Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) may present with obsessions, compulsions, or both. Obsessions and compulsions are often distressing, time-consuming, and impairing.
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.

This app helped me so much
I have always known there was something odd about me, I talked to my big cousin Lola about voices in my head and other things and she suspected that I had OCD and said to download this app, and I got 64/72 so I most likely have OCD.
Great app
I took the test and got 64/64 so we went to the doctor and I got diagnosed with ocd so I think it’s pretty accurate
Not accurate at all for “Pure O” OCD
I have OCD that focuses on intrusive thoughts but no physical compulsions.
After doing the test, I got the results 20/70 and it said I “unlikely have OCD.”
This further leads to misinformation about OCD as the mental compulsion, rumination, etc are still a part of OCD and I feel like the test did not acknowledge them as such.
This test needs urgent updating.
How I found out about ocd
I’ve had loads of urges to do stuff for a while now ,so I searched up “why do I have random urges” it said it was a symptom oF ocd ,so I decided to search up more about ocd. I saw this app and I had an urge to test myself (sometimes I do what my guts tell me 2) so I tested myself. One sec, I got the urge 2 touch the top of my door. Done. It asked some questions about my thoughts and I was like “I defiantly have strange and disgusting thoughts”. I like being in control of things and when I get urges I get this sort of along I don’t like. To help with this feeling, I throw stuff. I have a weird obsession of throwing stuff. It makes me feel powerful, like I won a fight.
it was good
ive been struggling with undiagnosed ocd fir a while and this has helped me have a closer look on what i struggle with, thanks.
don’t take this if you have ocd
this test is looking for contamination ocd and hoarding ocd, with few questions on intrusive thoughts. this means that it’s only gonna monitor you for such things, when there are practically infinite types of ocd. just because this doesn’t say you have ocd, doesn’t mean you don’t have ocd. you may just not have the above stated sub types that the app is examining.
feeling as though your ocd isn’t real can just lead to more fear and stop you looking for help in the fear of not being taken seriously.
