How to control your phone usage in a week.
Few simple steps below, try it out.
With the pandemic going on, internet usage is through the roof.
With everyone staying at home all the time, the only way of communication is the phone.
This is leading to an ever-increasing cases of phone addiction.
Follow 3 simple steps to get rid of the addiction —
1- Turn off the notifications.
It’s simple. It’s so easy. Just long press the notification you receive, and you should get an option to turn it off(android)
In IOS, long press(or swipe left) to get the manage option and turn it off.
2 — Delete the app.
If you’re thinking that you browse FB all the time. Or most of your time is spent on Insta.
DELETE THE APP.
I repeat, delete the app from your phone.
Use it from the browser.
As the apps are not as “reachable” as they were, you would use them less.
And typing it out each time in chrome would make you realize how often you use it.
3- Delete the Browser History after every use.
This works side by side step 2.
Delete the app, so you use them via browser.
Delete the history and you have to login manually each time.
All the apps have ensured that they let you save passwords so that you can login easily. This makes them more addictive.
Deleting history(saved passwords) counters that addiction.
Doing this reduces reachability further and you would automatically wean off apps you’d like to cut down on.
Do these 3 things and you win.!
