That's amazing!

Now give me a tip to prevent myself from opening the same app immediately after hahaha

Instead of closing an app, shutdown the phone. Now it's a pain to reopen the app.

With how fast phones start up nowadays, that's hardly a pain

I changed the icon location, and my muscle memory still was trying to open them from the previous location, basically in a complete auto-pilot mode. That led me to a realization of how fucked up the situation was, and eventually helped me uninstall/reduce screen time of those apps.
