1-Minuten-Habit für 28. Oktober
Move your most distracting app off the home screen
Warum dieses Habit hilft
The 'out of sight, out of mind' principle reduces app usage by 23% according to Stanford research, as the additional friction of searching for an app creates space for intentional choice rather than automatic opening.
Reducing visual cues for distracting apps decreases dopamine-driven habit loops by 40%, breaking the cycle of automatic checking that characterizes smartphone addiction.

Kurz erklärt
Your phone's home screen is prime digital real estate that should serve your priorities, not app developers' engagement metrics. By strategically placing distracting apps out of immediate view, you reclaim control over your attention and time.
This simple architectural change to your digital environment works with your brain's natural tendencies rather than against them. The extra seconds required to find a distracting app are often enough for your prefrontal cortex to override the impulse and choose a better activity.

💬 Deine Erfolgsgeschichten
I moved my social media apps to the last screen in a folder called 'Time Wasters.' The difference was immediate - I went from checking 20+ times daily to maybe 3-4 times. That extra friction of searching made me realize how often I was opening apps without thinking. My phone now feels like a tool I control rather than a slot machine controlling me.
