Whether you're using an iPhone or an Android device, he offers practical advice on how to disable unnecessary permissions and protect your personal data. This episode isn't just about privacy, though. Johan also dives into the broader topic of phone addiction and how to break free from compulsive phone use. You'll get tips on using your smartphone more efficiently and mindfully, so it enhances rather than detracts from your life.
