One small thing that I have done that I have found leads to at the very least more productive use of my spare digital time—and that is just setting up the Apple night-time DND feature. It doesn’t give you a very prominent notification, so I often find myself checking my phone far less because I don’t even see the notifications, and don’t even realize I’m in DND mode. You can also set up pass-through for trusted contacts or urgent calls, but I find it is a very easy measure to implement and I’ve seen it’s value in my own life. You can also do similar things for work related notifications (ie. I had github and slack apps automatically muted after 5pm). I find that the approach of letting the notifications pile up and then checking at my leisure let’s me slowly start to forget about my phone except when it serves an actual purpose.
