Cannot Declutter a Chaotic Phone
Tame a disorganized phone that feeds distraction.
The Problem
Your home screen is a junk drawer of apps, notifications blink from every corner, and opening your phone is an invitation to chaos. The clutter itself triggers mindless opening and scrolling.
Strategies to Overcome It
- 1Move all social apps into one "junk" folder off the home screen.
- 2Turn off notifications for everything but calls and texts.
- 3Delete apps you have not opened in 30 days.
- 4Use a calm, single-color wallpaper to reduce stimulation.
- 5Set app limits for your worst time-sinks.
Your 2-Minute Action
Open your home screen and move your three most distracting apps into a folder named "Later." Extra taps add friction.
