So ask the user once if they want to be reminded? You might not feel like social media is a toxic influence over your life but many people do.

I think what they are saying is to remove the addiction, not ask if someone want to be reminded to wake up from the addiction.

The question for me comes down to, is there such a thing as social media without the addiction, where the financial incentives to the company aren’t tied to and engagement and behaviour. I’d like to think that’s possible.

Some people feel like television, and phones in general, are bad influences. Should Apple build in reminders for their first party products, too. A popup telling you that talking on the phone for three hours a day is bad for you, or that encourages you to not binge on that TV series?

Those things all exist…
