User Reviews for Focus Plant: Pomodoro Forest

Love it but...

I love this app so much because it motivates me to sit down and do the things that I've been wanting to do but don't really have a reason to do it for get done. This app also allows you to play with others and plant a garden together. Once you focus for a certain amount of time the game gives you water to plant and grow flowers and other plants. You can discover new plants that the game designers made up, which are fun and creative. This game is not just for younger kids it's for any age group and is appropriate for girls and guys. As much as I love this there is one thing that I wish they had done. I love other apps I've seen that plant trees when you grow a certain amount of plants in the game. I wish that they did that for this app. Other than that I am in love with this game.

Great concept but too many downfalls

I downloaded the app to be incentivized to stay off of my phone when I have tasks I need to complete. For that purpose it totally does the trick but there are other things I take issue with. My biggest issue with the app is the ads. I don’t mind them as a whole because they are necessary for the app to make money and run. However, I am constantly being shown ads upon entering the app-even multiple on occasion. On the other hand I try to watch ads when given the chance for extra boosts in the game and they are never available. Why am I constantly being shown ads (that do nothing for me) but am not able to watch ads when I choose to? With several other apps that offer almost the same thing (and not an issue that affects the gameplay so much) I can’t see focus plant as an app worth having. Before you download look at other options because it’s a shame to have to delete and switch over.

2-in-1 !

This app is literally SO amazing! Let’s start with how it actually helps you stay away from your phone and focus. My phone is almost always on a focus session, and my screen time overall has shown a decrease. Another thing that makes the app stand out is how it’s an adorable game as well! I love to play it a lot, and it’s not addicting (I try my best to avoid addicting games)! Planting and taking care of all of your super cute plants is just an awesome experience. I really enjoy expanding my gardens, opening chests to reveal more gardeners, and getting to join a group. The app in general is just so cute and you can get two things at once: a great game and less screen time. One thing I would really like, though, would probably be a chat feature in the groups. It would be really fun to get to chat to the other members in the group, and we could feel closer to each other and help out.But other than that, this app is TOTALLY worth trying out! I will definitely recommend it to my friends! I’ve already told my dad about it and he loved the idea. Thank you so much! 💕

Great focus apps with truly addicting incentives

Changing my previous review because I didn’t realize you needed to make some small progress before unlocking the “strict” mode that actually punishes you for using other apps (which is what I wanted). This app is so well made and truly has enough of a fleshed out world to get you to want to focus and stay off the phone to build up your plant collection. Small suggestion would be that the whale bonus is a bit too much and makes your own efforts feel redundant, would lessen that if possible.

Should’ve never spent money

I am so mad. I have been playing this game for years and finally decided to get a subscription, as well as purchase the holiday package (which didn’t seem to do what it said anyway).I have been buying a lot of vouchers in the game’s shop to level up my character cards and lower raindrop need. Specifically, I put a lot of effort into leveling up Santasaur because it reduces raindrop need for watering plants by 2% each time. Or so I thought, until all of a sudden I leveled it up to level 21 and it only decreased 0.5%. Why??? This is so not okay. Do you have any idea how many vouchers it cost me to level it up??? Nowhere did it ever say this was going to happen.I canceled my subscription. I feel scammed and I want my vouchers back.

Cute game, not good for focusing

You can basically play through the game with the raindrops that the game gives you— the chests and the whale award you with way too many raindrops, so many so to the point that you basically never have to focus to get raindrops, because there’s always an abundance of them, effectively nullifying the entire point of it as a focusing app. My suggestions would be to maybe have an option for people to deactivate the whale if they want to? Because for me, I definitely don’t want the whale. I go to do something— like eat dinner— and I come back and the whale has basically done all the work for me, again, defeating the purpose of the entire game as a focusing app. Another thing is the wait times. Why do the plants nap? You should be trying to waste all of your raindrops on your plants at one time so that you can actually focus to get more— the napping gets in the way of spending your raindrops, again, defeating the purpose. Maybe the player should be able to deactivate that as well?

Thank you so much for this game!!

This app is the only one that actually motivates me so much more to focus on my work!!The many plants and levels you can unlock keeps this game going for me. Bonus—everything in this game is so adorable and the animation is joyful and nice to look at. Also, THANK YOU for not making this app so ad heavy like other apps can be! The only way you need to watch ads is if you want bonus rewards which is a pretty good incentive because I always want extra rewards to grow my plants and buy more things from the store 🙂I really can’t wait until the developers make a multiplayer mode for focusing on tasks, I think that’d be pretty cool! One thing I think would be cool to add, is if you can actually see the gardeners around the plants! I find myself pretty disconnected from the gardeners so adding this feature would make it much more enjoyable and realistic? 🙂Lastly, if there could be more options for land bgm and white noise such as coffee shop jazz or people talking in the background, etc., that’d be awesome! Instead of me having to go on my laptop to play some bg noise, this would be convenient!Other than that, great job developers! Keep up the good work!

Adorable game and an effective app

I very much love this game. It’s so adorable and it excites me to know what other species of each realm I have unlocked. I personally love this game a lot because it revolves around gardening; I garden myself and I try to learn more about it. The game itself is self-explanatory for the most part. The game itself is manageable without any in-app purchases in my opinion. I have no particular issue with app thus far. I can’t wait for the upcoming updates for this app although. I’m not sure if the 3rd stage evolution of the plants is a secret that must be figured out or if it just hasn’t been patched in yet. I’d like to get insight on that to be honest. Overall, great app that has adorable characters/plants/atmosphere.In regards to its effectiveness as a focus app, I’d say it does a great job. I honestly have a phone addiction and I’d spend hours on my phone watching YouTube/Netflix, scrolling through social media, and so on. Even with the app limits that Apple implemented, I still find myself bargaining with myself to add more time to these apps. I consciously know that I’m doing it, yet I can’t get myself out of that habit quite yet. The basic function of the app which is focusing for durations of time to earn more water to grow and to plant new plants has helped me reducing my screen time and focus on my coursework for college. I’m so grateful to have come across this app and the developers who created it.

Questionable.

This app is somewhat effective, I suppose. However, exiting out of the app cancels the timer, and it wants to you to not turn your phone off at all, claiming that flipping your phone over saves more battery than turning it off. It still gives you rewards if you quit halfway through, which seems counterproductive to me.On strict mode, it doesn’t allow you to go into apps; which is fine, accept that it completely restricts your ability to go into apps at all. You also have to use suns in order to put apps on a whitelist.When I told it not to send me notifications, it responded with “Are you sure you don’t need a little reminder to stay off?” Which just makes me personally very uncomfortable.It’s a fine app in regards to focusing, I suppose. However, certain things (like the ones I mentioned) make me feel as if there’s more going on in the background, and most definitely does not make me feel like my phone is safe. It seems like they’re trying to mine your data.It could be just me, but it could also very much be more. The whole thing is suspicious, in my opinion.

Just grateful

I never write reviews but not to do so on this app would be an act of ungratefulness. After downloading this app my productivity and concentration has skyrocketed. I use it not just for work but for moments in my day which I call “transitions”. You know, that little time pocket that occurs when you move from one task to another. Those five minutes that make or break your productivity, that’s when I’ve used the app. Since it locks my phone for five minutes I’m forced to move into my next task instead of wasting time scrolling through social media. The ads that play in order to earn more “suns” or “raindrops” I play them gladly since the developers definitely deserve their income with this app. Much love 💛
