Nowadays, there is a dramatic increase in the excessive use of mobile social networks such as Telegram, Instagram, etc. This is while enough attention has not been paid to the social impacts of the long term use of these social networks. These mobile social networks have quickly turned into a form of addiction among many teenagers and young people, and have exacerbated some social problems. Everyday life of the younger generation is tied to mobile social networks. For this reason, the present paper studies the relationship between the use of mobile social networks and the changing lifestyle of Iranian youth aged 15 to 29. To this end, utilizing the multi-stage cluster sampling method, a researcher-made questionnaire was distributed among 384 young people aged 15 to 29 years living in Tehran. The results revealed that there is a relationship between the amount of time spent on mobile social networks, and the components of lifestyle, such as how they are dressed, their eating habits, their make-up styles, their choices of decoration and home furnishings, their style of shopping, their leisure and leisure practices and their face to face interactions and communications. As the hours of using these networks increase, changes in each of the components of lifestyle also increase.
