Avoid screenshots to protect your memory
A study from Binghamton University in the United States reveals that relying on screenshots and photography to retain information may weaken memory rather than strengthen it. The study showed that capturing images and repeatedly doing so without subsequent review can lead to distraction and reduce a person's ability to remember experiences, especially if they do not revisit the content afterward. Surprisingly, the phone holds around 2,000 photos, yet the user takes about 20 pictures daily, and the impact of images on memory persists even when they are informed that the photos will be deleted. The researcher emphasizes that the best way to remember information is by using pen and paper rather than depending on digital images.
