Humans are adaptable. That's why it's an acute, rather than chronic problem: the "high" of engagement with social media is habituated and provides fewer endorphins the longer you use it. Most people, unless they're suffering an imbalance, eventually reach the point where the world around them provides more engagement than their phones and it ceases to be a problem.

But yes, there are paid apps to reclaim the life the rest of your apps are stealing. Wherever there is a need, there is an entrepreneur attempting to strike it rich.
