I'm absolutely obsessed with Forest. It has helped me so much with focusing and motivation. I even bought the Premium version, something that I've never done before for any other app. I feel like it pushed me to get better at managing my time and balancing between studies and hobbies. The only thing I quite regret is the lack of scale among the "trees"! For example, you should make lavander smaller than the tangerine tree. Anyway, this is just me being picky! Thank you so much Forest! ^-^

Good! I appreciate this app, it allows me to focus on my studying and the rewarding system is very satisfying, it makes you try harder than you would with any other application of that kind. Also,the fact we can contribute to planting real trees is amazing, so I always watch the in-app adds (that come with a reward anyway), hoping it could be used to plant trees too! The only thing I'd have to add is the app does not allow the majority of the other apps to work but not Instagram. Edit : fixed!

I really like the app. I started using it like two years ago and my productivity has increased exponentially. However, it would be nice if the web and phone versions of the app synchronised so when you start the timer in one, the other one does too. That way you eliminate two sources of distraction at the same time. You would not have to start the timer at the same time on both devices, which is inconvenient (+ plus it duplicates your time, which is not realistic)
