one positive life change I’ve made recently - fully separate phone for workout (and bedtime)

- only apps it has are Whoop, Spotify, Eight Sleep and PagerDuty; even Safari is disabled 

- there’s no real bedtime use other than the few nights where Eight Sleep autopilot gets the temperature wrong

big improvement to overall workout routine

the improvement is noticeable even though the only social apps I have on my primary phone are Warpcast and Twitter (don't use IG, Snap, TikTok, etc. etc.)

biggest change is not responding to messages on Telegram or Slack in the middle of a workout

leaves open the opportunity to get paged if something goes really wrong, which is by design

I don’t carry it when out and about when leaving the house but if traveling overnight, I carry it in my backpack

this is the weakness of focus mode - still delivers notifications, just hides it under a banner

when I go to lock screen to change music, I see it

Do you ever use Apple focus modes? It’s like having a second phone

my primary phone essentially has no restrictions other than downtime starting at bedtime and turning off after a few hours

To clarify, you have 2 phones with different apps/restrictions on each?

this feels "easier" than limiting apps usage on one phone. Less ways to "cheat"
might give it a try

yeah I used to do that, stopped at some point

however, my main issue was workout time even more so than bedtime

I really like this mindset. I put my phone away for bedtime and it was one of the biggest unlocks to my morning and night schedules!
