The Digital Detox Movement & Deckible's Offline Healthy Habit Mindset
Understanding the Digital Detox Challenge
The digital detox movement is trending for sure.
Digital Detoxers emphasize a disconnection from technology, while Deckible, as a digital tool may seem like a counterintuitive connection.
We beg to differ. It's no more counter intuitive than thinking people can give up their phone. This is not AA. You can never touch alcohol again if you choose, but it's just not practical to never use your phone unless you want to live in isolation or be frustratingly unavailable and out of touch.
We use our Phones
- to call people
- to text or email
- to book meetings & set reminders
- to look up & check information
- to buy things & organize our lives
- to find our way to places
Yes we can consume too much dumb content. We can scroll mindlessly, but our phone plays many key roles in our lives. The phon will continue to be our go to solution for these aspects.
A phone is a tool for doing as much is it is a tool distraction: for games, news, media and social distraction.
The Intelligent Phone Usage Problem
In our opinion the challenge is how to reclaim our attention and not how to give up tech per se. We need to become more conscious of how we use tech, for sure.
We need to prioritize quiet time, alone time, journal time. And the phone can help in this regard. This is all good. We support this thinking 100%
The real challenge is intelligent phone usage. This is not solved by getting off your phone - sure that's part of the solution, but if you can embrace smart use of your digital device, you will find forming healthy habits much easier.
Facilitate a Digital Detox
However, there's a role for Deckible as a tool that facilitates a digital detox rather than hinders it.
Deckible's Role in Digital Detox

- We have customers that turn off data before bed time, then wake to use Deckible to draw cards, journal and meditate. Then when done they turn back on data. This is something we are exploring integrating in Deckible as a setting.
