For a quick summary, see the information below:
ReportLinker conducted a survey to answer three questions:
• What does a typical day of smartphone use looks like?
• What do Americans use their smartphones for?
• And how millennials interact with their device?
Results show that:
• 46 percent of Americans say they check their smartphones as soon as they wake up
• Among millennials, 66 percent say it’s the first thing they do before getting out of bed
When they first open their smartphones, connecting with friends and relatives is the top priority:
• More than 30 percent first open their emails
• When 30 percent open social media apps first, among which Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn are the most popular
Also, 43 percent of owners say they upgrade to a newer model every year, while most don’t keep their phones longer than two years.
What does this mean for emergency managers? How about, "Social media is important for connecting to their constituents." The other thought I had was that maybe you should be programming your Tweets and Facebook posts to come out at say, 4:00 a.m., so that those who do check their social media sites — before they get out of bed — might see what you have to say first.
