According to a report by mobile analytics and advertising firm Flurry, Americans spend around 10 minutes more per day on mobile devices than watching television.

Flurry's report said that Americans spend two hours and forty-eight minutes watching TV while they spend two hours and fifty-seven minutes on mobile devices.

According to PCWorld, Flurry's latest report was inspired by a partner at venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz Benedict Evans' recent presentation.

A leading global information and measurement company Nielsen issued a cross platform report that said that American adults spent an average of four hours and thirty-six minutes watching live TV (on a television set) every day between April and June.
