• Texting continues to cement its place as the central communications tool of teen social life – the frequency and overall volume of texts are both up since 2009.
  Voice calling on both mobile phones and (in some circumstances) on landlines is in decline.
• The heaviest texters are also the heaviest talkers. Teens who text the most are also the most likely to make calls, talk with people face to face outside of school, and use social network sites.
• One quarter of teens have a smartphone. The oldest teens (ages 16 and 17) are the most likely to report smartphone ownership. Otherwise, there are few demographic differences between smartphone and regular cell phone owners.
• Smartphone owners are more likely than regular phone owners to: use tablets to go online; use a location-based service on their cell phone, use social media sites, send and receive texts on a typical day.
• Only a small fraction of American teens use location-based services on their cell phones – 6% of teens 12-17 use the services to share their location.
