#Smartphones
o Do you find that you fall into the habit of checking your phone while you are with other people? Or do you get insulted when other people do it to you?
o A new study says that there are three reasons why people can’t resist checking their phones while with others.
o The first reason is simply to check social media, email or a text conversation with another person.
o The second reason is to avoid conversation with another person. A person might whip out their phones to signal that they’re busy or pretend they have a call to answer.
o And lastly, smartphones are brought out to share content, whether it’s pictures, by taking a selfie or videos, maybe showing a funny TikTok you saw.
