> The one thing I’ve found that works for me on my phone is the OneSec app.

Sometimes the simplest solution is the Luddite one; put the phone down and step away from it.

If this appears to be an insurmountable ask, or otherwise infeasible, I humbly suggest there is a greater concern to be addressed than what yet another app on the phone which cannot be distanced may remedy.



I agree, this is the pathway. For me, this is the tool I’ve found that works to nudge me down that pathway by adding extra friction to the routes to cheap, crap dopamine. Often an interruption from this app is accompanied by my brain going “huh, so what do you really want to use this time for?”.


It’s too true. If your problem is your phone, the solution won’t be found on your phone.
