    Default screentime. how addicted are you?

    Since you have all been so serious over the last few days. Worried about guards, getting into buildings, etc... lets see how much time you have been sitting looking at your phones winding up each other 🤣🤣

    We use to do this at work towards the end of the day to see who was off doing nothing all day.

    Im totally addicted, practically glued to my hand. No idea why, i see the same stuff 10 times a day. Yet, i still scroll, i still refresh. I need some new hobbies haha

    I average 4 hours a day.

    You should find it under battery settings on android. Not sure on ios.
    Should show screen on time or similar. Can also see how much each app used if you want to get specific.

    The mods decided I had a problem and stamped "certified E-I addict" on my profile...I was all "jeeze relax".

    I used to be flat out Googling travel stuff... another passion of mine, but these days I don't bother til a week before I go.

    I think I'm going for a few pints tonight and I'll be busy in the morning SO I'LL TRY TO PUT THE FUCKING PHONE DOWN!!!

    No in all seriousness I want to stop posting as much, but I'm often working alone and I have to drive about a bit so I think "I wonder what the lads/lasses are up to?"

    Screens, gadgets and all these social media apps have destroyed peoples social skills, they'd rather post what they had for dinner than meeting for a catch up........

    Stay old school , the sex is much better

    Yep, I had to start using the in-built Digital Balance app on my Android phone about 6 months ago to limit how much I use certain apps, Instagram and Reddit being the two biggest culprits. Took a look at the total weekly hours one evening and had a bit of a shock. I caught myself so many times scrolling down through those apps, closing them when I was finished, and then immediately opening them again out of pure reflex. Mental. Knew it was time to cut it out then.

    I put a 20 minute limit on each now. Frees up literally an entire day of free time each week. Highly recommend it. And what I find too is that I subconsciously think "I have limited app time" when I open other apps that I haven't added to the Digital Balance restrictions, so I'm less inclined to spend excessive time on them.
