Personally I don't want a dumber phone. Smart phones have net-increased my quality of life, although that may be because I have always stood away from mainstream social media. However I want companies to loose their "we need to funnel our entire product through an app" attitude. I was recently looking for some Nanoleaf-style lighting elements for some indirect light at my workstation. I failed to find any that doesn't require an app to control basic things like brightness etc. It's just a fancy adjustable lightbulb. Just put a physical on/off switch and a dial for brightness on the panel.
