Despite the meteoric increase in smartphone users and the problems associated with its excessive use, the latter has been the subject of a limited number of studies. This is a cross-sectional study; qualitative quantified, via an online survey. The assessment of addiction was only possible using the SAS/SAV measurement scale. 165 students were interviewed. 50% of the students had an addiction score of 32 or higher and 50% had a score of 32 or lower. The average addiction score was 33.10% with a variation in the level of addiction by age, as students between the ages of 18 and 25 are the most addicted. Duration of possession (0.097, [0.012; 0.775], p=0.28), sleep disorder (0.333, [0.175; 0.636], p=0.001), nervousness (0.366, [0.195 ; 0.689], p=0.002), daily use (3.246, [1.226; 8.596], p=0.018), and phantom sign (0.421, [0.214; 0.827], p=0.012) were associated with smartphone addiction in these students.The study revealed a female predominance of addiction due to the fact that women are communicative beings, who mostly use the smartphone to stimulate their social interactions and for entertainment.
