nifty..
Just had a conversation with my friend who said he feels depressed and has been doom scrolling non stop. Doomscrolling and algos are a mental health crisis
You want me to pay $50 when I can just click airplane mode? 😂
You’re stronger than me. I dont want the ability to switch it on.
The only notifications I have active, are for zaps. 🤷
I think it blocks the apps completely. I don’t have notifications on but it’s almost just as bad cause I go check
I haven’t looked into this but pretty sure you can set up your phone like this for free without that device. iPhone has an automation feature that is pretty detailed. I’m sure you can use it to disable certain apps at different times.
Your pretty sure < my sisters experience
I mean both will work but the free option takes a little more effort lol
I can’t be trusted. I want no ability to unbrick it while I’m out of the house
In that case it’s probably useful for you as a tool for discipline. My friend deleted all browser apps on his phone. I thought it was a weird decision but when I listened to him explain his reasoning, it made some sense to me. He said wtf is so important that I have to look it up on my phone? If it’s that important I’ll look it up on my computer. But most of the time it’s not important enough for him to go out of his way to power on his computer to look it up.
This is another option for creating an Apple based, distraction free minimalist phone:

Interesting.
Experiment beginning.
Trying to find the balance between monkey and computer.
