We spent a lot of time on our smartphones in early 2023, much more than last year at the same time. This is the conclusion of a survey that shows us that we have more and more heads in our mobiles.
Whether they are on iPhone or Android, whose Play Store houses two apps that steal your data for China, smartphone users are numerous in the world. Becoming true assistants, phones are omnipresent in our daily lives and our eyes are glued to them. According to a study by Data.ai, consumers around the world spent 2500 billion hours on their smartphones in the first half of 2023.
Billions of hours on our smartphones in the first half of 2023
This is a conclusion drawn from a study by Data.ai. In the first half of 2023, users spent more than 2500 billion hours on their smartphones. An increase of 4% compared to last year over the same period.
India, an emerging market where telephony is very popular, shows a growth of 26%. China follows with 13% more. In Europe, it is the opposite effect since France shows a decrease of 3%, as does Italy. Germany recorded a small decrease of 1%.
Around 5000 billion hours at the end of 2023?
If smartphones are popular and used as much, it is necessarily thanks to the applications even if the caution is to face certain online threats. Some apps contribute to the popularity of mobiles with a rebound in their use between 2022 and 2023. Data.ai notably mentions those with integrated purchases like TikTok, Disney+, Tinder or Deezer.
And it’s not going to stop there because according to Data.ai, the time spent on our smartphones at the end of 2023 will be 5000 billion hours. Gloups!
The advent of telephony shows that the time spent on our smartphones continues to increase. Fortunately, there are tools to limit or track consumption. For example, on iOS, you can have a weekly summary of your screen time. A rather convenient option.
