1/ A month ago today I bought a flip phone. Originally intended as an emergency device (especially during foul weather). Forwarded calls and texts to the new phone. The results are in: less anxiety and stress, more present and engaged during social interactions, increased focus overall, nearly apathetic to social media, decreased FOMO, decreased less neck/back pain.
This net win was genuinely unexpected! My #smartphone is only for #mfa #signalapp #osmand and #strava.

2/ The #android app I use to forward texts is called "SMS Forwarder." Free from Google Play. This incredibly flexible and robust tool lets you forward texts, RCS chats, and other message types based on rule sets and variables to other destinations beyond another phone number. Each rule can be independently enabled/disabled.
This app has been indispensable at configuring a smoother experience for using two devices while simultaneously setting healthy boundaries.
