How to Stop Getting Distracted by Your Phone when Studying
2:57:7 2023-10-11 959

1- Switch on the “Do Not Disturb” mode. iPhone and Android phones have settings that allow you to mute all notification beeps and calls during a time of your choosing. When you want to study, you should use your quick settings to turn this mode on, and don’t return to it until you have completed your study session.

  • On iPhones, swipe up from the home screen to access your basic settings. Tap the moon shape and this function will be enabled.
  • On Android phones, pull down the notifications drawer. Swipe down again to access the quick settings. Turn the Do not disturb function and select the amount of time you want it to be active.


2- Download a timing app or use your timer to work for a period of time. After you have turned on your “Do Not Disturb” mode, set your timer for 30 minutes and place it far away from you. When the timer beeps, stop working and take a five to 10 minute break.

  • You can download an app called Pomodoro or Unplugged that set timers for you and tracks your progress. With some of these apps, they remind you to set the phone down if you try to use it during the allotted time.


3- Use Airplane mode to turn off your ability to connect to an outside network. Also, turn off Wi-Fi. This will stop calls and texts from coming through, and it will not allow you to access distracting apps.

4- Inform your friends that you are unavailable when you are studying. Block out regular time when they know you will be unavailable.

5- Place your phone on a shelf or in another area of the room, rather than on your desk.

6- Give your phone to a friend, if you can’t stay away from it. A physical barrier may make you feel ashamed that you can’t do without your phone. Make yourself accountable to someone.
