Interesting. Wouldn't work for me. I simply wouldn't use it because I know that every time I did and wanted to bypass it to use my phone I would. I would like to be able to use that same impulsivity that causes me to be glue to screens to impulsively block those screens for a long time. So if I wake up and decide in a moment that today is an analog day I make that decision and I am locked in. Having to reinstall an OS and lose data is the only deterrent that will work. One android app I used mentioned the "guilt" of having to reboot one's phone to use it again. No guilt here. I need to put myself in jail and throw away the key for a set time.
