cc***** This app is a mess. Clearly designed just to keep you paying. Impossible to navigate. Don’t bother. Waste of money

2026-05-31 vs***** I manage my daily tasks and focus sessions. The interface is clean, simple, and very easy to use. I really love the productivity planner and focus tools because they help me stay organized without feeling overwhelmed.

2026-05-20 Jo***** The product was cumbersome and hard to set up and maintain. They set you up on autopay and if you cancel they don’t refund you.

2026-05-14 wa***** Unfortunately, I paid for the app and then I paid for the unlimited package before the app reveals itself entirely. This app is too much work for a person with ADHD. It wants you to read articles, you’re supposed to check off what your weight is, how you’re feeling what your mood is etc. it give gives zero productivity. I was looking for an app that would send you Reminders time to do this or time to do that and it’s not that at all.. Don’t waste your time.

2026-05-11 28***** Never add this app! Unauthorized fraudulent charges. No notice before charges are placed on account. Little to customer support regarding charges.

2026-05-10 Ti***** A personal way to learn of my triggers with new understanding. Then to plan a fix. Gentle, informative. Go for it!

2026-05-07 We***** Like another review, it’s misleading. I thought I had cancelled through the app at the end of my free trial. I had not. I’ve sent an email hoping that it will be cancelled before I’m charged yet again. I rarely write negative reviews, but hopefully this will save someone some money and a wild goose chase.

2026-05-04 Th***** After signing up for what I expected was a little taste of the experience, I was billed $30 for the monthly fee which was not disclosed. There’s also no place to remove a credit card aside from contacting the company. This app is a SCAM!! And their developer response to everyone in the same situation is the same. I never used the product and their fee structure was never disclosed. Save yourself money and don’t sign up for this BS app.
