If you’re out and about, EVERYONE knows if you keep your phone on loud . . . rather than vibrate or silent. Everyone. And yes, it can be a Boomer thing.
A new poll asked people if they typically keep their phone on loud . . . vibrate . . . or silent. 43% said they keep the sound ON . . . 27% said it’s usually on vibrate . . . and 25% said they keep it on silent. 3% said they “don’t know,” which is odd.
When you break that down by age, older people are FAR more likely to keep the sound on. 65% of those 65 and older keep the sound on . . . and that percentage goes down by age. Only 20% of 18- to 24-year-olds keep the sound on.
