I have been using this app for a long time and it has always helped me to stay focused during exam periods. Somehow, this app has the monopoly power to keep me from my phone for longer periods of time and focus on work. So I was incredibly sad to see that now the free version is almost nothing anymore. For all really helpful things (long timers and nice plants) you need to upgrade and pay.

Why is anything >60 mins behind a paywall?? I loved using forest from time to time for studying and I appreciated that all the necessary things were accessible with the free version, but now you need (the fairly expensive) pro version if you want to use the timer for more than an hour? That is not cool, the app genuinely lost all its appeal. I understand having a pro version for different sounds, more trees, special features... But time? Really? Come on.

sooo im a premium user, and I've been using this app for a few months now. i have to be honest. it's the best productivity app I've tried, but it has many things missing, especially considering it's been around for ten years now. such as landscape mode or having little to no events or new tree species. I've heard that they made a forest 2 and have been working on a subscription model and such, but its no reason to abandon a perfectly usable app with many active users. It's just sad, honestly.
