The brain gets literally rewired to switch – to constantly seek out novelty, which makes putting the phone down difficult. In a recent survey of smartphone use by an institute, about a third of respondents said they were “constantly” checking their smartphones, and a little more than two-thirds said that they went to bed with a smartphone by their side. New companies see a business opportunity in helping people cut back. Firstly, Ringly does this by connecting its rings to a smartphone filter so that users can silence Gmail or Facebook notifications while preserving crucial alerts, which cause the ring to light up or vibrate. In addition, Smartwatches like the Apple Watch are designed to encourage more glancing and less phone checking. Lastly, Levi’s announced plans for a line of high-tech clothes that will allow people to do things like turn off a ringing phone by swiping their jacket cuff. However, some psychologists are skeptical about the devices. They say that successful treatment of smartphone addiction is about controlling our demons – not outsourcing them. They strongly believe that in technology, as in life, a little willpower goes a long way.
