For many of us in the US, it’s the beginning of a holiday weekend.
So we figured we’d try and help you out.
We grabbed a bunch of Verge staffers, and asked them all a simple question: How do you disconnect?
We have ideas about Wi-Fi, about phone hygiene, about smartwatches, and much more.
We’re certainly not here to tell you to ditch screens entirely, but... screen responsibly, you know?
Send us your tips, and have a great summer vacation!
