Dumbphones are so dumb. I just used Apple configurator, installed special profiles that block social network sites / news sites and few addictive apps.
If you want you can block all of appstore, block safari etc.
Why would you block uber on your phone? Also I can still use messenger to chat with my friends and don't have to force them to sms me.
Plus I saved money as I kept my iPhone.
I also can take high quality photos and videos.
I can use google maps.
Dumb phones are dumb. Why on earth would anyone buy one?

- onetimeuse92304 2y ago> Why on earth would anyone buy one? For the same reason I, and a lot of other people, chose to not have sweets and snacks at home. Because we like them and if they were available, we would eat them. We know that this is really bad for health and we also know that we have limited willpower to prevent ourselves from reaching for them. So we elect to help make better decision by just not having them around all the time. I still eat sweets. I just prefer this to be once a week in a form of a good dessert at a good restaurant, right after a good meal. And if I need a snack I make sure to have plenty of alternative, healthy options available at all times -- mostly fresh fruit and veggies.
