ADHD Focus Trainer

About ADHD Focus Trainer

The ADHD Focus Trainer is built around the Go/No-Go paradigm — one of the most studied tasks in attention research. Tap quickly on green circles, but resist the urge to tap red ones. It sounds easy until your finger gets ahead of your brain.

How to Play

1. Press Start to begin
2. Green circle (GO!) appears: tap as fast as you can
3. Red circle (NO-GO): do NOT tap. Wait it out.
4. False taps and missed greens both cost points
5. Game lasts 60 seconds

Tips & Strategy

• Don't get into a rhythm — that's a trap. The game is designed to break automatic patterns.
• Slow down before you tap. The fastest reactions are also the most error-prone.
• If you slip up, reset mentally. Don't let one mistake snowball.
• Play in short focused bursts, not for an hour at a time.

Brain Benefits

The Go/No-Go test is the most validated measure of impulse control in cognitive psychology. People with ADHD typically score lower on it, and consistent practice has been shown to improve sustained attention and reduce impulsive responding. It's used in clinical and research settings worldwide.
