The study from UK supermarket Asda shows that 18 per cent of phone owners use their phone while on the toilet, generating the trend known as 'throne calls', which dips slightly to 11 per cent for women.
Meanwhile, one per cent of gentlemen use the tech during 'intimate moments'.
In all, 98 per cent of Brits own a mobile phone, with one in 50 users checking their phone at least every five minutes per day, equivalent to a staggering 73,000 phone moments each year.
This is largely dominated by teens, with 60 per cent checking their phones every 15 minutes, compared to 48 per cent of over 60s that only use their phone when it rings.
41 per cent use the devices in queues and waiting rooms the most, while second-screen use is demonstrated as 37 per cent do so when watching films and TV at home.
