“The primary mechanic behind this app is, strangely enough, capitalizing on how guilty you would feel about killing a digital representation of a tree.”

This is sort of a Pomodoro implementation.

It would be neat if they had an API and could be integrated with Beeminder.

It’s Android too. I tried it and it’s very nicely done. http://www.forestapp.cc/
