Color
Reducing the color on my phone has made my phone feel less addictive. Most configurations I’ve seen remove all color (greyscale), which I find too extreme. Instead, I’ve opted to remove some color (desaturation).
Set up color reduction
- Navigate to Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size
- Set Increase Contrast to "on"
- Set Differentiate Without Color to "on"
- Tap Color Filters
- Choose Greyscale
- Set the Intensity to taste. I set it to about 75% (this removes 3/4 of the color)
