In this Digital Detox Reset, I’m getting my tech (and my brain) ready for a focused 2026 by doing a full clean-out of my phone, social media, email, photos, and even my laptop/iPad. I start with my iPhone 13 (yes, it’s “old” and yes, I’m keeping it) and do a real declutter: deleting unused apps, turning my four chaotic app pages into one organized page with folders, switching to a calming Pinterest home/lock screen, and shutting off notifications I truly don’t need (Pinterest, H&M, Starbucks… it was honestly too much). I also try to tackle my Safari tabs situation—500 tabs—and complain because why is there still no “select all” option? Then I move into a social media reset by unfollowing accounts that don’t match what I use Instagram for (travel only) and cleaning up the energy of my feed. After that, I do an email and messages detox: I unsubscribe from a ton of junk using Gmail’s “Manage subscriptions” feature, create practical labels (like Appointments and Vacation with nested country folders), and update my Messages settings to save space by keeping messages for 30 days and expiring audio messages fast. Finally, I clean up my Photos app (deleted 166 photos, mostly duplicates from travel) and do quick resets on my laptop and iPad—because I’m already pretty strict about clutter, especially with Final Cut Pro taking up space. This is just the first part of my 2026 prep, but it’s a solid start.
