Forest: Focus for Productivity

Forest is the perfect solution for those who have trouble controlling their scrolling habits and lack self-control. With its adorable focus timer, this app helps boost productivity and keeps you focused. Recognized as the 2018 Google Play Editors’ Choice Top Productivity App, and the 2018 Google Play Best Self-improvement app in 9 countries, including Canada, France, Japan, and Korea, Forest has received acclaim and nominations for its excellence.

To use the app, simply plant a seed in Forest when it's time to put down your phone and concentrate on your task list. As you stay focused, this seed grows into a beautiful tree. However, if you leave the app, your tree will wither, providing a fun and effective method to reduce procrastination and develop good time management skills.

Harnessing the power of motivation and gamification, Forest lets you grow your own forest. Each tree represents your dedicated efforts, and earning rewards by staying focused and unlocking adorable trees provides a unique form of motivation. The app also features multiple focus modes, such as the timer mode, which allows you to set a focus session to dive into studying or working with the Pomodoro technique. Alternatively, the stopwatch mode provides a count-up timer that works great as a habit tracker.

With personalized features such as plant reminders and favorite quotes, Forest provides a fully customizable experience. Forest Premium offers even more insightful statistics and allows you to plant real trees on earth, making the world greener. You can also create personalized allow lists for different situations, and various special events are hosted on different servers or regions.

You can download Forest for free and connect with us on social media for updates and special events. We also have a Chrome extension! Please note that the Pro version allows you to access Forest across all Android devices. Synchronizing your data across all platforms requires the same account login. Finally, due to budget constraints, each user can only plant up to five real trees. Check out our permissions explained page for more information. Sound design by Shi Kuang Lee.
