Older adults have become much more involved with technology, and are only continuing to do so.
That’s according to a new technology trends report from AARP. In the survey, researchers queried more than 3,000 respondents.
According to the findings, texting is the primary form of communication for adults aged 50 and up, and the average number of devices they have has nearly doubled in less than a decade, increasing from four in 2016 to seven in 2025.
Almost all of the surveyed older adults, 99%, own at least one technology device. Almost all, 90%, said they have a smartphone, while more than three-quarters said they have a smart TV and another 70% reporting they have a laptop.
