There’s another solution, much faster, it’s to use Screen Time and have your partner own the passcode. I hold my partner’s phone passcode and it’s fantastic to control when he’s allowed to doom scroll

I can't believe how much stuff he configured on a "dumbphone"

why not:

- phone app

- messages

- calendar

- clock

- notes

- reminders

Author here: those already come with the standard iPhone setup.

I understood.

But I say, don't install your list, and further uninstall "extra" apple apps.

I know you don't need apple tv+ or apple news

do you really need mail?

I wonder if you even need safari?

Seems like way more work than learning to be disciplined.

Are you disciplined about everything you need/want to be disciplined about? Food, exercise, sleep, reading, work, family... You've got it all dialed to a perfection, yes? If not, why not? It is after all easy to learn to be disciplined.

I cant believe people have to do this...what a world! nice to have the option I guess!

I don't think the author has to do this. They just prefer to.

Aside from not having a phone, how could someone not have the option?

I really want to thank you for this comment; how it gave a well-needed jolt to my pride and taste for discipline.
