Can any special facilities ease the addiction to smartphones?

Innovators have tried hard in different areas to create and develop new equipment and facilities to phone addicts. As far as I know, IKEA designed a special hotpot table for those people who enjoys eating hotpot but will use mobiles while eating with others. When use such table, diners will have to put their smartphones under the pots to provide heat to the hotpot. Without holding mobiles, they finally could simply enjoy their meal and communicate with others. Also, there is a kind of designed lamp, it may be lightened up only by putting the smartphone into it. Thus, if you would like to stay in a bright room, you will have to surrender your smartphone. However, none of such designs will fundamentally ease the desire on using mobile phones.
