Forest: help you prevent yourself from using your phone all the time

[AmyJeng]

Hi, everyone, we are students from Taiwan. We designed an app trying to solve the phone addiction issue nowadays.

The app is called "Forest: Stay focused, stop phubbing". Forest uses an interesting way to help you put down your phone and focus on what's more important in your life, such as making your dream come true and enjoying the time with friends and family.

If you're a phone addict and want to cut it out. Forest must be a great app for you.

Here is our app: http://www.forestapp.cc

A very cute idea but there is a bit of irony associated with an app for your iPhone that is tailored to help you use your iPhone less.

Maybe it is only an app that can prevent you from using apps.

It's like FarmVille in a miniature scale! We should be able to plant other stuff too.

Yeah, we are working on that. There will be more kinds of trees in the future.
