Teens are spending more than one-third of their days using media such as online video or music — nearly 9 hours on average, according to a new study from the family technology education non-profit group, Common Sense Media.
For tweens, those between the ages of 8 and 12, the average is nearly six hours per day.

7. How much time do people spend on their phone?
A recent study by mobileinsurance.com has revealed that the average person spends 90 minutes a day on their phone.
That figure may not sound like a lot but that amounts to up to 23 days a year and 3.9 years of the average person's life is spent staring at their phone screen.
So what do we spend all that time doing?
