Supports new habits and routines

Thruday helps you build daily routines with visual cues, reminders and notifications that make habits easier to follow. Create routines for your morning, evening, working day or school day, and bring more structure to the parts of the day that are easiest to lose track of.

Unlike other planner and calendar apps, we put daily planning, visual routines, task lists, mood tracking, and focus timer tools into one app, helping you stay organised and plan around real-life energy and attention. Built for ADHD, AuDHD and autism, it also works well for forgetful people.

To-do lists

To-do lists that help you keep things visual and in view. Add subtasks, reorder tasks easily, and see everything in one calm space with colour-coded priorities and flexible lists.

Priority-driven

Simple, visual and no pressure

Mood tracking for every day

Thruday makes mood tracking simple, helping you record emotions, thoughts and energy throughout the day in a way that feels clear and easy to use. Log how you are feeling in the moment, spot patterns over time and build more self-awareness with a better understanding of what affects your mood day to day.

Journal and notes

Keep a private journal for thoughts, notes and brain dumps that only you can see. Write freely, capture ideas before they vanish, and come back to personal reflections whenever you need them.

Thruday makes it really easy to plan my schedule. It’s visual, easy to use and flexible enough that it helps me at university, at work and during the day.

Harold Belozy

Fantastic app which is so easy to use. It keeps me organised and on schedule which is more than other apps have managed to do so far. Would highly recommend it to others who struggle to remember things. It has changed my life!

Zennor97

If you have issues with remembering, scheduling etc then this app is for you. It’s almost like having a personal assistant in your pocket! To have the ability to keep notes, checklists, my schedule, appointments etc all in one place has been a godsend with reminders and alerts to give me that ‘nudge’ I often need!

Hayziie

I’ve never been good in being productive and organised and had to use different things which made it even worse. Having an app where I got my notes, checklists, reminders and help from my partner to manage it has changed me, reeled in a promotion at work and I feel so much less stressed. Would highly recommend to anyone who is neurodivergent and struggling.

Addie User

My experience with Thruday so far has exceeded expectations! If you are looking for some extra help with organising your day and your life, then look no further. Will be using this App and it’s great features for the foreseeable!

Routines, reminders and planning that work together

Log your mood and energy while you plan your day

Mood tracking isn't just for those who have ADHD, autism, epilepsy or other challenges that affect daily life. Thruday keeps mood tracking alongside planning instead of pushing it into a separate app or a separate habit. That makes it easier to notice patterns, understand harder days, and make changes when energy, focus, or motivation feel different.

See a clear visual plan of what your day looks like

A neurodivergent-friendly app provides clear daily visual plans showing the shape of your day, so it is easier to see what is happening, what is next, and what needs to move when plans change. That helps turn the day into something you can actually follow, not just something you are trying to keep up with.

What is Thruday?

Thruday is a neurodivergent-friendly daily planner app founded by Andy Cresswell, built from lived experience of ADHD, Autism and Epilepsy and backed by science-based research. It helps individuals and families plan routines, manage tasks, track mood, and stay focused using visual schedules, reminders, and collaborative support tools. Thruday is designed to reduce overwhelm, improve productivity, reduce time-blindness and support everyday life for people with ADHD, Autism, and executive dysfunction.

Who is Thruday built for?

Thruday is neurodivergent-friendly, designed and built for:

  • People who forget things easily
  • People with ADHD / ADD
  • People on the Autism spectrum
  • Anyone dealing with anxiety, depression, brain injury, PTSD
  • People experiencing executive dysfunction or daily time blindness
  • Carers, support workers, or loved ones helping someone plan their day

If you ever feel overwhelmed, disorganised, or misunderstood – Thruday was made for you.

What can you do with Thruday?

Thruday helps you plan visually, build routines, set reminders, track mood, and stay on top of the day in one place. It is designed to make daily planning feel clearer, more flexible, and easier to keep coming back to.

What makes Thruday different to other planning apps?

Thruday was built from real lived experience, long-term research, and years of refining what actually helps people get through the day with more clarity. We focus on flexible visual planning, better time awareness, routines, reminders, and wellbeing tools that work together in real life. Everything in Thruday is designed to create real daily impact for people who need planning to feel practical, supportive, and sustainable.

How does Thruday help with time awareness?

Thruday helps build better time awareness and make the day easier to see and follow with visual planning, reminders, routines, and a clearer sense of what is coming next. That can make it easier to stay connected to time without holding everything in your head.

Is Thruday useful as an ADHD planner app?

Yes. Thruday helps with ADHD planning by making the day more visual, flexible and easier to return to when attention shifts. You can build routines, manage tasks, use reminders and adjust plans when things change, so the day feels easier to see and follow.

How does Thruday support autistic people with routines?

Thruday helps autistic people create visual routines, break the day into clear steps and use reminders for tasks, transitions and repeatable parts of daily life.

Assistants make this support more hands-on. A parent, carer, partner or trusted person can help with planning, routines and day-to-day structure while the person using Thruday stays independent and in control of their own day.

Where can I download Thruday?

You can download Thruday on Apple and Android devices through the Apple App Store and Google Play. Thruday is also available on the web for free.

How much does it cost to use Thruday?

Thruday includes free visual planning and to-do list features, with no credit card required to get started. Optional premium subscriptions unlock extra features, but you can begin planning, building routines, and organising tasks for free.

Does Thruday have advertising in the app?

No. Thruday is designed to be distraction-free, and we do not include advertising in the app. We are committed to keeping the core planning experience free without ads.

Are my data and privacy safe and secure with Thruday?

We take privacy and security seriously and use strict measures to protect your data. We do not sell your data to third parties. We do use limited anonymous data to help the app run reliably, and you can read more in our privacy policy.
