OCD Test
Everyone has worried about germs or losing something or someone getting hurt. These thoughts tend to be fleeting and do not disrupt daily living. If these thoughts are constantly occurring, uncontrollable, intrusive, and cause a lot of anxiety or stress, then they may be considered 'obsessions.'
Everyone has felt the need to double check that the door is locked or arrange items in a correct way. If you perform these actions like a ritual or with rigid rules in order to prevent or reduce anxious thoughts, or if these actions greatly disrupt your life, then they may be considered 'compulsions.'
This app is designed to evaluate your symptoms of OCD with a scientifically-supported 18-question test. It uses the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory - Revised (OCI-R), a screening questionnaire for OCD that is commonly used in research and healthcare settings. The OCI-R is also helpful for monitoring your OCD-related symptoms during and after treatment.
OCD Test contains four tools:
- Start Test: take the OCI-R questionnaire to assess OCD symptoms
- History: see a history of your test scores to monitor your symptoms over time
- Information: learn about OCD and discover additional resources that can help you on your path to recovery
- Reminder: set up notifications to re-take the questionnaire at your convenience
Disclaimer: The OCI-R is NOT a diagnostic test. A diagnosis can only be provided by a qualified healthcare professional. Please consult a physician or mental health professional if you are concerned about OCD.

I am diagnosed with"OCD". It's too the point where I can't live life and often take hours doing something that would take others 10 minutes because my OCD gets in the way. And this app says I "may have some symptoms".
I think this app is pretty good because my brother who is 2 years younger than me has OCD he is obsessed with washing his hands and being clean.
I liked the questions, but at the end it gives you a score and says an estimation. This is not an test for an actual diagnosis.
Excludes other OCD themes and only focuses on surface level ideas of OCD
Awful test. Alot of the questions are based on preconceptions of what ocd is not what ocd in general tends to be
That's too easy and good test.
it has th same questions every time i play!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's easy 😎 And tells you the redolts
7/72 guess what , i m not the one with ocd 😄
I really helped me
Very decent app. Easy to answer questions. Simple layout. NOT MEANT TO BE USED AS A DIAGNOSIS. Simply made it easier for me to understand symptoms I've experienced. Great resources :)
This app is so basic that it only covers the versions of OCD widely known in the media - such as hand washing or number counting. OCD sufferes who only have mental compulsions (such as intrusive thoughts) are actually very common in the community. They are easier to hide, and harder for the suffer to understand, I would know this. This is why apps like this are SO IMPORTANT to diagnose us. Yet clearly the app creator has no clue. Take this app down, or change it. This is actually dangerous.
