I asked my mom if people use smart phones a lot in sacrament meeting. My memories of sm were off constantly being bored and seeking distraction. She was adamant that no one ever did such a thing.
When I went around Christmas time to church with my parents, there was a really nice program with music and nice Christmas talks. Still boring, but probably one of the least boring of the year.
I noticed at least 50% of adults were using smart phones for most of the time. They were fairly discreet and tried to hide the usage. I can see his you wouldn't notice unless you were looking for it. People with small kids seemed to not use them, the were to busy trying to keep their kids from misbehaving.
What have you noticed? I think it's a great thing. If I could have didn't every Sunday playing video games it might have been quite nice.
I want to hear if the church goers among us see a lot of smart phone usage too? Does 50% seem the same as your experience?
