Globally the average user spends 52 minutes on TikTok every day. About 90% of their worldwide users access TikTok on a daily basis.

The average adult TikTok user in America spends 33 minutes per day on the app.

These TikTok user statistics tell the whole story of the new social media giant and give you some insights into the app's future.

Context

This dataset explores the relationship between digital behavior and mental well-being among 100,000 individuals. It records how much time people spend on screens, use of social media (including TikTok), and how these habits may influence their sleep, stress, and mood levels.

It includes six numerical features, all clean and ready for analysis, making it ideal for machine learning tasks like regression or classification. The data enables researchers and analysts to investigate how modern digital lifestyles may impact mental health indicators in measurable ways.

Dataset Applications

• Quantify how screen‑time, TikTok use, or multi‑platform engagement statistically relate to stress, sleep loss, and mood.
• Train regression or classification models that forecast stress level or mood score from real‑time digital‑usage metrics.
• Feed user‑specific data into recommender systems that suggest screen‑time caps or bedtime routines to improve mental health.
• Provide evidence for guidelines on youth screen‑time limits and platform moderation based on observed stress‑sleep trade‑offs.
• Serve as a teaching dataset for EDA, feature engineering, and model evaluation in data‑science or psychology curricula.
• Evaluate app interventions (e.g., screen‑time nudges) by comparing predicted versus actual post‑intervention stress or mood shifts.
• Cluster individuals into digital‑behavior personas (e.g., “heavy late‑night scrollers”) to tailor mental‑health resources.
• Generate synthetic time‑series scenarios (what‑if reductions in TikTok hours) to estimate downstream impacts on sleep and stress.
• Use engineered features (ratio of TikTok hours to total screen‑time, etc.) in broader wellbeing models that include diet or exercise data.
• Assess whether mental‑health prediction models remain accurate and unbiased across different screen‑time or platform‑use segments. # Column Descriptions
• screen_time_hours – Daily total screen usage in hours across all devices.
• social_media_platforms_used – Number of different social media platforms used per day.
• hours_on_TikTok – Time spent on TikTok daily, in hours.
• sleep_hours – Average number of sleep hours per night.
• stress_level – Stress intensity reported on a scale from 1 (low) to 10 (high).
• mood_score – Self-rated mood on a scale from 2 (poor) to 10 (excell # Inspiration This dataset was inspired by growing concerns about how screen time and social media affect mental health. It enables analysis of the links between digital habits, stress, sleep, and mood—encouraging data-driven solutions for healthier online behavior and emotional well-being. # Ethically Mined Data: This dataset has been ethically mined and synthetically generated without collecting any personally identifiable information. All values are artificial but statistically realistic, allowing safe use in academic, research, and public health projects while fully respecting user privacy and data ethics.

TikTok has 136 million monthly active users in the US alone.

There are currently over 1.5 billion active users on TikTok worldwide.

Launched in 2016, TikTok rose to be one of the most popular social app and video platform for global users. In 2021, TikTok had approximately 656 million global users. This figure was projected to increase by around 15 percent year-over-year, reaching 755 million users in 2022. TikTok global installs peaked at the end of 2019, with the app amassing over 318 million downloads. During 2020 and 2021, TikTok download trends experienced a slower growth, amassing 173 million downloads from users worldwide during the last quarter of 2021.

Teenagers make up the largest group of active users on TikTok.

As of January 2024, Instagram was slightly more popular with men than women, with men accounting for 50.6 percent of the platform’s global users. Additionally, the social media app was most popular amongst younger audiences, with almost 32 percent of users aged between 18 and 24 years.

              Instagram’s Global Audience

              As of January 2024, Instagram was the fourth most popular social media platform globally, reaching two billion monthly active users (MAU). This number is projected to keep growing with no signs of slowing down, which is not a surprise as the global online social penetration rate across all regions is constantly increasing.
              As of January 2024, the country with the largest Instagram audience was India with 362.9 million users, followed by the United States with 169.7 million users.

              Who is winning over the generations?

              Even though Instagram’s audience is almost twice the size of TikTok’s on a global scale, TikTok has shown itself to be a fierce competitor, particularly amongst younger audiences. TikTok was the most downloaded mobile app globally in 2022, generating 672 million downloads. As of 2022, Generation Z in the United States spent more time on TikTok than on Instagram monthly.

Regional TikTok user statistics differentiate significantly. Each major region has also experienced growth a different times.

As of April 2024, around 16.5 percent of global active Instagram users were men between the ages of 18 and 24 years. More than half of the global Instagram population worldwide was aged 34 years or younger.

              Teens and social media

              As one of the biggest social networks worldwide, Instagram is especially popular with teenagers. As of fall 2020, the photo-sharing app ranked third in terms of preferred social network among teenagers in the United States, second to Snapchat and TikTok. Instagram was one of the most influential advertising channels among female Gen Z users when making purchasing decisions. Teens report feeling more confident, popular, and better about themselves when using social media, and less lonely, depressed and anxious.
              Social media can have negative effects on teens, which is also much more pronounced on those with low emotional well-being. It was found that 35 percent of teenagers with low social-emotional well-being reported to have experienced cyber bullying when using social media, while in comparison only five percent of teenagers with high social-emotional well-being stated the same. As such, social media can have a big impact on already fragile states of mind.

In 2020, TikTok brought in $33.4 billion in revenue.

Cristiano Ronaldo has one of the most popular Instagram accounts as of April 2024.

              The Portuguese footballer is the most-followed person on the photo sharing app platform with 628 million followers. Instagram's own account was ranked first with roughly 672 million followers.

              How popular is Instagram?

              Instagram is a photo-sharing social networking service that enables users to take pictures and edit them with filters. The platform allows users to post and share their images online and directly with their friends and followers on the social network. The cross-platform app reached one billion monthly active users in mid-2018. In 2020, there were over 114 million Instagram users in the United States and experts project this figure to surpass 127 million users in 2023.

              Who uses Instagram?

              Instagram audiences are predominantly young – recent data states that almost 60 percent of U.S. Instagram users are aged 34 years or younger. Fall 2020 data reveals that Instagram is also one of the most popular social media for teens and one of the social networks with the biggest reach among teens in the United States.

              Celebrity influencers on Instagram
              Many celebrities and athletes are brand spokespeople and generate additional income with social media advertising and sponsored content. Unsurprisingly, Ronaldo ranked first again, as the average media value of one of his Instagram posts was 985,441 U.S. dollars.

TikTok has a significantly larger female user base globally.
