Is your phone distracting you? Do you keep reaching for your phone? Spend too much time on certain apps? The Minimalist phone app can help you stick to your digital detox by decluttering and making your phone less distracting and simpler to enhance your productivity and mindfulness - your your control.

UPDATE sep 2022: Have another use for the HIDE feature. I recently find myself going on Instagram a little more after posting some travel pics but need a break. Block is a little too much for what I need so I hid Instagram. Now when I search in my app list it doesn't appear but it's not uninstalled either and I can always unhide or take a few extra clicks to access it. It's a perfect middle ground detox/control.

UPDATE dec 2022: not sure when this was added but you can change the default phone shortcut! I changed mine to the Google phone app so I can easily call businesses directly.

TIP JAN 2023: no block scheduling (yet) but found a workaround
You can set MODES (part of Samsung) or DO NOT DISTURB (part of Android I believe)
- by time so let's say weekdays 8am-5pm (MODES + DND)
- or by place/location (MODES only)
You can select which apps to RESTRICT USAGE. When you try to open it, Samsung (or Android?) will notify you: can't use this app while in "WORK" focus mode (for example, whatever you name it).
