Find your focus with the Forest app

Do you find yourself getting distracted by your phone? Is it always buzzing away with a new message or update? And is it interfering with your work or social time?

Well, here’s a great way to help you stay focused on the task at hand… Introducing the Forest app.

Open up the Forest app and a tree will begin to grow from a seed. You can leave your phone to the side and the tree will continue to grow as you carry on with whatever you need to do. But be warned – if you get distracted, pick up your phone and leave the app, your tree will die.

Perfect for those times when it’s tempting to check your phone, even though you know you really shouldn’t – at work, while studying, or at dinner with friends.

You’ll get rewarded the more you use the app, as you turn your single tree into a lush forest. And what’s more, your actions in the app are reflected in the real world, as Forest is partnered with ‘Trees for the Future’ and donates to get real trees planted around the world.

You can download Forest on iOS and Android.

So, put down that phone and start growing. Good luck.
