Tony Fadell, former company engineer Apple and the "Father of the iPod" , thinks the company should address a certain addiction that users have developed to the iPhone. The Apple phone changed our lives, now we should deal with it, according to Fadell. In the interview, he compares manufactured products and technologies to food in the way that some are "healthy", some are "unhealthy" and in the end, everything is very harmful to us.

“When it comes to digital nutrition tables, we don't know what 'vegetables', 'protein' or 'fat' are. What is "overweight" and what is "underweight"? What does a healthy digital lifestyle look like? The answers should be given to us by manufacturers and application developers. And that's before the government does it with its regulations. As was the case with nutrition tables,” Fadell said in a new interview, continuing: "I believe, that Apple maintains and continuously expands its customer base. This problem can be solved at the platform level. And that's by giving customers more insight into how they use their devices. This should allow people to better observe and correct their digital activity.”

Fadell would like users to enjoy the device Apple they could set the way they want to use it. According to his vision, you could turn on the "read-only" mode without a long search in the settings, and thus read an electronic book without being disturbed by all kinds of notifications. One might argue that Apple does not bear any responsibility for how we use it iPhoneThat's true, but try to deliberately look (Settings -> Battery -> tap the clock) at how much time you spent in each app today.
Fadell's controversy may soon become a reality. Server Bloomberg He said that Apple is working on something similar. The new version of the operating systems should include a feature that will allow parents to monitor the amount of time their children spend looking at screens during the day, whether on an iPhone, iPad or Mac. The new feature could allow a child, for example, to use their iPad for another 20 minutes after completing homework. Fadell adds that today's academics are of the opinion that it is better to manage the time spent on these devices than to limit it. He also revealed that he himself uses the Circle application, which can be downloaded from App Store.
