In this video, I’m going to lay out some of my top tips for customizing your i-phone 11 to reduce stress and create healthier habits around your relationship with your phone. Boost productivity at work by minimizing distractions using simple tips like greyscale, muted notifications and habitually keeping your phone in airplane mode. Plus I’ll give you a video tutorial on how to create your own personal icons on your home screen as part of my digital minimalism overhaul.

Step-by-step tutorial:
Open up your “Shortcuts” app. From there, click on the plus sign on the upper right hand side. You’ll see a bar that says “add Action” — click on that. At the top of the screen type in the words “Open App.” A small icon will appear in the “Actions” section below — click on that. That brings you to a new page called “New Shortcut” where you’ll click on the blue highlighted word “App.” Then choose any of your apps from the drop down list. In this example, we will use the app “Evernote.” Click on it. It will bring you back to the shortcut page where you will then click the word “Next” at the top of the screen. Type in the name for your app. Then click the icon and from here you can customize the color and image for your icon. Click done at the top and when it brings you back to the customize page, click done again. Finally you’ll see a list of all you’re shortcuts. Click the three small dots on the upper right hand corner and then again when it opens up the customization page. Lastly, you’ll see the bar that says “Add to Home Screen.” Click on it. It will show you a preview, at which time you can change the color of icon again. Then click Add and you’re all set!
