The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted a digital wellbeing dilemma. On the one hand, digital technologies are essential for social connection, work, learning, creativity, entertainment, etc. At the same time, digital technologies are the source of many wellbeing challenges, ranging from distracting notifications to misinformation, to gaming addiction. We aim to address this dilemma by investigating how people balance technologies in their lives, and how we can design new technologies that help them to reach their full potential.
