Is it possible? Absolutely yes it is possible. I work on Heat exchanger systems that do exactly what you are describing.

Problem is, it is not economically viable. (For the minor convenience of controlling the flow to your coffee machine, you would be adding so much additional cost to the machine. Additionally, you would be adding alot of additional parts which could break and cause increased repair costs. Its just not worth it)

My systems i work on are for defense use. (Keeping radar systems cool so electronics dont overheat) in those cases it totally makes sense to spend thousands of dollars installing and maintaining pressurized systems that react to (temp, pressure and flow rate, and increase or decrease rpm's based on the additional cooling or pressure needs of your system during certain modes of operation. - ie if you are in southern california its much warmer than alaska. If you are operating at high power there is much more heat dissipated than in standby or low power, etc etc)

In the case of a coffee machine - you would be creating a machine that costs $800-1000 plus upkeep costs, and most folks would never want to pay that for some specialized coffee production.

>Are there any phones that can do this?

Yes. The perfect phone to do this would be the one you are holding in your hand to read this post!

It is not about spending more money to get a different device.

This is on you friend. If you want it, all you have to do is either quit clicking on the app or delete the app. Its not that hard. But your self control must come from your self.

If you buy some cheap very limited phone you will not fix anything. You will probably just be unhappy for a week and then go back to your current phone.

When you say you are soending too much on in.app purchases.....it would be a worse decision to spend more on a new phone right?

I did something similar at the movie theater last weekend. During dinner on a date with a girl, i told her i wanted to go to the movies. We went to the movie theater and told the girl at the counter give us the next movie starting soon no matter what genre or what movie. Doesnt matter....we'll take it. Boom. We went to the crappiest movie ever. But i got some good make out time so it worked out. 😜
