Online Nation is an annual report that looks at what people are doing online, how they are served by online content providers and platforms, and their attitudes to and experiences of using the internet. This edition provides the data of an unprecedented year, in which communication, entertainment, culture, retail, work and education have moved more towards the online format. According to the report, UK adults spent more time online on desktop, smartphones or tablets in 2020 than comparable European countries, more than three-and-a-half hours (217 minutes) online each day in 2020 – more than an hour longer than in Germany and France and 30 minutes more than Spain. UK online shopping sales and children’s online purchasing power is also growing, enabled by digital pocket money apps and pre-paid debit cards tailored for youngsters.
