So like, you know, like I was flying on a certain airline, I might put the airlines app there during the trip.
Or, you know, if I'm on any kind of trip, if there's like a specific app that is very relevant to that trip, usually I have one or two open spots at the bottom of that home screen that I'll put that app there.
But it's not that interesting.
No, honestly, that whole system I find very convoluted.
And I think it's a whole system designed for CGP Grey to optimize his every moment of everything.
And I respect that kind of...
desire and system building but i don't do that myself like i don't build that complex of a system for myself generally i use a lot of things in their basically default ways i use a lot of things very unstructured or very loosey-goosey much to my detriment sometimes um but
I don't have that level of structure and discipline to my process most of the time.
So I don't use almost any of that stuff.
Like I use the sleep mode at night just because I don't want my screens turning on and being bright in my face, like next to my bed as they charge.
But that's about it.
Like I don't really do any of that stuff.
Yeah, alarms, timers, whatever.
One thing I have found is that AI sucks at making app icons.
It's terrible.
It is so bad.
But I actually, I'll tell you, I spent more time designing that icon than I spent writing code for the app.
