My phone is in the kitchen safe most of the time as well. I've bought an Apple Watch recently and I was mightily afraid it would increase my phone addiction even more. Instead, it got way better and I keep my phone/watch in silent mode 99% of the time. Sudden notifications won't happen anymore and I definitely won't be starting to type out text messages on the watch or start browsing the internet. Important events, such as phone calls from 'favorite' contacts will still get through though and I still have the option to make phone calls in case of emergency.

I’m just curious to know can you make calls using Apple Watch

Yep! You can accept and make calls with an Apple Watch, even with the non-cellular version, as long as your phone is in bluetooth range. It even works without being connected to headphones, although I can't recommend that for long calls.

With the cellular version and the appropriate mobile contract you're not bound to the iPhone bluetooth range anymore.

Oh okay Well you just made it easier for me. I’ll definitely get an apple watch to stay connected with calls whenever I lock my phone in kitchensafe

Thanks

Well it depends honestly before going to bed I put my phone into kitchensafe box and set the time for atleast 2hrs so I can fall asleep without looking at my phone.

During the day if I’m working I’ll put my phone into kitchensafe for like 30 or 45mins so I can focus on the task without looking at my phone.

As far as calls are concerned if they are important they’ll probably leave voicemail and I’ll get back to them right away

Lastly I usually keep my phone locked at night before going to bed as It helps me stay away from it

I think if you are someone’s emergency contact than leaving your phone in a kitchen safe is irresponsible. My strategy for fighting phone addiction always allows me to hear and answer a phone call because it’s the defacto method of communication during emergencies.
