The app does good on helping remove distractions. The problem is the rewards system is really buggy. I am completing tasks multiple times over and it doesn't recognize and progress towards any tasks. The timer is also always broken so I don't know when the daily tasks actually reset. Their pushing the monitized version is also tiring. I purchased the Pro version as a one-time payment, but since they came out with Plus, they will not stop spamming about it.

Thanks for the feedback! We're sorry about the buggy rewards and timer issues — please reach out via Menu → Settings → FAQ & Support so our team can look into your account. As a Pro user, we also hear you on the Plus prompts — that shouldn't feel intrusive. We appreciate your long-term support. — Forest Team

I really like this all. It let's you quantify your focused time, and theres something so rewarding about it. Not only that, but the aesthetic of having a "digital" forest is simply beautiful. I may even consider getting the premium version. At least for me, a timer is not enough when I do homework; I need to see something that tracks my progress in a more creative way, and this is exactly it. reducing 1 star due to lack of support of Z Fold Screen, in addition to new subscription system....

I love this app! I just have one request/suggestion tho - to make it possible to edit time slots tags later on. Like for ex, I give myself 60 mins of studying. But say, if I'm done completing the chapter in less than 60 mins(say 40min), I'll usually move on to my next work or take a break. But the clock still running saying I'm studying. So if later I'm able to edit the TAGS atleast and say that in the last 20 mins I did something else, then I can keep a better track of how I spent my time.
