About This Data

Modeled after DataReportal and GWI global social media engagement statistics for 2025.

Note: Values represent average daily minutes per user across global markets. Users often have accounts on multiple platforms, so this reflects time allocation rather than exclusive usage.

Key Insights from This Data

TikTok Leads in Daily Engagement

At 58 minutes per day, TikTok captures the most daily attention, driven by its short-form video algorithm that keeps users scrolling through highly personalized content feeds.

YouTube Remains a Close Second

YouTube's 48 minutes of daily usage reflects its dominance in long-form video content, tutorials, and music streaming, serving a broader range of content needs than short-form platforms.

Meta Platforms Combined Still Dominate Total Time

Instagram (33 min) and Facebook (31 min) together account for 64 minutes — more than any single platform — showing Meta's continued hold on user attention across demographics.

Best Practices for This Chart Type
  • Use each platform's official brand color for immediate recognition and visual authenticity.
  • Include minutes or hours alongside percentages since time is a more tangible metric for this data.
  • Note that this shows time distribution, not market share by users, to prevent misinterpretation.
  • Ensure small slices like 'Snapchat' and 'Other' have readable labels with leader lines if needed.
  • Add a year label to the title since social media usage shifts rapidly year over year.
  • Consider a donut chart with total daily time in the center for additional context.
