Abstract
Smartphones offer high portability and web availability simultaneously
which has prompted a considerable increment in the number of people
using social media progressing, particularly the 'Twenty to thirty-
year-olds'. The over utilization of smartphones and social media has
resulted in a few issues which include people's mental conditions. Our
proposed paper shows on how much time the users spend time on their
smartphones and social media, which seems to be increasing rapidly
everywhere and considered to be a social problem, arising from a lack of
offline social network that results in decreasing social engagements in
real-life. This paper includes a survey android application from which
user's survey data is analyzed, to look at the cause and effects of the
utilization of smartphones and social media.
