The score is the average of the four axes. Higher means you respond more readily to strong stimulation.
You already turned notifications off — you actually took the countermeasure yourself. It made no difference, because you go and open the apps anyway. Nobody called you; you launch, you buy, you drift. You blocked the stimulus from outside and started sourcing it from within. The fix was correct. The opponent turned out to be you.
Sounds familiar?
- Every notification is off and your check count has not dropped
- Any few idle seconds get filled with something, always
- You slightly resent that you can still reach it through the browser after deleting the app
One small step
- Muting did not work, so add friction instead: take the app off the home screen.
- Practise not filling the boring few seconds — once a day is enough.
