"Forest works well, and if your goal is to be more in the moment, ignore your phone and actually talk to your friends when you are with them, this is the app for you."— The New York Times "In order to establish new, better habits, it's helpful to engage with tools that make it easier to reinforce them. For anyone looking to curtail their phone usage, the Forest app might be for you."— Business Insider If you want to temporarily put down your phone and focus on what’s more important in real life, you can plant a seed in Forest. As time goes by, this seed will gradually grow into a tree. However, if you cannot resist the temptation of using your phone and leave the app, your tree will wither.

The whole point of the app is lost due to...
Dhiraagu on 2023-04-01
The whole point of the app is lost due to two things. First is the top score rank and the second is the ability to purchase new trees by coins. So users are just planting 24/7, usefull app (to improve productivity) becomes a silly game, to gain coins and buy trees, sound libraries and become top-xx in global rank or whatever. The main and the best point of the app is totally lost. People getting even more out of focus, by playing it, instead of using it properly as a solution to become more effecient, more productivity, focus, etc... Imho developers need to find a solution for it. To continue monetize it, but in proper way. You can provide coins, for daily usage. Like daily claiming you coin bonus. Not for count of trees you plant. And just remove this totally disappointing top-xx ranks. Of course people can't be focused on important tasks 24/7 and be in top-10/50/100. Cmon guys. Where is the logic? Think about the proper ways to monetize the app, don't turn it to silly game.
Cute and helpful
Sarutonin on 2023-04-01
I really love this app! With my ADHD brain, working from home is really hard. I get lost on my phone without noticing. This has been so helpful and it’s cute to watch the forest grow, and sad to kill a tree. The only thing I wish was different is the fact that Text Messages can still be accessed. I spend a lot of time texting, so I’d rather have the option for iMessage to be blocked. I also noticed one more glitch. I have a limit set in my apple account for instagram, and it I happen to click “ignore limit for today” (again, I know, kinda my fault, I’m weak haha) the forest app will also not block instagram, even though it’s on my block list. That might be something that’s an easy fix :) Either way, I’ve been recommending this app to friends!! I really love it and it has definitely made focusing more “fun” :)
Life changing!!

This amazing focus app has helped me to take back the control I had lost to my mobile phone. As a person with ADHD, I was drowning. I had tried to keep myself from my phone on my will alone, but it wasn’t working. This gamified system rewards me for focus which keeps me from picking up the phone and getting lost in untended click party. I am able to finally control my phone habits, and it is literally changing my life! The added bonus of environmental stewardship is genius!! Hands-down, one of the best apps on the market!
Satisfied
EmeraldEternal on 2023-04-01
I’ve never paid at all, in any amount, for an app before. But I have a host of what I’m sure are diagnosable mental issues that really seem to benefit from this simple but straight forward structure. The fact I can add my boyfriend as a friend so we can help each other stay on task and focus on getting it done is a plus. It is worth it if you struggle with needing to see your progress visually like I didn’t know I did until I gave this a try.
Allow list not working
ItsRashanna on 2023-04-01
The personalized allow list I set is not working. I still have access to all my apps. I followed the instructions on the article recommended. I don’t have any apps on my screen time always allowed list. Not sure what else to do. UPDATE: was able to get assistance from the help desk. There’s a limit on the amount of apps you can allow. They should add that information to the app so people know.
A must
didntneedanap on 2023-04-01
I am very easily distracted and have a million things running through my head all day. I lean toward using my phone to quiet that or disassociate from it. With Forest, I am forced to lean into at least one of those thoughts and actually do something about it. I use it constantly and see a significant difference in my performance at work and creating more downtime for myself at home.
Loved but now disappointed
Amuddygirl on 2023-04-01
I loved the forest app with the deep focus mode where if I left the app the trees died but with the new feature of the app allow list it doesn’t work for iOS and I am leaving the app with no reprimands of my trees dying and am losing focus more easily. I wish there was a way I could select just deep focus without the app list because then is iOS users could still use it.
I haven’t been able to open the app…
Angelfirenze01 on 2023-04-01
For several days now I feel like I’m less able to graph and quantify what I do with my time. The plants are the coolest feature, but allowing myself time is the best part. I can look at the graph and see what I need to budget time and energy for so not being able to open the app right now has been really bothersome.
Please update the allow lest feature for older IOS versions
razan.soyaa on 2023-04-01
The app allow lest feature is a great idea I was looking for something like that for long time, now I use it all the time on my iPhone however I have one issue that this feature is exclusive for ios16, see my iPad is not ios16 and i cant update it atp. can you make it happen???
Helps me focus pretty well
Mitchy73528 on 2023-04-01
This app is one of the few things helping me to focus on my work. I generally struggle a lot with focusing on my work which makes me take much longer on my homework assignments than necessary. This app helps me get stuff done quicker because I am able to focus more.
