Abstract
In this study we aimed to investigate the impact of using smartphones on the academic performance of undergraduate students at the Kumaun University Nainital. To know the impact, this study used the quantitative research approach to gather data from 450 undergraduate students using google form questionnaires. It had been found that the majority of undergraduate students are using their smartphones to interact with fellow students and lecturers. It had been also found that using smartphones distracts students’ academic lives in certain aspects. The results also indicate the impact of using smartphones on students’ academic capabilities and progress.
