#people #phones #internet
With the advancement of modern technology, no longer is the computer the only place to use the internet, people now can use the net on their mobile phones
hence
, I agree the community are becoming overly dependant on smartphones.
Although
 the arrival of smartphones and other technological enhancements has been a boon to mankind, there are some drawbacks. Due to the increased dependency on mobile screens for various reasons, they get engrossed with the phones.For ,example it is widely known personal interaction has drastically gone down over the years preferring not to socialise with the existence of online networking platforms that enable folks not to have to talk to someone face-to-face. With the reliance on the internet, various transactions can be done in the comfort of the home
such
 as online shopping where they can make the purchase online and the item will get delivered to their doorstep while with its absence they need to go to the physical store.
Thus
 because of the lack of physical movement, they will lead an inactive lifestyle which can be interpreted as unhealthy.
Furthermore
, people are easily distracted from notifications on their mobiles which can decrease work productivity and efficiency.
Hence
, many companies prohibit the use of cell phones during work hours and are only allowed to do so on their breaks or in emergencies. In conclusion,
although
 the arrival of modern technological devices has benefited society tremendously, the negatives far outweigh the positives. And as it helps the public function better, it is going to stay for a while in
this
 fast-paced life, it can
also
 expose us to diseases due to an unhealthy and easy-going lifestyle.
