Good for focus

This app is good for focusing, bugs are either fixed or just not shown up recently.

Remove the stupid โ€œTake a Breakโ€ feature!

At least give us an option to DISABLE it!
COMPLETELY WASTES MY TIME!!!

Focus challenge needs to be patched

Itโ€™s a good app, but one of my gripes is the focus challenges. Lately they do not update very well after I get through a focus session. It can be really annoying to have focused for an hour + and see that the focus challenges were never counting because of some technical glitch. Also it would be nice if we could plant more than 5 trees!

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.
