The only time i turn it on is if I am expecting a call - which is hardly ever.  Same with my PC - no notifications...it helps a great deal to keep the tool a tool instead of letting it become your master.</text><parent_chain><item><author>geocrasher</author><text>I get the same thing by A) not watching the news B) turning off notifications for almost all apps C) the real magic key to keeping control of your smart phone, instead of letting it control you is&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;buzz&amp;gt; &amp;lt;buzz&amp;gt;&lt;p&gt;hang on&lt;p&gt;Hello?&lt;p&gt;Look I&amp;#x27;m right in the middle of something I&amp;#x27;ll... yeah.
