I installed the launcher app 0 Launcher a few months ago to avoid getting distracted by youtube and browser. That needs two things-one to add friction into using those apps, and second to provide an alternative to channel the boredom and anxiety into a different activity. The first part works due to the launcher, and for the second, I have my kindle.
To the original question, how effective has the launcher app been, and the answer is not as bad as I feared.
My app usage hasn't gone into ridiculous number of hours, and I can easily redirect my energies into productive uses. Yeah I could be using those apps in the sub-hour time but I'd have to have a solid productive use of that time instead. It's been good and it could be better!
