Adding on to this: liberal use of Do Not Disturb and practicing good phone etiquette in social settings.
A good set of wireless headphones with a mic and liberal use of the voice assistant makes it so you don’t even need to look at your phone for about 60%-80% of what you want to do, so if you want to put on a podcast or some music without the so-called risk of feeding your addiction to some game/social network/bs app, there you go.
Oh and don’t have apps installed that you’re not going to use, put everything essential on the first page and bury everything else, only using search to call them up.
- Jtsummers 8y agoI do a cleanup periodically on my phone. I'll move most apps to a small set of folders on the 3rd screen (first screen or dock contain the most useful or used apps, second screen is for the rest). If I open an app on the 3rd screen, I move it to the first two or the dock. If, after some period of time any apps are still on that third screen, I delete them. It's the same technique I use for clearing out my closet or other areas of my home and office. Pack things away (but still technically accessible), and if you use them put them where they should be stored for use. After a few months, give away, trash, or sell the remaining contents.
- derwiki 8y agoI take it even further and put all apps in a folder on my 2nd screen, and use spotlight to launch apps. Easier to not forget what I was doing and open up any time consuming app. Either I know what I want to do or I put my phone away.
