Nomophobia is on the increase as more people use cellphones. Several research conducted in India on young adults have shown that they suffer from nomophobia. In India, the seriousness of nomophobia and associated behaviors is frequently underestimated and unrecognized. There were a total of 250 participants, who were further broken down into three categories: students, working professionals, and retirees. Each respondent's unique psychological struggles with Nomophobia should be expressed accurately in the questions. According to the above poll it is obvious that 99.2% individuals are Nomophobic; yet in comparison to students and working people the condition of Nomophobia is lesser among the retired ones, but there too the conditions are bad. There will likely be a significant impact from mobile phones in the near future.
