Most Millennials Attempt To Follow Common Standards of Smartphone Etiquette Just because someone is aware of the existence of common standards of smartphone etiquette, doesn’t mean they necessarily will attempt to comply with those standards. So Millennials--while a strong majority appear to be aware of common standards of smartphone etiquette--do they generally attempt to comply with them? We asked respondents whether they make an effort to put their smartphone away and not use it when generally in the presence of others. A strong majority--71.5%--said they do make such an effort.
