Poll: Should you put your phone away while in company?

Most of us are guilty of browsing on our phones in company – should we cut it out?

CAFÉS IN THE US have started deliberately turning off their WiFi so that people are forced to actually talk to each other.

In Ireland, free WiFi in cafés is on the rise but people often complain about their friends or other halves being glued to their phones while they’re sitting down for a meal or having a coffee together.

We want to know what you think: Should you put away your phone while in company?
