Smart phone stress： Are you a victim of "always on" cul?ture?

You're on holiday but secretly check your work e-mails the moment you wake up.

These are the typical signs of "always on" stress caused by smartphone addiction.

The app enables users to see how much time they're spending on the device and set up warnings if self-controlled usage limits are offended. 6 "Some time on your phone, some time off it, enjoying your loving family and friends around you."
