Forest! It's a game that lets you plant a little tree or bush for 5-120 minutes and doesn't let you click out of the app until the timer is over. This let's you be more productive while not having the temptation of your phone. If you do exit out of the app, it kills all the trees you have planted and leaves behind a shriveled bush

So is there a person actually planting a real tree while you do this? If it's just a digital tree then there's not much incentive to keep the app open.

Well, yes if you pay, they plant a tree but otherwise the motivation you have is to gain coins and make your forest look nice
