There's no good reason to use your phone for any more than the bare minimum. Remove as many apps as possible. Treat it like a landline by just keeping in on a desk or something when you're at home.
At least use the browser for every service you can that wants you to use an app. Bonus points if the adblocker is enabled.
That's not the way I want to live. I want to enjoy technology and enjoy privacy, and since those aren't mutually exclusive, it's reasonable to expect both.
