Heat Advisory in effect as temperatures climb above 100 degrees

Many people have returned to flip phones because they don't want all the stress and distractions of doomscrolling on their phones. Maybe you don't want to turn in your iPhone for something else -- it does have other functions, after all. The app Dumb Phone can give you the best of both worlds. When you have the app on, it turns your home screen into just a few functions. No more icons showing you all the apps that you probably don't use. You can have just the phone, messages, camera, photos, and safari or messenger. It also lets you set up different "dumb phone" screens, depending on how you want to use your phone. Dumb Phone is a new app. It's free on iTunes with a subscription model to a pro version.
