DetoxDroid
This app follows a different approach by stripping away all the attention-grabbing and manipulative features of other apps. DetoxDroid does not require you to choose a time and place when you want to "detox", or punish you if you fail. Instead, it aims to enable you to use your phone rather than letting your phone use you.
FEATURES
* Grayscale: Going grayscale removes positive reinforcements and dampens compulsive smartphone use.
* Exceptions: Exclude apps like your camera or gallery from the grayscale feature.
* Automatic Do Not Disturb: Never forget to enter the "Do Not Disturb" mode.
* Opt-out > Opt-in: Deliberately pause DetoxDroid rather than deliberately switching it on.
INSTALLATION
Unfortunately, installing the app on your phone is not enough for the grayscale feature to work. You need to grant the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission to the app from your computer. This usually will not take you more than a few minutes. Find out how to do it on GitHub: https://github.com/flxapps/DetoxDroid#installation
