A really amazing app. It could become really much better if you added a feature that counts the number of times I got distracted, which would increase when I press some button when the timer is on. And a home screen widget where I can view my forest.

I70%
by I####:

I really love the concept and when I use the app it helps me stay on task. However this app really needs a widget that displays your forest on the home screen to serve as a reminder to use it frequently - it's too easy to ignore the empty lot sitting somewhere inside an app somewhere. It also should have the option to set the default view to your weekly forest. Unless you're a power user you're not gonna build up a satisfying forest in a day. If it had these features it would be five stars for me and would motivate me to use it daily, now I use it quite rarely.

It would have been great if the reminder is repeated until the user opens it. Increase the duration maximum to 180 minutes. I deducted 2 stars just for these two reasons. Otherwise its superb.

Great app, but I've found that I can go around the focus feature and drag down to see my menu and reply to texts/messages and see/interact with notifications. Would love to get that fixed!

Definitely helps me focus on my work! I put all the apps I use for studying (dictionary, music, kanji app etc) on my Whitelist so I can only use them for studying. When I try to use other apps like Instagram it always blocks me off. So everything works perfectly for me! Only one thing I'd like to have like a break timer? So If I study for 25min and then take a 10min break it should remind me to go back to studying. That would be a really nice extra feature but I still like it now :)

HOW TO FIX HOME BUTTON ERROR, the app wasn't working for me at first. I could exif the app using the home button/task switcher and it wouldn't kill my tree if i launched other apps. To fix it went to the settings and enabled white list apps went and disabled all the apps. I also enabled advanced detection. This worked for me. Good luck with it. If this helped you leave the review again so another person can find it and get help from this app.

Dude this app blows. I can go out of the app and clear it from my recent apps and it does nothing. Doesn't even kill the plant or restart the time. Love the idea of it tho.

Brilliant app, really helps with focus and phone addiction (I use it as a Pomodoro timer). You can make it ad-free for £1.89, under settings/more features.

Very good app for keeping yourself in check! Keeps me from fiddling with my phone when I should be studying. A few minor features that would be useful are missing however. First of all, I would like an option to automatically start the "break-timer" once I'm done with a session. That way I'm not going to take longer breaks than I should. And an option to set a predefined short break and long break (similar to the "tide" app) in addition to that. Secondly, buttons with my most used labels on the start screen, so I can easily toggle between them. Otherwise a great app!

I've used this app before on a previous phone but sadly it doesn't seem to work with my new one T-T I have the Samsung Galaxy Jv7 and I've enabled all the permissions necessary for it. Tried closing and reopening the app. Tried reinstalling. But it doesn't seem to kill my plant when I move away from the app. I've tried spending 5-10 minutes away from the app and it still doesn't work T-T I liked using it on my old phone could someone fix the bug and make it compatible for this phone too?

This is a great app to become more productive. A must have! The thought of killing a tree, even a virtual one drastically changes how I think about work. The only drawback is that this app doesn't have a widget. Widget would make it so much more easier to use this app. Hope the devs add a widget soon.

I use this to write, do homework/study and for when I just need to focus on other things. I am addicted to plants, (I have like ten in my apartment) so I'm automatically addicted to growing my virtual forest and showing off to my friends who have this app and saying my forest is the best. It's a great way to stay focused, 10/10 would recommend.

I used to love this app, it helps me to study and focus and I used to be able to plant real trees with it. Just saved up enough in game coins to plant a real tree and they are out of stock. This was the reason why I paid for this app to enable me to focus and help the planet. The main selling point has now gone.

Same issue as others. It doesn't detect other apps being used. Can't kill a tree even when I try! Using a Samsung Galaxy S4. Keeping the app in the hope that an update fixes the bug.

C70%
by C####:

This app is useless. The timer doesn't stop if you leave the app, not even if you close it. It doesn't prevent you from visiting other apps and certainly doesn't make me more productive. I need as much self control to not use other apps as I do without this not-worthy-of-anything app

C70%
by C####:

So... the entire purpose of this app is to motivate you to be productive, but all I have to do is hit the home button on my phone and I can do whatever I want with the tree still growing... kind of defeats the entire purpose. This needs to be fixed ASAP especially since I spent money on this app. Samsung Galaxy S8+

Notification after reaching few minutes without phone use? I though that this app is designed to keep you off the phone! Data collection? No thanks. Disappointed.

C70%
by C####:

It doesn't work for me. All the accessibility features are enabled and it won't detect me using other apps. It will only ask me if I want to give up if I press the back button while in the app, but if I press the app list button then I can just set is aside. Sometimes it won't even show there until I open it again to find out the counter is still running. Even if it worked properly though, the trade off for not using the phone is a drain on your battery for running an app constantly. Using OnePlus 3.

P70%
by P####:

Great app and idea, only issue is the fact that it is extremely unintuitive; Some basic instruction at the beginning, after that you are left clueless as to what button does what or where to go for what. At the minimum, the addition of long press popup toast messages would be welcome on more buttons. A small guide in the settings, or compass/key to explain what buttons do what would be very helpful. Flying blind at the moment. Devs don't seem to be native speaker/writers, which could also obfuscate things as times. Love the concept, just not the best execution.
