Step 1: Choose your scope
Pick one: review apps, review permissions, or review notifications. A pilot works best when the scope stays small and the changes are easy to undo.
Step 2: Make one change
One change per step keeps decisions clean. Example: uninstall one unused app, or quiet one noisy app’s alerts. Stop when the device feels better.
Step 3: Save a simple routine
Repeat the same short pass monthly: apps, permissions, storage, then alerts. A routine beats random fixes.
