I have a zero strike policy: no social media, no games, no notifications. My phone is a tool, not a boss.

  This. It’s not even worth playing the one strike game anymore, waste of time.

    Yep, I've mostly given up on the one strike rule and gone to a "don't install any phone app unless absolutely necessary" rule. Much of the time I can avoid the app by either using their web site, or just forgoing whatever functionality the app provides. Airline apps, which can be useful during a trip, get installed when the trip begins and uninstalled as soon as the trip is over.

      I am even more of a luddite. I just use the kiosk at the airport and get a physical ticket printed.

        What if your ticket runs out of battery?

          Paper is not yet battery-bound, thankfully

      I agree with that. I avoid most apps. Airline apps haven’t been problematic though. I give location only while using the app. And I’ve never received advertising notifications. It’s quite nice to pull down an eticket into Apple Wallet and have it on my watch.
