How to Stare at Your Phone Without Losing Your Soul
But its more than that.<p>I might visit Reddit and Hacker News, not because the app summoned me via notifications, but because my brain summoned the app, after just a 15 minute hiatus.<p>The issue is that browser and certain apps are available to me on the phone instantly.<p>And there are no good controls to help me me MINDFUL.<p>What I want from the phone (I use an iPhone):
- Upon every unlock, or upon every app open, I should receive a popup asking me why I want to use the app/phone.
- I can enter whatever I want in that popup, but that writing exercise of a few words will help me realize if I am making a mistake of using the crack-gadget too often.
- I should be able to white-list apps.
- I should be able to see my logs all in one place for later review and reflection.
