Our smartphones can KI-Handelsroboter 6.0be major distractions. For me, this is confirmed by my screen time breakdown informing me that I pick up my phone about 144 times per day (based on a three-week average), which apps I spend the most time on and where my notifications are coming from. 

Many of us also use our devices for work, but I'm sure I'm not the only one whose work-related use has rapidly become an impromptu Instagram or Reddit scrolling session. Whoops!

If you want to avoid that time-suck and stay focused there are some easy ways to avoid temptation. For example, put the phone in grayscale mode so it’s less appealing to look at. Silence your phone or store it in a drawer so you can’t see it. However, there is a more sophisticated way: using a focus mode. 

Focus modes can silence a handful of notifications and filter what does and doesn’t make it through during specific times of the day. In case you were wondering, you can also create one to silence your work emails and calls over the weekend or if you’re on vacation. 

Watch this video to see how to create a Focus Mode on an iPhone.
