Sensory overload from enticing, colorful attention-grabbing icons is fooling your brain into thinking the screen is important. Impulse-driven apps hijack your focus. People end up distracted by notifications, procrastinating and wasting away their lives on mindless scrolling. We open apps absentmindedly and fill our minds with cognitive noise that makes us overwhelmed by those dopamine-wasting apps. Apps that you open on impulse and that steal your attention. The Delay Apps functionality is similar to one sec or screenzen but nicer. Simplicity with a wholesome, calm atmosphere. Digital minimalism and digital detox in a modern dumb phone for deliberate use. Stay focused with a remarkable experience, promoting positive and productive habits and deep work. Reduce screen time and digital clutter. Welcome back your focus and attention!<br><br><br>•<br><br><br>Slow down impulses before you get lost in them – pause and let your smart brain areas get back in charge.<br><br><br>•<br><br><br>[Use with any launcher]
