Recently, entrepreneur Max Thompson shared a snapshot of his 14-year-old daughter’s iPhone home screen on social media. The first thing that catches the eye is her colorful app arrangement, a method that resonates with any aesthetically inclined parent who enjoys color-coding their belongings. However, what stands out even more is that she has concealed the phone app, opting to prioritize Instagram, messaging, and music on her main screen instead.
For anyone familiar with today’s teens, lengthy phone conversations are becoming increasingly rare. However, that doesn’t imply they aren’t engaged in communication; in fact, they are in constant contact, primarily through texting and social media platforms. Notably, Facebook and Twitter don’t appear on Thompson’s daughter’s home screen either.
While it’s impossible to remove the phone app entirely, it’s likely that she has stashed it away in a folder of green apps. If an emergency arises, she has the option to retrieve it and dial 911. Yet, in a pinch, she might find it quicker to send a text to her dad.
