Very much. But I try to remind myself watching motivational stuff that way I feel better. I can't live with my phone.
:D

Not really... the only real reason I have a phone is because my mother wants me to have one to communicate with her when she's at work. And that's pretty much the only time I ever pick up to use my phone.

Not like I go anywhere to really have a purpose for one. If I did, then I mostly would use it for communicating with my non-soulbond friends on Skype, taking random pictures of things I find out in public and play Pokémon Go. >_<

Obsessively, not for phone calls but for web browsing, Twitter, emails etc.

I find smartphones are fantastic for occupying myself in a pub or café. Before smartphones, I'd read newspapers (but not now that newspaper quality has declined (because smartphones etc. I suppose)).

I'll admit to using my phone a fair amount - especially during the boring hours of school days. Usually it's either browsing Facebook and/or Twitter or playing solitaire on it.

I don't really have a phone of my own, though sometimes I am given a basic one when I am going somewhere; I could get a smartphone I think but I don't see the need for one. I do have a tablet however that I use a lot, in fact I'm using it now.

I don't go on it too much, usually just to play apps, check emails and uni timetables away from home, and to make phone calls.

More than I want. But I also have books on it, and use it for music.

I'm currently without a functioning computer, so I use my smartphone for all the stuff I'd use a computer for right now, like accessing WP. I also have some games on it to play when I'm out and have to wait somewhere, and a text-to-speech app to use when I can't get my vocal cords to work properly (except my parents are extremely opposed to the idea, thinking I just don't want to speak, so I haven't actually used it). I used to be on my computer almost all the time I was home, so now I'm on my phone most of the time instead.

No but it's because I have a horrible phone. I've bought a new phone now and I'm sure I'll use it more often when I have it in my hands.

I mostly check email on it when I'm downstairs or out but I do text my girlfriend a lot when she's spending nights with family or I'm away visiting mine.

Yes. I use it very, very much. Pretty much all my waking hours I use it, except when I have to put it away (talking to people, having meals, volunteering)
