Common Questions

The answers you're probably looking for.

What is MuddleMend?

MuddleMend helps adults with ADHD configure everyday technology — phones, smart homes, AI — as cognitive accommodations. Our guides walk you through setup, daily use, and how to know if it's actually working.

Who is MuddleMend for?

Adults with ADHD who want to find their own solutions. Especially late-diagnosed adults building systems from scratch, people who prefer self-directed learning, and anyone who wants practical tech accommodations without ongoing coaching.

How is this different from other ADHD productivity content?

Most ADHD tech advice tells you what to download and leaves you to figure the rest out. MuddleMend doesn't just help you set things up — the guides are designed so your accommodations actually stick, and so you can tell whether they're working over time. That's the part nobody else covers.

How do I use the guides?

Guides are comprehensive PDF manuals you can read on any device. They include step-by-step instructions, shopping lists, automation recipes, and troubleshooting advice. No technical knowledge required — everything is explained in plain language.

Do I need technical skills to use these guides?

No. The guides assume no prior technical knowledge and explain each step in plain language. They're designed to reduce setup friction and help you avoid the overwhelm that often comes with configuring new technology.

What's the difference between the newsletter and the guides?

The newsletter delivers free articles on specific ADHD challenges and how technology addresses them, organised by challenge. The guides are comprehensive manuals that walk you through building complete tech systems from start to finish — designed so you know whether your setup is actually helping.

Do you take on speaking gigs or workshops?

Yes, particularly for events focused on digital accessibility, assistive technology, or neurodivergent workplace accommodations.
