I love this app; I always used it while studying for my degree. It really helps you focus and prevents you from getting distracted. And what I love most is that real trees are being planted. You've done something great for the world with this app. 🌳💚

Long time user - it's a clean, simple app that's very effective and gives you the ability to plant real trees. A perfect procrastination killer.

A perfect app that contributes to my mindfulness. Every day, I graphically track the amount of time I spend on business, personal stuff, sports, and education planting different trees for each activity.

I have used it for five years to focus on my daily tasks/hobbies. It started as a student, and now Forest follows me daily for working, work-out, doing chores, cooking, etc... An important plus: your focused time can be converted into planting real trees! Or you can buy a new virtual tree into your collection. 🌲🌲🌲🌲 The app is clean and updated regularly.

Minimalist feel of a focused pomodoro. I've been using it for years now and is simple enough to use it on a daily basis when focusing becomes hard.

It is a time management app based on pomodoro technique, flexible and user friendly. Besides, when you collect 2500 points, they plant a tree on your behalf.
