Plant a tree. It dies if you pick the phone up.

Flora is a focus timer with a virtual garden. Start a session, stay in the app, watch plants grow. Friends can join the same plot. The timer is free to try. Premium unlocks more plants and cosmetics through App Store SKUs that vary by region (monthly, yearly, and lifetime rows all appear). Prices checked 21 September 2026 against store listings.
Same flaw as Forest: a determined scroller just force-quits. Use it as a social timer, not as a lock.

A nicer Forest if your study group wants a shared plant. Pair with Freedom if the group is not enough.

A knitting bean that keeps a timer people actually finish.
