This document discusses addiction to cell phones and constant connectivity. It notes that while phones allow constant connection, overuse can lead to addiction with detrimental effects. Statistics show that many people fear being separated from their phone and some experience anxiety without it. This phenomenon is known as nomophobia, or the fear of being without a mobile device. Nomophobia can escalate into problems similar to drug and alcohol addictions, causing stress, anxiety and feelings of isolation when away from one's phone. As phone usage increases rapidly, cell phone addiction is expected to become an even larger problem in the future.

My Flip book's mentioned how bad can the addiction of smart phone harm or distract a person. I had used 10 pages light color for introducing how people using smart phones nowadays. And I dim the color down until it is a black and white pictures, because I just wanted to show that, the longer looking at the screen, the longer you can't see the color of the sky, the mountain, the water and the rainbow. At the end, i pull the color back up to light, happy color. Just wanted to send a message to those who are still addicting with their smartphones and not looking things around them, I really want them to try. The real world is amazing that our little small world in the phone can not even compare.
