And the majority of those times is to simply check Facebook, Twitter, email, etc. So if we delete these apps, then we're less likely to mindlessly check our phone. Now the third thing you can do to help with social media usage is to have a disconnect time. So what I mean by this is have time during the day when you completely disconnect and I recommend to disconnect times during Ramadan, which is from the moment you wake up for suhoor to sunrise and from the moment you come back from
