This post looks like it may have been rewritten, run through a copy spinner, transcribed from a video, or translated. In this case it looks like you rewrote from a number of different sources without citing them.

Example from your post-
Your phone goes to the bathroom:
Excessive users often take their smartphone to the bathroom, which can result in taking a longer time to come out, because they’re consumed with the phone.

Source- If you are addicted to your phone, then chances are that you would take it everywhere with you, even to the bathroom.
If a person starts taking his/her phone to the bathroom, then he/she will normally take longer than usual to come out, since he/she will become all too consumed with the phone inside.

Example 2- Your article
Replying to messages even when you’re trying to de-stress:
If it’s not urgent don’t reply, just relax. For example, some people will respond to a message while getting a massage, this tends to degrade the experience. To unwind properly smartphones should be kept away.

Source- You HAVE to reply to messages even while you are getting a massage and trying to de-stress.Most people would be using their phone even when they are at a spa and trying to de-stress and melt away their worries for the day.
People get a massage for relaxation purposes, and phones are one of the primary stress causing machines.
Therefore, in order to unwind properly, it is essential that the phones are kept as far away as possible during the process.

I used a lot of references. More importantly I did not copy and paste, or put anything through a spinner. A lot of time was put into this post so seeing this comment is rather disappointing. In future I will cite the references.
