I turned my iphone into a dumbphone

[@CreativeDimension]

Have u seen the new feature in iOS 17? It’s called assistive access… it makes ur phone into as dumb off a phone as u want. Like just calling access, or u can add msg if u want, etc. it let’s u pick what apps u can use n that’s it… It’s basically a locked down version. Although it is an eyesore, it helps u not use ur phone even more…

[@StopMessinAround75]

No I haven’t heard of that. That’s actually pretty useful, thanks for letting me know!

[@CF.]

Thanks for mentioning that. I looked for a demo video on KZbin. It looks like it would be a cool option for a lot of people.

[@benmelo11]

man this was the best thing i've ever seen in this year thank you very much i couldnt understand the way to turning dump phone in video ( it is kinda complex) but this saved. ( another thanks goes to channel owner because of pinned comment)

[@gitarzzan1]

I hope the rest of the video is good. I deleted my KZbin app halfway thru the video

[@johnlangston4108]

A straightforward video without a lot of useless fluff. Thanks!

[@confusionxp3624]

I lowkey love your videos bro

[@Jade_d577]

the app library part was the most usefull in this vid, Thankyou!

[@ninjanerdstudent6937]

It is easy to turn an iphone into a dumb phone. Just "delete" all apps except for call, text, and navigation. The bloat can't actually be deleted, but it can be hidden.

[@harshil1265]

Bloatware can be deleted in Android devices by universal Android debloater.. that's why android is better

[@oliverpolden]

@@harshil1265 oh, I’ve spent my life wondering how Android is better that iPhone. Now I know the one reason. Thank you.

[@ninjanerdstudent6937]

@@harshil1265 True, but not everybody can afford to purchase a new or used phone in an instant.

Trying this as well... though my phone is on os 7 so not a lot of apps work because of updates.

Ngl? Tiktok is the worst offender when it comes to social media addiction but other than that great video ❤

No link in the description, but at least I’m awakening between worlds of convenience and true joy- *Sorry I tried.*

[@ZwelMunWint]

good video. shortcut trick is good but i still am annoyed by the page of app library. haha

[@unkn0wn_416]

I did this multiple times in the past and always come back to the "normal" use (addictive)... For some people, like me, the solution is get rid of it.

[@Tyjo_420]

Great video! You got my sub

[@Battlinguy2]

nice vid

[@K_240YT]

2 views and no likes? How?

[@BetoHam]

what about a dumb-computer?

[@StopMessinAround75]

I do restrict access to a lot of apps and websites on computer, but personally I use my computer for this channel and multiple hobbies. I don't believe it to be harmful since it's stuck in one place (or if you have a laptop, you'd have to take the effort to take it out of your backpack).

[@sanjamjeetsingh7426]

Achieving similar results were way more convenient on android; after switching to iphone i jus wanna go back asap

[@Vedant-tb1po]

That's a fairly good video for so less views

[@endezeichengrimm]

Solid tips.

[@hanne9222]

why not sell your iPhone and get a dump phone?

[@StopMessinAround75]

Only problem with that would be that I use my iphones camera on a daily basis for my youtube haha!

[@rd7002]

Yeah for people who use their phone for work, it's not possible. I need slack, whatsapp and camera for work, so I installed a minimalist launcher and blocked all social media apps. It's great now.

[@ry2456]

Great ideas. Thanks, I will integrate some of them. I have have a Nokia 225, mp3 player and an iPhone SE. I have used the Nokia for several 1 month stints. I have gone back and forth between phones honestly. Trying to dial in the best setup. My latest and probably best modifications are 1: when at home plug the phones into the charger in the dinning room and don’t carry them around. Use the computer as needed for internet tasks. 2: I switched from an unlimited data plan to an mvnu with call, text and 1 gb data. It cost me in total 85 ish dollars for the whole year of service. This way when I am out of the house I am forced to save the data for just in case situations, but it is there. Podcasts can be downloaded say once a week in a few minutes at home. MP3s can be made off my cd collection.

[@StopMessinAround75]

sounds like a good setup to me!

[@Pichuizcute]

Dud lovely

[@samsungfan-]

Might be a stolen idea but im not sure.

[@StopMessinAround75]

The idea was definitely inspired by a lot of other creators. In my description, you'll be able to see which video's I used as references. They're all really good, you should check them out!
