My wife and I purchased dumb phones but there were a few pain points we encountered. First, my wife especially would get lost and so we were going to need to buy a GPS, possibly for both cars. We also have a two year old and capturing moments with a camera was limited; we figured we'd end up spending $500 or more on a camera with equivalent features to an iPhone.
Eventually we settled on enabling the parental controls on one anothers phones. I aggressively turn off notifications, to the point where my laptop doesn't even display the time as I consider it a distraction to constantly glance at the clock.
- Feuilles_Mortes 9y agoDo you have web blocking on safari enabled? When a friend and I tried this, there was no way to block individual sites that did not also block many sites with seemingly arbitrary rules (stackoverflow was blocked, even though it was not on my blacklist).
- wincy 9y agoYeah we ended up blocking everything. I’ve found that I almost never actually need Safari. It was annoying though because my wife figured out that Google Maps has a browser baked in (maps “Googleplex” and you have google search) , so we’re stuck using apple maps.
