Ask HN: How do you cope with phone distraction?
1 point by toantruong on July 17, 2020 | hide | past | favorite
I am a young adult in my mid twenties with ADHD condition. For example, when I read some news, I can easily be lost in the rabbit holes of all the news and after 30 minute, I lose my ability to get back to the work. Thus, I have to deploy many tools to block all the media, social networks and news site. On my laptop, I have used Cold Turkey and to be honest, it makes my life a lot better. Now, the problem is with my phone. I use an iPhone 7 and have tried using the default screen time feature of iOS and an app called Freedom. But they are not as strong as ColdTurkey for MacOS. So I would like to know if you know any applications for phone to block distraction and how do you cope with distraction in general? Some of you might refer to will power, but I think it is not enough, we need technology to deal with technology problems. Thank you very much.
