This extension is like a magic "do-your-work" button. The first time I pressed the button, I felt no desire to go on the sites on my blacklist, and instead focused on doing my homework like I was supposed to. I really like this extension, and find it very useful. To be honest, though, I don't like the fact that you have to link the add-on with the mobile app to get all the cooler, non-pine trees because I don't have a mobile phone of any kind whatsoever. (No offense to any pine trees that might be reading this! :- 3). But that's just a minor complaint. No matter what tree I plant, I still see it as a living creature that I don't want to kill off just for the sake of watching stupid Youtube videos. Thank you so much, and have a wonderful day, Forest Developer! ^ ^

    Overall great extension, but please fix the latest sync issues not allowing us to sync our progress to the app. This is super frustrating and doesn't allow me to see my garden as a reward for my progress.

    Needs more work on it, I can still do on the website that is blacklisted if I keybind through my way without using a mouse anymore. Or just pressing TAB to select a Input to interact with the website.

    Unable to login, I use google account to login, because I have a lifetime purchase, but OMG, this extension does not work. Utter garbage.

    Extremely high memory consumption especially if many tabs are open. Had to disable it due to my whole laptop lagging and upon doing so, everything suddenly runs smoothly

    Some suggestions:
    Add a break timer option after a tree has grown to allow for a pomodoro style timer
    add a give up button at the extension menu instead of at a blocked page
    instead of having to press 3 buttons to start a timer again, make it seamless and easy to do (accept the coins, returns to the previews screen, click the tree again is 3 steps too many when you want to start a tree after a previous one finishes)

    all of these can be solved by adding a button that says restart on the coin scene, a button that says break, and the break lenght to be customizable on the settings page where 5 minutes is the default, also add the option to either auto restart a tree after a break or to manually restart it

    a great app when i want to focus on my tasks. i do wish that it synced with my forest app on my phone since i am missing a few plants that i have earned. it seems that the last plant i have is the anniversary plants, which i know i gained a few more. other than that, a fantastic app.

    pretty decent, does what it's supposed to, but I agree with some of the other reviews, like improving the list system, making cancelling a bit simpler.
  • by Eli Hooke, 2 years ago
    Overall fine as a browser app, but lacking some of the helpful stuff of the phone app. Particularly the ability to cancel w/in the first few seconds the phone app has.
    I accidentally started it & had to cancel (killing the tree) & couldn't get rid of the dead tree. Which brought up some wonkiness in the syncing between my phone app & the browser version. Unable to clear accidental start in browser. The dead trees were on my phone version & so I paid in app coins to remove the dead trees in the phone app, but it didn't remove them from the browser only on my phone even after forcing a sync twice. Really a minor issue, but annoying.

    Unable to just copy-paste list of blocked sites from/to other extension. That's why I scored 3.

    it does the job for when you don't have access to your phone, but it lacks very basic features like tagging or canceling your planting session
