Unfortunately, I do not think by turning the display settings to grayscale will change people's behavior. In order to break an addictive habit there has to be some change.
It may be hard to think about, but what they should be measuring is how much use someone is getting by using there phone. How often do you need to check x website, versus responding to your phone for emails.
It has to be a Catch-22 for the apple's and google's of the world that are dependent on consumers consuming content on the devices while making sure that the consumption remains healthy.
