SleepTown
A gamified sleep habit app where you plant a virtual building at bedtime and it grows overnight if you do not use your phone. Consistent sleep schedules build a virtual town over time.
Why It’s Useful
It turns the abstract goal of better sleep hygiene into a tangible, visual reward system. The gentle accountability of not wanting to destroy your building is surprisingly effective at reducing late-night phone use.
