Why I stopped Snapchat

This is not a joke : since May 2019, I totally stopped the Snapchat social network. Even if my account still exists, I don’t use it and I don’t have the application on my smartphone. Why did I do that ? Let’s explain.

The main reason why I stopped Snapchat is simple : the wasted time. I have an iPhone ; some people who have an iPhone know that we can see the time spent on his/her phone, with « Screen Time ». With this tool, you can see the time spent in general, per category, per application, etc. The finding is frightening. Snapchat was my most used application ; I spent many hours each day only on this social network !

Therefore, I stopped overnight. And my life has changed on many points. I spend much less time than before. Besides of this, I spend less time on social networks in general. Less notifications, less stress, less useless information. After reflexion, we can realize that we don’t care about a majority of snaps, informations, lifes. All these changements make me better in my head, my life, and carry me to stop others social networks. Maybe, the next will be Facebook, Instagram, … Who knows ?
