Indonesian young adults are particularly vulnerable to be addicted to social media because Indonesian young adults use the most social media compared to other age groups and they have an average social media usage duration that exceeds the recommended usage. Apple, Android, and third-party developers have provided applications that is marketed to help users to limit and control their social media usage to overcome social media addiction. However, those applications are proven to be ineffective to limit and control social media usage due to the lack of restriction or due to the nature of the application itself.
