Forest

Forest is an app to help you control your phone addiction. If you can’t resist looking at your phone while at work, in class or when you're out with friends, this app can help. When you want to focus, select for how long and hit Start. The app “plants“ a tree that starts growing when you keep your phone aside. Do anything with your phone and the tree dies -- start over, black thumb! As you keep focusing longer and longer, you build up a forest of your progress. Best of all, you can spend your points towards planting real trees.

Free: Android, $1.99: iOS
