Conclusion

Through a typical day in my digital life I use my devices for recreational purposes quite frequently. This blog shows a typical day at uni for me, after looking at this I can reflect and say I spend a massive amount of time on my devices each day.

Below I have put my screen time, please note that I cannot include my pc or macbook screentime as they do not have inbuilt trackers, however, as an estimate I would guess that on a typical day at uni I spend 5-6 hours on my mac and 2-3 hours on my pc


An average of five hours of screentime is a massive amount, when you add up my daily hours it averages out across all devices to 15-16 hours. This is obviously an unreasonable amount and is not super healthy.
