The Freedom App is THE solution for phone addiction. My average screen time nowadays is below half an hour (it used to be around 8 hours). These are the steps you have to follow:

(this guide is for iPhone only. I’m unaware of how Android works)

1-Buy a lifetime subscription for Freedom. It’s expensive but it’s worth it. In this way you make sure that it’ll never stop working if you have a problem with your credit card or if you intentionally decide to cancel the subscription.

2-Create a recurrent session for each day of the week that goes from 1pm to 1pm for example.

3-On the Settings App Open >Screen Time >Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps > Set this to "Don’t Allow". This is how we’re going to make sure that you don’t cheat and decide to delete the Freedom App.

4-But the important part now is to ask for a relative or friend to change your Screen Time Passcode. If you do this then the only way of deleting Freedom is to ask them to reveal something that you asked them not to when you were in your sound mind. Moments of temptation are going to appear but with an external help they won’t be a problem. ((You won’t give in))

5-The same way you did step 4, ask for that same person to change your Freedom password (so that you won’t login from a computer and delete the active session on your phone). And also ask them to change the password of the email associated with the account so that you won’t recover your ‘forgotten’ password that way (yeah this step might sound excessive but trust me desperate times require desperate measures). It’s important to note that you should’nt use your main mail account to create your Freedom account because you are not supposed to have access to it later on.

Of course there are ways to factory reset your phone. But the way I make sure I won’t try to do this is that I currently have 60,745 photos/videos on my iPhone 7 Plus. These files are very precious and I would definitively think twice before deleting them.

And just like that: Freedom.

Yesterday I saw the news that the iPod is discontinnued… Well, following these steps you can turn your iPhone into an iPod and live that sweet offline life.
