My life has been super busy lately. I miss posting here. Thank you for not giving up on me and my little online garden.
Assistive Access on the iPhone might help you get close to what you saw in the Minimalist Phone app for Android.

Hey!
Yes, for the iPhone, the app is already included! You can use the “focus” feature and have one focus-page for your most important apps and have everything else in another “focus”, which you only access when needed. Hard to explain, I can send you a video of my iPhone screen and how I use it.
I loooove the function and tell everyone about it! I use it to switch between work mode (iPhone only shows work related apps and notifications) and private mode and “simple life mode” for evenings with just Spotify and phone function. It feels like I have 3 different phones and always the perfect one at hand which I need.

Also, I use the “grayscaling” function on my iPhone, everything is gray, which also makes it less dopamine inducing.
I also just found the app on my iPhone to be downloaded: https://apps.apple.com/de/app/on-point-minimal-home-screen/id6476465213 but I will keep using my “focus” feature as I need my phone for work functions

I think the app “Blank Spaces” might be what you’re looking for. The Sweet Setup recently ran a how-to on setting it up: https://thesweetsetup.com/blank-space-minimalist-iphone-homescreen/

Hi, for a minimal iPhone Home-Screen, you can use the App “on Point”. I wrote about it on my blog.
