It also helps reducing distraction from any app which you unknowingly might have become addicted to. So if your Focus mode is on, your android application will automatically unpause the apps you are hooked upon and remind you of any other task you are supposed to do.
How effective will it be?
Enabling the focus mode is totally upon the choice of the android user and without your will, the focus mode won’t function at all. Which doesn’t seem much of functionality because mature users post a certain age are highly unlikely to engage in these apps to the point of compromising their schedule. Yes, if they block the notifications then that can surely help reduce a good amount of distraction but once again mature users even after getting notified are mature enough to figure out if they should interact with their application or not.
The digital well-being plan did incorporate a feature that will notify you of the amount of time you devote to each and every mobile application. Perhaps the drastic amounts of time you spend instagramming should be shown in red and post that android should have a life calculator that shall let you know the amount of years you would have to spend on an application if your overuse habits were to continue.
