Description

## Top productivity app in 136 countries. More than 2 million satisfied paying users. Featured in Apple's "Amazing Apps" TV commercial. ## Staying focused with the cutest gamified timer. ## Over 1,500,000 real trees were planted on Earth by our users. "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 sense of achievement and responsibility will encourage you to stay away from your phone, and will help you make better use of your time. Stop getting distracted by your phone, make you self-motivated and get more things done. Stay focused, Be present! STAY FOCUSED • A interesting way to help you beat phone addiction and overcome distraction • Turn your focused moments into a lush forest. • Create personalized Allow Lists for different situations. Non-allowed apps will be blocked. (iOS 16 or above) GET MOTIVATED • Earn rewards and unlock more than 90 new tree species and white noises. • Share your forest and compete with friends and users around the world. • Plant trees along with friends & family. • Unlock achievements and earn extra rewards. • Plant real trees on Earth and protect the environment with tree-planting organization Trees for the Future. STATISTICS • Manage your own tags and view detailed statistics of your time distribution. • Browse your weekly, monthly and even your yearly big forest. • Track your focused time in the Apple Health App. • Track your daily phone usage and screen time. • Recall memories of your planting journey with our brand new Forest Timeline! It's never too late to build up productive habits! NOTICE • Forest is compatible with iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, and can be used across these iOS devices with a one-time purchase. The full app with the aforementioned features is available on iPhone and iPad; on Apple Watch you can view live planting session and today’s focus stats. To download or unlock a non-iOS version, it requires a separate purchase. By logging into the same account, your data can be synchronized across all platforms. • Due to iOS limitations, the Allow List feature is only available on iOS/iPadOS 16 or above. If you’re using a device running iOS/iPadOS 15 or below, your tree will wither when you leave Forest during a planting session. • Due to budget constraint, the number of real trees each user can plant is limited to five. We will be introducing limited time events that will allow users to plant more real trees. Please follow our social media page or check the in-app announcement for more updates. • There is only one version of Forest on the App Store. Other apps that are similar and mimics Forest are not developed by the Forest team. Thank you for your support!

    Helps me stay off my phone. Earning new trees and real trees motivates me to use the app.
  • Don’t update to new version

    This is such a cute little study app. As someone with ADHD symptoms caused by anxiety, I find it helpful to see a visual representation of my work. I also like that I cannot access other apps while studying (unless I want to kill what I am planting). Saving all my coins to plant actual trees!
  • App update broke system

    I have used it for a year, most recent update bricks the app and won’t let you sign in. Continuous loop and takes away your progress now.
  • Great app for focusing

    Great app and has been helping me focus. I only wish there was more options for personalization.
  • Love Forest!! I've got 1 possible suggestion.

    I have been using Forest for about 3 years now (possibly a year longer) and I love it! It's nice to see how much of my time I am studying. However, sometimes I forget to start the software when I study and wisj there was a way to still be able to log it. I'm aware that pretty soon Forest is going to update and add some changes (pay-wall wise and etc.) so this request may have been given at the wrong time, haha. But hopefully the app doesn't change too much when you guys add the subscriptions and etc. Hopefully, in the near future we can have a feature to add our hours manually as well of we've ever forgotten or statred the timer later than when we actually started! ◠ ̫◠ Thank you for creating such a wonderful app!!
  • App has become unstable recently

    I love forest and I use it all the time. However, for the past month, the app has become unusable. When a focus ends, it takes multiple tries to get out of focus mode. The app crashes all the time when I attempt to open it. Please fix it!
  • Love the app so far

    Would love improvements to Apple Watch app, like a live timer to go with your planting or a complication shortcut to kick off a season
  • Payment requirements

    By Rivendell24sa
    I hate the new requirements for having to pay for the app to use the basic functions of it, such as only being able to use certain apps while in focus mode.
  • Can’t create an account

    I have tried creating an account multiple times and just get error codes. So I am compelled to use it as a guest. I don’t like that because I have no ability to look at subscription options (which I am interested in). Other than that I actually think the app is quite good.
