What Is a Good Way to Fight Phone Addiction

From the episode: Interview with Justin Kan, co-founder of Twitch and a former partner at Y Combinator.

Recently Justin did an experiment where he tried to replace his phone with an Apple Watch. That did not work as he still wanted utility apps, like ride sharing or parking, or to read a book on a Kindle.

So far it seems to be helping with the phone addiction.
