Featured In
Turn hard work into a land of lush forest.
Plant a seed
Whenever you want to stay focused, plant a tree. Set your timer and put down your phone.
Watch it grow
Your tree will grow while you focus on your work. The longer you focus, the bigger the tree.
Don't leave the app!
Leaving the app halfway to check social media or play games will cause your tree to wither and die.
Stay focused and plant real trees on Earth.
Forest team partners with a real-tree-planting organization, Trees for the Future, to plant real trees on Earth. When our users spend virtual coins they earn in Forest on planting real trees, our team donates to our partner and creates planting orders.

App Store User Reviews
Brilliant app with a great environmental side.
"Allows me to work without being distracted and help the environment at the same time. Knowing I'm planting real trees keeps me from quitting the timer."
Changed my work habits.
"I used to pick up my phone every 5 minutes while working. Now, the guilt of 'killing my tree' is enough to keep my phone face down. My productivity has skyrocketed."
The best $4 I've ever spent.
"Most productivity apps charge absurd monthly fees. Forest is a one-time purchase that gamifies focus beautifully. The interface is clean and seeing your forest grow is deeply satisfying."
