I often think about ditching my smartphone. There are a few things that a smartphone puts in your pocket that really make our lives better: nice camera/maps/gps/calling/texting/email/music and podcast streaming Really, the negatives of having a computer in your pocket can be summed up by: gaming/transactional purchases/social media/news media None of those things inherently bad, but they do tend to be addictive. So, maybe we need phones without app stores? A closed off phone with the apps already chosen for it? Where would we draw the line on what gets included on the phone? Would there even really be a market for this kind of smartphone? KaiOS is the only thing that comes close...but it still has an App Store to my knowledge. It probably makes most sense to just delete the addictive apps off of your phone and move on with your life.
