Okay wow: with this trick you'll immediately spend half as much time on your phone

The first object you touch when you wake up and the last one. Pretty intense, right? Phone makers are sneaky, they do everything to keep us engaged with their product for as long as possible. But there is a trick to outsmart them and it's simple too: remove all colors from your phone. Yes, really. Set your screen to black and white. When you do that, it literally becomes boring to be on your phone. Everything looks the same, messages no longer shout at you, and even scrolling through Instagram becomes dull, making you finish everything much faster.

Worth a try, right? I just started it to see if it works. On an iPhone:

1. Go to ‘Settings’
2. Go to ‘Accessibility’
3. Go to ‘Display and Text Size’
4. Go to ‘Color Filters’
5. Press ‘On’
6. Et voilà: a super boring phone with shades of gray where you feel there's no fun left to be had. Enjoy the peace, okay?.
