How I'm staying off my phone in the morning
As a college student I have to wake up early most days, but for a long time I've struggled with getting up without looking at my phone. If I don't look at my phone I feel like I'll fall back asleep and if I do then I get distracted.
Since I'm a computer science major I did the obvious thing and made an app to help me. So every morning I get a text to my phone with some reminders, weather info, links to news articles, sports scores, and some other things. So instead of going to a bunch of different apps with notifications and ads, I just get some information in text that isn't that distracting.
I also just added email delivery for people who prefer that over a text. (The text and emails cost money to cover API usage and delivery fees, but I also made a free dashboard where you can just see your message every day on the website) https://www.goodmornin.app
