I love my iPhone but can’t stand the sight of red dots showing something new. This red dot-itis means I’m compelled to ‘just quickly check’ so I can erase the redness and all is well again. Of course this takes me away from whatever I was doing, often brings me down a rabbit hole and I lose focus. So my resolution, get comfortable being uncomfortable! Red dots will have to wait. Another idea is to move busy apps off my home screen. If you share the same aversion, drop me a line I’d love to know your workaround.
