Behaviour analyst identifies the 10 types of mobile user – including the Textrovert and Monologger

The average adult who uses a phone spends 95 minutes on it per day – the equivalent to two days per month – with only 23 per cent keeping track of their screen time.

Research of 2,000 adults found browsing the internet, sending emails and messaging family and friends are the top three things people do the most.

Almost half (49 per cent) have been guilty of messaging someone in the room next to them for reasons including not wanting to interrupt the show they’re watching and simply not being bothered to leave the sofa.

And 43 per cent admit they often fall down a ‘scrolling rabbit hole’, finding it impossible to stop.

While 34 per cent are guilty of scrolling on their phone in the company of their partner, and 27 per cent often do this while watching TV – with one in 10 admitting they ‘second screen’ all the time.

The research, commissioned by Three UK to mark its third-year partnership with Gogglebox, revealed the nation’s top 10 mobile phone habits.

Behavioural analyst, Emma Kenny, has delved into the different personalities to reveal what your phone personalities say about you – from the ‘textrovert’ who avoids making calls at all costs to the ‘monologger’ who lives for voice notes.

Those who love to scroll find a great joy in listening to others’ different perspectives, while people who talk on loudspeaker hate the idea of being restricted and are known for being positive risk takers.
