I bought the premium version because I love the idea of this app, but I keep getting a bug when trying to double my coins. also, the UX needs a lot of work. I have a lot of trees, and I don't know what they are unless I go back to the store. I also wish you could use this app when growing trees. And why can't we move trees around? That would double the fun. I also wish we could more easily see different tree stages. I could say more, but I'm near my character limit.

Great app to stop me checking my phone when I should be doing other things, and growing a little forest adds a bit of positivity to the day. It's well worth the small price to go premium. One small complaint: the focus challenge (admittedly in beta) seems pretty broken. Most of the time, completing the challenges doesn't register. I find this kind of gamification quite helpful, so it's a bit disappointing that it isn't working.

Been using this app for over 10 years and I'm now saying goodbye. It was a great app with cute art and new features that made it even more fun to use. But for such a simple app, it's riddled with bugs that render it unusable for weeks and these are not acknowledged by the creators. Between radio silence on the bugs, AI images, and how they're trying to get users to subscribe to a premium model...I'm out. They need to work on lag, crashes, and bug fixes.
