Put the phone down for an hour. Or, better yet, wait 24 hours – you can earn $ 2,400 from it.
To help determine who should apply, the company asks some thoughtful questions.
“Have you always wanted to win reality competitions like the American Ninja Warrior, but have you been too busy trying to beat Mario Kart and Mortal Kombat?” Reviews.org asks potential candidates.
“Do you know a little too much about your old social media acquaintances?”
According to the company, the ideal candidate is someone who “definitely likes technology” and is ready for a challenge. And while it may seem easy to do an Instagram detox for a day, the challenge is a little more complex.
It’s not as easy as it looks
Those selected for the challenge will not only have to turn off their phones during the day, but also television, games, computers, smart watches and smart home devices (think smart speakers).
But, explains the company, the microwave is still good.
Challengers will receive safes to store their electronics for 24 hours, along with a $ 200 gift certificate from Amazon to assemble a “survival kit” without technology, the company wrote.
Some suggestions from Reviews.org’s survival kit include a typewriter to replace computers, writing paper to replace texts and inks and brushes to replace the fine art of the selfie.
Challengers will have to review the survival kit and give feedback on the experience after completing the challenge – but they will do so while holding the coveted title “Digital Detox Challenger 2021”.
Screen time is an increasing health risk
“We have a feeling that someone needs a break,” wrote Reviews.org.
