What’s your screen time looking like lately?

I’m so fed up with phones. I feel the constant need to be on mine. Although I’m not actively on my phone I’m always listening to something. My husband actually is constantly on his. Every free second he has he is scrolling or reading or watching something. I’m so sick of this. I can’t deal with it anymore.

Im always on my phone but my husband is neverrrr on it. Sumtimes I give him my phone so I can b screen free💆🏻‍♀️

I think I’m not on mine a lot but then my screen time report comes in and it says I’m on it at least 8 hours a day. I’m like, hoooow. But it’s everything. Every doctors appointment, every time I need to check a calendar, meal planning, grocery shopping, checking emails, checking business hours, turning music on, and all of that comes before any past times like reading or watching a show. I hate it.

Way too much. I hate it so much. It takes so much out of us.

Around 4 hours daily which is too much. But I’m on maternity leave. When I go back to work I don’t have time for that. When I feel like I’ve been on my phone too much or just don’t want to be on it, I leave it in another room and forget about it altogether.

I think i have a screen time issue. I need to get away from my phone

I feel like this too. I keep thinking if I bought myself a watch and a camera maybe I would be on my phone less. I want to leave my phone in the other room but then my kid does something cute and I have to sprint to grab it to take a photo.

@Hallie the camera idea is actually pretty genius.

Probably less than an hour? I don’t use the screen time thingy that tells you how much. But between taking care of my son, working fulltime, and everything else life requires, I just don’t have time for my phone.

@Hallie i have an apple watch and my husband and i both have film cameras and other cameras on display in the house so we use those :) it really does help

Glad I’m not the only one… I find myself on my phone so often now… my daughter is at that age where she’s starting to play independently so I just sit and before I know it an hour has passed and I’m still on my phone! I’m thinking of trying to go phone free for a while. I need a purge!

All the time. But I use the kindle app the most so I’m reading for at least half the time I’m on my phone.

My screen time is ridiculous, it's definitely an addiction for me 🤦🏻‍♀️

Getting/ doing hobbies that bring me joy and reading books I like have helped with screen-time. My husband and I also set some expectations of not being on our phone by our baby, when eating, hanging out, or visiting friends. Sometimes I regress, but then I re-establish those boundaries with myself. Setting timers also helps❤️

@MJ_xo I need to do that. I kinda want to get a flip phone but I’m always taking pictures with my phone.

@Hallie I kinda want to get a flip phone and a camera. Maybe a clock on the wall and a smart watch with just my calendar. Idk it’s just getting in the way of being a present parent these days.
