Do you spent much time on your mobile phone?

[Jeannette]

I try not to, but it's so easy to scroll through my insta and facebook. Check my e-mail, the news, whats app and so on.
When I need clothes I search the internet or scroll through Vinted or a Dutch version called Marktplaats.
Looking up information for my garden, watching interesting video's on You Tube.
The other week I found out you can see on your phone how much time you have spent doing stuff on your phone. Turns out I spent 2 - 4 hours per day on my phone. Some Saturday's it was almost 6 hours.
I was shocked, all that time I could have spent reading or doing other stuff. I don't mind following the news so much, but social media and games??
I need to cut down my phone time drasticly!!

What about you?

I spend a lot of time on mine. Most of mine is through text messages. I won't even tell you how many of those I get a day. LOL My whole family are texters - most of them work at home, but they're still working and don't have time to talk, so we text a lot. Instagram takes up a lot of my "phone time" because you can basically only post from your phone. I have a lot of CT layouts to post on there - and a few personal things, too. LOL I just looked and I'm at 3 hours and 16 minutes already! HOW did that happen?????

At least our phones keep track of our time, now - I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

I hope you can text with two fingers at the same time. I can't, I make too many typos when I try. I text with only my forefinger. Takes forever to make a text .

I spend the least amount of time on my phone in my household, but we are all addicted to that darned pocket devil.

Unfortunately yes. And sometimes I wonder how I got along before there were smartphones

@Cherylndesigns / Cheryl ... why you don't use desktop for instagram? I use it for my posting from my pc.

I spend TONS of time on my phone, but not really scrolling... I do my emails, grocery shopping, work scheduling, communication related to school/delivery/household/work/payments and transfers... I search for recipes, plan weekend trips... my whole life is on my phone...
