Why Are People 'Going Analog' in 2026?

As the clock struck midnight and ushered in 2026, people around the globe made resolutions to spend less time on their phones and more time fostering connections offline, from joining new clubs to taking up hobbies that mean less screen time and more face time.

An individual born in 2025 is projected to spend 21 years of their life, equivalent to over 181,000 hours, looking at a screen, according to a new Eyesafe report.

That figure comprises a quarter of a person's life and more than 40% of their waking hours, the report noted.

The idea of "going analog" and intentionally reducing one's reliance on digital devices forces people to slow down, learn a new trade, pick up a new skill or rediscover their creativity.

Pitched as “analog lifestyles,” it's different than a short-term digital detox. Instead, it’s an effort to slow down and find tangible ways to complete daily tasks and find entertainment, especially as generative AI platforms increasingly do the thinking and doing for us.

There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to reducing or creating a boundary with your digital life. But as it happens, sometimes suggestions on how to go about it have to be spread online.

Influencers are posting about their “analog bag,” a canvas bag filled with craft supplies or purchasing a refurbished iPod to participate in this trend.

The trend forms part of a wider backlash against a culture of doomscrolling and the pressure to always be online.

Bob Hutchins, CEO at Human Voice Media, a technology services consultancy in Nashville, Tenn. told Quartz, the most significant thing with digital disruption is the reclaiming of human attention. “People are turning off notifications not to hide, but to concentrate,” he added. “People are deciding to be unresponsive digitally, in order to be fully present physically.”
