The book provides you with a method to reflect on, become aware of and change your smartphone habits.We don’t have to give up our smartphones – it wouldn’t make sense – but we should be able to decide when and how to use them.We will see the impact that smartphones have had on our lives since 2007 – when the first iPhone came out.More than anything else, the book shows us how the time we spend on our smartphones is determined by apps and devices, which are designed to dramatically increase usage time in order to boost their value.Now that services such as Netflix have identified sleep as their worst competitor, who’s going to worry about our well-being?
