Since smartphones are used for a variety of purposes and are always linked to the Internet, they can have a notable impact on the person’s ability to fall asleep and have more difficulty staying asleep. The term smartphone addiction was introduced to describe the excessive and dysfunctional use of smartphones, evocative of behavioural addictions.The use of smartphones and accompanying apps has significantly improved communication, but it has also raised concerns about device dependence and overuse. Since smartphones are used for various purposes and are always connected to the Internet, they can significantly affect daily activities.
