Where Is Yours? –
July 19, 2019 – Today, Americans view their smartphones an average of 52 times per day. Eighty-five percent of smartphone users will also check their device in the middle of conversations with friends or family. Dr. Murphy says one of the ways to cut down on becoming addicted to smartphone is to only program in use at specific times, along with balancing in a person’s wants with needs. “I want to know that I’m getting responses from my family friends or whatever,” Dr. Murphy says. “But I do it in a programmed way where I check ‘X’ number of times a day but no more.”
