Consider using this type of app while you are in a meeting, when you’re at the movies, or when you are driving.
Learn a new skill – take a dance class or guitar lessons. Plan a trip, and learn a new language to use while you’re there. Take up a new hobby - go skydiving, biking, or hiking.
Put a key charm with a bell on your phone. You won’t be able to check your phone during class without jangling the bell.
Try Drunk Lock. Simply activate the app when you leave the house for the evening. If you try to text someone on your blocked list, you’ll have to solve a series of simple math problems to unblock their number.
If you have difficulty resisting the lure of your phone, turn it off during certain activities. Vow not to use it while you are working on a certain project, when you’re at the gym, or while you watch a movie with your family.
Your friends and family will appreciate the novel sensation of having your undivided attention.
Turn your phone off, not just the ringer. Otherwise, you’ll be tempted to check it anyway.
If you are in the car, put your phone in the trunk. You can also put your phone it in your bag and stow it under a seat.
The app will always let you call 911.
