Apps today are driving the majority of media consumption activity, the report claims, now accounting for 7 our of every 8 minutes of media consumption on mobile devices.

To evaluate the relationship between media consumption habits, physical activity, socioeconomic status, and glycemic control in youths with type 1 diabetes.
In the cross-sectional study, self-report questionnaires were used to assess media consumption habits, physical activity, and socioeconomic status in 296 children, adolescents, and young adults with type 1 diabetes.
Hence, the aim of this study was to examine the impact of media consumption habits, physical activity, and socioeconomic status on glycemic control in youths with type 1 diabetes.
However, in our study we did not find any associations between media consumption time and physical activity or BMI.
We analyzed the impact of sex, age, BMI-SDS, diabetes duration, insulin pump use, socioeconomic status, physical activity, media consumption time, and seasonality on HbA1c.
Neither physical activity nor media consumption time was associated significantly with BMI-SDS (P = 0.15 and P = 0.21).
