UK Internet Usage Trends and Impacts

People in the UK are using the internet more. In 2025, adults spent 4 hours and 30 minutes online every day. This is 31 minutes more than in 2021.

Some people think this is not good. They worry about how it affects mental health. But many still believe the internet is helpful.

Children also use the internet a lot. Some say it makes their brains feel tired. This is called 'brain rot'. But many children also use the internet to relax and feel better.
