​​☕️Starbucks’s mobile payments system is so popular than Apple’s or Google’s in🇺🇸 By the end of this year, a quarter of U.S. smartphone users — 55 million people — over the age of 14 will make an in-store mobile payment. More than 40 percent of those people will have done so through Starbucks’s mobile payments app, according to new data from research firm eMarketer.

​​🏥How heavy use of social media is linked to mental illness May 20th marked the end of “#MentalHealth awareness week”, a campaign run by the Mental Health Foundation, a British charity. Roughly a quarter of British adults have been diagnosed at some point with a psychiatric disorder, costing the economy an estimated 4.5% of GDP per year. Such illnesses have many causes, but a growing body of research demonstrates that in young people they are linked with heavy consumption of #SocialMedia. A survey by the Royal Society for Public #Health found that Britons aged 14-24 believe #Facebook, #Instagram, #Snapchat and #Twitter have detrimental effects on their wellbeing. They said that these social networks gave them scope for self-expression and community-building, but exacerbated anxiety and #depression. 🚀@PerspectiveIX 🔗prs.pctvix.co/2ISIKvh
