I used to spend like 5+ hours a day on twitter and what I found helped me get it down was deleting it off my phone and only looking at it on my computer. Helped me cut down on time without cutting of completely cause there is still stuff I like about the app.

My friend did this! Helped her immensely with cutting back on screen time.

I still go on a couple times a day while I’m on the computer but that amounts to about 20x less than I would be otherwise. Brings down screen time more than you’d think.

What's worked for me is deleting social apps off my phone (out of sight, out of mind) and enabling iOS Screen Time restrictions on the web views of the same social sites. This let's me pop in when neccessary through the browser when friends send me links or I need to catch up with people, but makes it annoying enough that I don't want to hang around. I've done this for over a year and I've gone from checking Twitter and Instagram multiple times a day to barely monthly for Twitter and a few times a week with Instagram.

i recently began to ask myself why am i using all these apps and do i really need all of them, and i started realizing that the things i’ll miss out with these apps is so much more than without them, i knew i had the idea that my worth was tied to my online presence and i’m happy that i’m getting rid of that mentality.. i had so many memories in my snapchat account but i ended up deleting the account and the app because if i didn't do it than i may never, later that day i removed my twitter accounts and the app from my phone and i’m so glad i did, and i replaced them with healthier and less time consuming apps till i decrease my screen time gradually
