Have you ever noticed at the airport whenever you have a digital boarding pass the attendant will make you scan it yourself? They never want to touch your phone unless they have gloves on. That is because smartphones are disgusting these days. People are addicted to their smartphones and take them with them everywhere, including the bathroom.<\/strong> We need to do something to tackle smartphone addiction.<\/p>\n

Of course, there is an app for that. There is a smartphone app to help you fight your smartphone addiction.<\/strong> You couldn\u2019t make it up.<\/p>\n

Siempo tries to calm everything down. Your smartphone is like a shop window for all those developers who\u2019ve convinced you to download their app<\/strong>. Everything on your screen is designed to catch your eye and draw you in. It is no wonder you are addicted to smartphones when even app icons have been designed to stop you switching off. Siempo counters this by showing you a plain screen with plain app icons.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another Siempo feature is that you can group notifications. Rather than constantly being buzzed you can ask Siempo only to let you know about app notifications at certain times<\/strong> of the day. This\u2019ll mean your smartphone won\u2019t constantly be trying to grab your attention even when it is in your pocket.<\/p>\n

Siempo started out as a smartphone<\/strong>, but lack of interest meant it never made it to market. An app is much cheaper to develop for a wider release, though, so here we are. If you think you use your phone too much, it could be worth checking out.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
