Forest App
Addicted to your phone and just cannot put it down? Suffer from the inability to disconnect and pay full attention to what´s happening around you? Forest provides an interesting solution to beat your phone addiction, its tag line is "put down your phone and focus on what´s more important in your life” and it helps you do this in a brilliant and tranquil way. Open the app and set a timer for how long you want to be productive (30 minutes, at least) and it plants a little virtual tree. The tree will grow over the time you´ve set, and if you disturb your phone during that time the tree will die. All the trees you plant show up in a little virtual forest, whether you successfully raised them or not, so there’s also that incentive to ignore your phone for the entire period of time you set. The sense of achievement and responsibility will drive users to stay away from their phone. The app also gives you coins while you focus on your work. After gathering enough coins, you might be able to have a tree planted in the real world, too! Available for iOS and Android
