But what does it mean?

It simply means any time that you are looking at a screen. So it could be when you are on your phone talking to your friends. Or it could be watching a video on your tablet. Or you could be gaming on a console, or trying to find something to watch on Netflix.

That’s it.

Just make sure that you do other things away from your screen as well, such as exercise, eating healthily, and of course, catching up with your friends.
