For someone with ADHD i have found this helpfull to motivate my focusing, which is a great assistance when studying alot. I used it before and at the time it wasnt the greatest fit for me as it annoyed me alot if the app would accidentally close, fx if someone called while i was using it, but now with the option of turning of deep focus mode its so much better and also since it now continues counting after the timer is out if you stay off the phone longer.
Great app but room for improvement

I really love this app, however one down fall is the sound and haptic notifications, it only has one setting. I would like to see more options, at least regarding the sound as it is barely audible even on high volume, especially not noticeable if I am deep into my work, the barely audible sound and vibration is barely noticed at all. I often go over my time and forget to sett a new timer. Having more sound options would be great for people who need more &/or less obnoxious notification to not miss the timer.Otherwise this app is great, it helps me focus and reduces time spent on social media etc.
Great app to gamify your deep focus.

The app gives you some stakes for not opening your phone. Once you're locked into your session, if you navigate off the app your tree dies. If you manage to not use your phone for the period you're awarded with a tree and coins. Coins are used to unlock more trees. It helps you customize your forest. Very fun!
Very good app for focus but still room for improvement

On iphone the feature where if you open another app the tree stops growing doesn’t work. That kindof makes the app less efficient. I wish i could choose whether to use that feature or not. I also wish the “tag” option were more easy to use. Otherwise it helps me focus and keep track of how much time I’m spending on studying. So just for that it gets 4 stars but there is definitely room for improvement :).
