Text in Talk: Lightweight Messages in Co-Present Interaction
summary
A corpus of 170 hours of video from 15 iPhone users (seven days each) captures screen activity plus ambient audio and shows that over 40% of activity was communication while only 5% involved phone calls. Texts get used as verifiable reported speech, become topical resources when read aloud, and are often composed collaboratively with others typing or coaching on the device. Design takeaways include bookmarks, automated summaries and richer metadata to support reuse of persistent messages in face‑to‑face interaction.
