Relationships

Smartphone use at home such as during dinnertime or when watching television with the family is a frequent occurrence. It also occurs when couples or families are
socializing, eating or drinking in restaurants cafes and pubs.

The 2016 Deloitte 2016 mobile phone survey reported that 33% of all 18-24 year olds and 38% of all 25-34 year olds noted that their excessive smartphone use has caused disagreements with their partners.

We should strive to be aware of our use of smartphones can affect interpersonal relationships with our families and friends.
