Maya Oren，27 岁，我们非常担心她与她的智能手机的关系，以及智能手机对她的生活和大脑产生了怎样的影响。（Evelyn Hockstein/华盛顿邮报）
Maya Oren wants to dial back her dependence on her smartphone. She plans to do it slowly by getting a new phone — a simple one that doesn’t download apps or take photos or send her notifications. Her new device will place calls and receive them.
Maya Oren 想要减少她对智能手机的依赖。她计划使用一部简单的、不能下载软件、不能拍照并且不会给她发送通知的新手机，慢慢达成这个目标。
But the 27-year-old Washington entrepreneur isn’t planning to entirely ditch her iPhone to which she has an increasingly dysfunctional relationship.
但是一名 27 岁的企业家表示她不会完全丢弃她的 iPhone ，尽管她人际关系越来越失调。

Oren 的新手机没有电话号码 — 它只简单的接收 Oren 的 iPhone 转接过去的电话，所以 Oren 有时候可以尝试远离那个闪烁的、嗡嗡响的、似乎一直在线的长方形任务栏。

她在考虑买一部新手机，这样她就可以在她的旧手机上少花一点时间。
