description   Introduction: Smartphone addiction has become a pervasive issue, impacting various aspects of health and lifestyle. This study examines the relationship between smartphone addiction and exercise habits, focusing on psychological, physical, social, and neurobiological dimensions. By synthesizing existing evidence, it provides a comprehensive understanding of how excessive smartphone use influences physical activity levels and overall well-being. Methods: A systematic review following PRISMA principles was conducted. Eligibility criteria included peer-reviewed studies in English, examining smartphone addiction and exercise habits. Databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science, and PsycINFO were searched using relevant keywords. Included studies were randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, longitudinal studies, and cross-sectional studies. Data extraction emphasized impacts on exercise habits and associated health outcomes. Results: The review found significant correlations between excessive smartphone use and negative health outcomes. Smartphone addiction was linked to increased depression, anxiety, and stress, alongside decreased self-esteem. A negative correlation was observed between smartphone use and physical activity, with higher usage linked to reduced exercise habits. Physical discomfort and impaired performance from prolonged smartphone use were also reported. These findings were consistent across students, athletes, and adolescents. Conclusion: Targeted interventions are needed to mitigate smartphone addiction's adverse effects on mental and physical health. Educational programs, psychological support, and initiatives promoting physical activity are crucial. Future research should explore longitudinal studies and digital well-being tools to address smartphone addiction and foster healthier, more active communities.
