Ilka Heinemann is the owner of a somewhat outdated smartphone and can't resist the urge to tap its screen during rare free moments. She works as an editor at a publishing house and has a passion for books in her private life too. She couldn't help noticing that in situations when people used to read books or simply let their minds wander, they are now playing around with their phones. While travelling on the tube, surrounded by smartphone maniacs, the idea came to her for this book.

Have you ever found yourself mindlessly checking your phone for updates, or playing some pointless game? In fact, do you ever do anything else, when on the bus or on the train, than sit glued to the screen? Research shows that the average person spends 23 days a year wasting time on their mobile phone. That's four years of your life! In 101 Things to Do Instead of Playing on Your Phone , Ilka Heinemann has devised an imaginative list of alternative activities to cure us of our portable tech addiction. These are more than mere time-killers - they are ways to unleash your creative side, to learn facts or train your brain; some will even set you on the road to happiness and mindfulness.
