Attention Age Support
Getting started
Install the app and take the five-minute baseline — no account or signup. You can try a 20-second practice challenge first. Your result and everything you do afterward stays on your device.
Taking the test
The test is three short timed tasks: Signal Watch, Interference and Tracking. Find a quiet moment, hold your phone comfortably, and respond as quickly and accurately as you can. Interruptions (calls, switching apps) void the current task and you simply redo it.
Your Attention Index
You get a 0–100 Attention Index and five category scores, each explained in the app. It is a game-based performance score — not an age, a percentile or a medical test. Sessions that look unrepresentative (for example, tapping everything) are flagged. Results from versions before 1.2 were shown on a retired age scale; they stay in your history, labelled as v1, and use the same category formulas so they remain comparable. Full details: how scoring works.
Practice
Signal Watch, Interference and Tracking are free to practice. Pro adds seven more drills with adaptive difficulty and mastery, plus Quick (~2 min), Standard (~5 min) and Extended (~10 min) daily circuits that lean toward your lowest category in the latest session.
Weekly re-tests
Re-tests unlock after five practice sessions or seven days, then open every seven days — on any day that suits you. They use the same tasks and scoring as your baseline, and results are always free. Changes under 5 points are described as "about the same".
Daily Signal
A free 20-second challenge. Everyone playing on the same calendar date gets the same pattern. You can also play it on the website; browser results aren't directly comparable with the app because of device timing differences.
Deep Work
Focus sessions with an optional task name and soundscape. 10 and 25 minute sessions with Silence or Brown Noise are free; 45 and 90 minute sessions and the Rain and Deep Field soundscapes are part of Pro. The countdown runs from real clock time and shows on your Lock Screen. You can end a session at any time.
Purchases
Subscriptions are billed by Apple through your App Store account. Prices are shown in your local currency before you confirm.
Restore purchases
Reinstalled or switched phones? Settings → Subscription → Restore purchases (also available on the plan screen). Make sure you're signed into the same Apple Account.
Manage or cancel subscription
Settings → Subscription → Manage subscription opens Apple's subscription manager, or go to iOS Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions. Cancelling keeps access until the end of the paid period. Your results, history, weekly re-tests and the Daily Signal always stay free.
Notifications
The app asks for notification permission only after your first completed circuit. Every reminder type (daily, streak, re-test, Signal, milestones) can be toggled in Settings.
Health permissions
Optionally, completed Deep Work sessions can be logged to Apple Health as Mindful Minutes. This is write-only — the app never reads health data. Change it any time in the Health app under Sharing.
Export your data
Settings → Export my data (CSV) shares a file containing your tests, sessions, and Deep Work history.
Delete your data
Settings → Delete all data erases everything permanently (it asks twice). Deleting the app does the same.
Troubleshooting
- Plans won't load: check your connection, then tap Try again on the plan screen.
- Purchase pending: Ask to Buy purchases unlock automatically once approved.
- Widget looks stale: open the app once; widgets refresh at midnight and 3am automatically.
- Older results show v1: they were scored before version 1.2 and are directly comparable.
- No sound: check the in-app Sound toggle in Settings and your Silent switch.
- Timing feels off: drills prioritize input accuracy over effects; close heavy background apps.
