Are you addicted to your smartphone? Try the Minimalist Phone application by Slovak Martin

Smartphones are great. They can connect us with loved ones on the other side of the world, easily and accurately navigate to unknown places or inform us about any topic that interests us. And that’s just the beginning. However, they also have several disadvantages. More and more people can’t get away from their devices. Even when it is starting to have a negative effect on their relationships, well-being or ability to work.

Turn your smartphone into a non-intrusive tool

The dark side of smartphones also bothered Martin Morávek, but he did not want to give up his phone completely. He also realized that controlling his addiction only by discipline and willpower was almost impossible. So he decided to create the Minimalist Phone app, which turns your device’s home screen into a simple and unobtrusive environment. It can also block and filter notifications or hide any menu applications or restrict their use.

“The application is suitable for anyone who likes minimalism and wants to use their mobile device more consciously. It is also suitable for people who want to try digital detox, “explained Martin for the Forbes portal. “Users can block any application for up to 7 days. So, if someone wants to try 7 days without social networking on their phone, this is one way to get started. ”

Minimalist Phone has received positive reviews around the world

Most users of the application come from India, but the creator focuses mainly on the markets of the USA, Great Britain or Germany. The application met with a very positive response, which motivates Martina to constantly improve it and is also considering creating a hardware solution. The survey showed that 93% of the users surveyed managed to reduce their time spent on the phone after only three days, which had a positive effect on their mental health.
