A new report from ComReg has shown that mobile phones are now being used for social media and video streaming more often than calls or texts.

According to the Mobile Consumer Experience Survey, people are spending 46 minutes a day using social media on their phones, and just 30 minutes making or receiving calls. They are also sending an average of 11 texts a day compared to almost 30 messages via the likes of WhatsApp, Messenger or Snapchat.

Andy O'Donoghue joined us for Tech Tuesday to discuss these findings.
