The effort to cut back on screen time is becoming a priority for many. Different generations take varied approaches to this challenge.
Screen-Time Struggles
Gen Z is taking notable steps to limit screen time; however, 28% find it challenging to reduce. Millennials face similar issues, influenced by work demands and constant connectivity. Gen X and Baby Boomers find more comfort in their digital habits due to lesser integration of technology in their daily lives.
The Smartphone Struggle
Smartphones top the list of devices hard to reduce usage for all generations due to their omnipresence and multipurpose use. Devices like TVs and laptops also present challenges but serve more specific functions such as work or entertainment.
Where Digital Minimalism Comes In
Digital minimalism advocates a mindful approach to technology. Setting specific times to check devices, using apps to track screen time, and creating tech-free zones help reduce stress and improve well-being.
Digital minimalism helps generations navigate challenges of constant connectivity, improving mental health and personal welfare.
