How Much Of Your Life Has Been Lost to Social Media?
Social media is designed to feel quick. A few minutes here, a quick scroll there, one more video before you close the app. But those small moments add up faster than most people realise.
Our Time Wasted on Social Media Calculator estimates how much time you may have already spent scrolling through feeds, watching short videos, liking posts, and falling into the endless loop of recommended content. Simply enter your age and the average number of minutes you spend on social media each day, and the calculator will estimate how many hours, days, and even years of your life have gone into the scroll.
The results are not meant to shame you. Almost everyone spends time on social media now. The point is simply to reveal how quickly daily habits stack up over time. What feels like a harmless ten or twenty minutes a day can quietly become hundreds of hours over the years.
You might discover that your scrolling time is fairly modest. Or you might realise you have effectively taken on a part time job as an unpaid content consumer.
Either way, the numbers can be surprisingly eye opening.
Enter your details above and find out just how much of your life has already disappeared into the endless scroll.
