New version is broken

Used to love this app and redownloaded on my new phone. It has a bug where you cannot exit the first challenge which limits your ability to participate in events or get new trees. Deleted the app and the subscription.

I love this

I like planting trees

Great but can be frustrating

It’s a great little app but can be a little frustrating.
Frustration 1 = There’s this thing called the Focus Challenge where they’ll name a particular type of tree or bush to plant, but none of them in your collection are named. So you need to Google the name to find the tree in question.
Frustration 2 = When you do successfully plant a tree for the pre-requisite time, there’s an enormous lag between the game and the Focus Challenge part of the game.

Fine, but mildly disappointing re-download

I really love this app (that I bought years ago), and as a graduate student I used to use it frequently. Recently, I needed a way to re-balance my time, and thought to re-download. Now it’s loaded with tons of ads and requests to purchase premium. It still works, but it’s a bit much and is irksome to use especially considering I paid for it (eg unskippable ad after most sessions?)

FAQ

What does the Forest app do?

Forest is a productivity app that uses a gamified timer to help users stay focused and reduce phone distractions. When you want to concentrate, you plant a virtual seed that grows into a tree. If you leave the app during a focus session, the tree withers, encouraging you to stay on task.

What are the key features of Forest?

Key features include a gamified focus timer, the ability to plant virtual trees that grow over time, personalized allow lists to block distracting apps (iOS 16+), earning rewards for new tree species and white noises, and participating in a real tree planting initiative with Trees for the Future.

How much does Forest cost?

The app is free to download and offers in-app purchases for additional features and content. While the core functionality is available for free, users can purchase the full app experience and unlock all features. Separate purchases may be required for non-iOS versions.

What devices is Forest compatible with?

Forest is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. The full app experience is available on iPhone and iPad, while the Apple Watch allows viewing live planting sessions and daily focus stats. Data can be synchronized across all iOS devices by logging into the same account.

How does Forest help with phone addiction and distraction?

The app helps combat phone addiction and distraction by creating a sense of responsibility and achievement. The visual representation of a growing tree motivates users to stay away from their phones. Personalized allow lists further prevent access to non-essential apps during focus sessions.
