Do smartphones make us lazy?

Every day we get everything from our phone we rely on them all day every day. Want to know who wrote that song? Google it. What train to get. Look on your app. We wonder how people managed to cope without them, but to be fair how hard could it actually be? Instead of actually thinking about things or memorising numbers we rely on our smartphones for everything. New study from the University of Waterloo in Canada says that there is connection between reliance on smartphones and not thinking deeply about how to solve problems.

Other studies have found that people who have strong cognitive skills spend less time on their devices than those with less brain power and those who think analytically also use their phone less frequently because they remember things or are able to work problems out for themselves.
So get off your phones and maybe you’ll discover your true potential!
