Uninstall the app

Disable the notifications

Use browser instead of apps
This is also a good way to keep away from unnecessary distractions. Let’s say, you want to search for a video on YouTube, don’t do it with the YouTube app, there are many addictive elements on the YouTube app, and it is so convenient and comfortable that you will keep scrolling, instead just use your phone’s browser for a task like this.
Put the phone in silent mode
This is a very underrated feature every phone company provides. If you want to focus on your work and you don’t want any kind of distraction then simply put your phone on silent for that particular time frame. It is a work of just one click.
Use time tracker apps
These smartphone habits are mostly subconscious. It happens sometimes that we find ourselves scrolling Youtube or Instagram and we can’t remember when we opened the app. We waste hours on these apps daily, for no good reason. There are lots of time tracker apps that can help you break these habits. You can easily get them on the google play store.
