Technology should make life better, not leave us tired, anxious or disconnected. Digital wellbeing means using phones and screens in a way that supports your health, sleep, relationships and learning.
Endless scrolling, late-night phone use and constant comparison with others online can affect sleep, concentration, mood and self-esteem. Many apps are designed to keep us using them for as long as possible.
The World Health Organization advises no sedentary screen time for children under two, and no more than one hour a day for children aged two to four. For older children and adults, what matters most is balance: enough sleep, physical activity, time with family and friends, and screen use that adds value.
