true to that and also most os's give pretty good individual app control these days. the only thing i can see is special group controls. to be honest i do not really see the addiction factor especially to the device itself, it's possible functions i suppose. i have seen people that can have very strange addictions though like gambling but there are some very unique ones specific to individuals all of these types are neurological as opposed to physical addiction though.

like you i find them annoying as well but keep important ones like appointments and such.
