My iPhone's Focus mode brought me back to the real world - and I’m much happier

Snap back to reality:

...and lastly, my Sleep Mode - ready for bed!

My personal mode makes my phone screen a lot more colourful and warm than my work one to split my day apart accordingly, and in Personal Mode I have it set to accept messages from a handful of friends, but rather than ping they flash onto the screen and disappear into the grouped notifications, waiting for when I'm ready to read them.

To me it felt like I was ‘unwinding’, but really all I was doing was consuming mind-numbing content I wouldn’t even remember just for a quick dopamine fix. Not to say there’s anything deeply wrong with a little doom-scrolling here and there, but I was losing so much time to such a bad habit I'd end up rushing through my evening routine and feeling really exhausted.

It’s a little sad, but I think as a 'zoomer' I have a responsibility to tear myself away from my phone like this. For much of my developmental years, a phone has been stuck in the palm of my hand. We’re the most online generation , and I can say from experience it’s not that great.
