A simple timer that would countdown before switching between modes would be helpful for aiding impulsive changes. For example, if the phone is in "work" mode and the user wants to quickly switch to being modeless to bypass some app restrictions, the user could configure a timer of 5 minutes that would start when the user tries to switch modes. The phone would then stay in "work" mode until the timer was up, then switch modes. This would minimize the temptation to quickly change modes to bypass app restrictions.
