I really appreciate attempts like this, but I encourage people to actually attempt living without a smart phone first. It isn’t easy. Just viewing a menu in many restaurants is difficult as you lack a QR code scanner hooked to web browser. Next, many people will expect you to have MMS, Signal, WhatsApp or something else. In moments where you realize that you need to look something up for something immediate, you can’t. If someone wants to split a bill and you don’t have a cash, you could Zelle, ah… but nope.
Personally, I hate smartphones and I hate how humans have changed their behaviors in response to them. I also love the utility that a smartphone provides, and I don’t know whether or not we’re better off with or without them.
