The World Has Screen Addictions


How many hours would you say you spend in front of screens each day?

The Daily Mail reports data from a recent survey of 16-to-44-year-olds finds that worldwide, people spend an average of just under seven hours a day staring at TV screens and PC monitors.

Of the 30 countries surveyed, those in Indonesia logged the most screen time with an average of nine hours a day. Those in Italy spent the least average amount of time in front of screens with just over five hours a day, and Americans fell somewhere in the middle, logging an average of about seven hours a day.
  • The graph was presented at the recent Code Conference in California 
  • It plots the amount of screen time in 30 nations around the world
  • This includes time spent in front of phones, tablets, laptops, PCs, and TVs
  • Indonesians topped the chart spending 9 hours a day looking at displays
  • At the other end of the scale, Italians spend just 5 hours 17 minutes
  • Britons watch the most TV, while Chinese residents use laptops the most
  • Nigerians spend the most time looking at their smartphones, and tablets are most popular in the Philippines
