That's a good idea, I replaced all my phone icons with cute animal crossing themed ones lol and they no longer have the red notification numbers :) it's cute and less stressful <3

Aw thats such a cool idea! And it makes your phone adorable XD my solution for now is to make everything grayscale and boring lol

The best I've managed to do is to keep my phone physically away from me at certain times of day, like several meters away rather than in reach, and try to replace phone time with other activities. It's really hard though

@pixelglade yeah it's what im trying too, and i agree, i hate how hard it is but i really want my time back xD i know how much time i have in the day when I'm not wasting it scrolling

@kuroi I'm the same, I hate "waking up" from scrolling aimlessly and just feeling like I'm not actually doing anything. Hope you find something that works :)

I have an app that frequently interrupts me when I'm on social media and locks it completely after a certain amount of daily screentime. it's worked really well for me, my phone is becoming less of a distraction and more of a tool. so that may be worth a try if you haven't tried it already!

I wish there was something like that but only for yt shorts xD thats the bane of my existence, and it's tough to use an app lock because sometimes i do watch actually interesting and useful stuff on youtube outside of shorts. So I'm trying to limit my phone usage as a whole and focus on other stuff thats not digital :')

oh yikes, now I do get bit by the yt shorts bug sometimes lol. best wishes on trying to limit your phone usage, it's hard but so worth it!
