Comments and Reviews
Marvin is truly amazing. It is one of the most flexible personal todo list / project planning apps out there. It has a easily configurable library of features. You can have a lightweight simple todo list, or a planning app on steroids managing workload, time estimates and so on. One of the greatest things about Marvin is it's customer care and community. On the downside Marvin is as for now really only suited for personal use with no collaborative features yet, but they are on the roadmap.

Amazing Marvin is the only productivity app that truly feels designed for neurodivergent people. It understands that our needs change over time and that customization is essential. From planning strategies to visual customization, it offers an incredible level of flexibility.
I spend a lot of time researching and testing productivity apps, and they all eventually fail me when my needs change or I need a different way of working. Amazing Marvin is the only app I've found that can adapt to me instead of forcing me to adapt to it. No matter what stage I'm in or how my workflow changes, I can always customize it to fit my current needs.
A true game changer that redefines what a productivity tool can be
Amazing Marvin is not just a task management tool—it’s more like a productivity system builder that lets you design your own workflow exactly the way you want. While most productivity tools force you into a predefined structure, Marvin does the opposite by giving you the flexibility to build a system that matches your thinking and working style. The biggest change I experienced is that I no longer waste time figuring out how to organize my work. Like assembling LEGO blocks, I can combine features to create a workflow that fits me perfectly, which allows me to focus on execution much faster and more effectively. What truly stands out is that it’s not just feature-rich—each feature is thoughtfully designed to solve real productivity problems. It helps reduce procrastination, improve focus, and create a more stable and manageable daily workflow. As a result, not only has my productivity improved, but the mental burden of managing tasks has significantly decreased. Another key strength is the shift in perspective: instead of adapting myself to a tool, I can design the tool around me. This level of flexibility is rare and incredibly valuable, especially for people with a clearly defined way of working. What impressed me just as much was the customer support. It has been one of the best support experiences I’ve ever had—fast, thoughtful, and genuinely focused on solving problems. It goes beyond basic support and significantly increases trust in the product. If you’re serious about productivity, this is a tool you absolutely need to try.
Most of the comments here are obviously fake. What a lame marketing approach
The Ultimate Productivity Sandbox (A Lifesaver for Students & GTD Enthusiasts)
I have spent months searching for the perfect GTD (Getting Things Done) application to manage my postgraduate studies, research, and daily work shifts. I tried Todoist, Trello, Notion, and Nirvana, but none of them hit the sweet spot—until I found Amazing Marvin. Pros: Workflows & Strategies: This is not just a to-do list; it's a productivity lab. With one click, I applied the "Nirvana HQ / GTD" workflow, and the app instantly transformed into a strict GTD engine with Inbox, Next Actions, and Contexts perfectly set up. Flexibility: It adapts to your brain, not the other way around. You can turn features on/off like Lego blocks. Customer Support: Mark, Christina, and Branko are incredible. They genuinely care about their users, especially students, and their support is empathetic and lightning-fast. Cons: Because it is so feature-rich, the initial setup on the desktop can look slightly overwhelming. But once you apply a pre-made "Workflow Template," everything becomes magical and simple, especially on the mobile app. Overall: If you are a student, researcher, or GTD practitioner looking for an app that combines the strictness of David Allen's method with the flexibility of Notion (without the setup fatigue), Amazing Marvin is the absolute king. 10/10 highly recommended
I am a productivity junkie.
I lived most of my life with undiagnosed ADHD. The reason it remained undiagnosed is because I was always, always able to build systems to support the way my brain works. I used to swear by Todoist, I've used Tick Tick, Monday, Asana, Clickup, I've used The Productivity Planner, I've designed my own journals and had them mailed, I've built systems inside of dotted notebooks, I've augmented to-do apps with note taking apps, calendars, tablets, folding phones, dual screened phones - if it exists to streamline, organize, or manage information and it has more than 1000 users there's a good chance I've used it, heard about it, or read a description and immediately dismissed it.
When I opened Marvin, it made me angry. I hated it. I browsed around for a bit and immediately closed it. Everything about it was all wrong - but I knew that my mentor, my own personal career coach and productivity guru, swore by it. So, I opened it up again. For approximately 3 hours I thumbed through the digital pages of the LEGO building blocks that make up the apps features - strategies, they're called - and I realized that I was witnessing something special.
The Amazing Marvin is a god, a king, the GOAT among productivity apps. It gives access to all of the most effective, scientifically backed methodologies - strategies, if you will - for keeping yourself and your life organized and effective. Because the app is so modular, these can be shuffled, re-shuffled, and customized at will. If there's a feature in another app or an approach to either visualizing or sorting through your data, nine times out of ten you'll find an analogue here. If not that, you'll likely find something that, with a bit of finagling, can serve exactly the same function. Not to mention that there's a high likelihood that you'll be introduced to an idea that you haven't considered yet and which could revolutionize the way you do things.
Marvin is, because of this, one of the only digital tools that I would compare to pen and paper. You have a blank canvas that you can shape to your will. It is not ready out of the box, but that is in part because it doesn't impose any particular philosophies of organization onto you. That lack of direction was initially very frustrating as the few default settings available were not to my taste.
3 hours later and I had formed something new, something more flexible and more useful than anything else I had ever encountered. And thus, Marvin has become an invaluable tool in my professional life. I give it my highest recommendation.
