In its sixth year, the study finds Snapchat is maintaining its popularity, with almost half of kids aged 7-17 (48%) having used it in the past month and 80% of users doing so on a daily basis.

Video games also remain a staple for most kids, with four in five (79%) having played one in the past month.
