First lets alarm you:

• Globally people average 6 hours 58 minutes of screen time per day.
• Almost half (49%) of 0 to 2-year-olds interact with smartphones.
• Gen-Z averages around 9 hours of ****screen time per day.

This is to be expected, since engagement time == advertising profit. And since a company operates by optimising for profit means developing phycological tricks to keep you on your device! While Apple have tried to help out on this by adding screen-time limits, once the limit is reach the user just bypasses their lock and continues use.

In a sense, these psychological tricks bypass our brains firewall - so no alarms are raised and it actually feels good to scroll. It would be especially difficult to use “will power” to fight this off, especially once these behaviours have become a habit.

Solution- We need some anti-tech tech!
