OH MY! GOD!? A new app design?? It’s so incredible, I really love it 😍I can now write about what I’m focusing on! And the tag selection menu has become much more user-friendly, in my opinion. Also, the trees and plants are bigger, and they move so beautifully and calmly – it’s really soothing. Adding the names of plants and trees to the selection menu is also really cool. I like how the time selection has changed, and the fact that you can start from scratch – that’s really useful) It’s very handy to be able to turn the background music on and off. I also like that you can pause the focus session; it would be good to add some sort of sound signal to indicate the end of the 5-minute pause, as there doesn’t seem to be one at the moment.
Developer Response
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled that you’re enjoying Forest’s new design and features. Your suggestion about adding a sound signal when the 5-minute pause ends is very helpful—we’ll share it with our team. Forest Team
Super!

It's an incredible app. Totally worth the money. Nice design, easy navigation. Lot's of different trees, bushes, sounds to purchase for that in-game currency. This really motivates you to use Forest more often, to focus on work and put your phone down. As for me, I've found only 2 downsides. Firstly, all the items in the game are kinda expensive, so you have to "farm" a lot of coins and spend a lot of time using the app to buy items. This one isn't the problem of Forest itself, but rather a recomendation do the developers. it would me more convenient for users to have one account that we can log in while using Forest and Sleep Town, without creating 2 accounts for each of those apps.
Please add more competitions, friends and new music!!

I love your app but I feel lonely when I use it. Can you please add more “weekly challenges” with random people with rewards? I like how it works in DuoLinguo. Or at least let us befriend with random people in the challenge list and “fight” for weekly minimum time. That way you don’t feel lonely anymore. Or you can add “monthly tree” and set a challenge with the winers getting that tree. Also I would love to see new music in your list. For example LofiGirl music is wonderful for work! It works much better then any natural sound in your library and I usually have to open two apps simultaneously to achieve an environment I need to study productively. Please add this kind of relaxing music too!
Great if you do your part :)

I’ve used Forest for about 2 months now and I must say it has become a habit. It’s really helped me in times where I wanna take a sneak peak at social media while studying and really puts you in your place. However, it’s only going to be beneficial for you IF YOU WANT IT TO. This app is useless to anyone who isn’t motivated and doesn’t follow the “rules” surrounding the system. Otherwise it’s a great app but I would love for some more diversity? Idk the app feels plain sometimes.. Otherwise, worth it !
This update includes fixes for known issues and general performance improvements to make your Forest experience more stable and smooth.
