No twitter? I don't tweet but I subscribe to news/sports/finance people I like. So, it's a news source for me.

Curious to know what other people mainly use their phone for?

I mainly use it for,

1. Calls, texting and photos. I rarely and I mean rarely use it for listening to music.
2. Watching videos (maybe 2 or 3 Youtube videos a week).
3. I use Google maps maybe 3 times a month.
4. I check social media (Facebook) once or twice daily.
5. I use internet mainly to google something, maybe 2 or 3 times daily.

I never ever use it for games or movies. This is probably why I don't have problems with battery drain.

1. I use my phone for work (run an in-home care business). I literally use a website called Sembracare and help run the entire business from my phone. I use a computer maybe twice a week when I’m in the office. The rest of the week all ran from the phone.

2. Podcast

3. Books

4. School work sometimes (Blackboard app).

5. News.

(I have no social media or games on my phone).

Being NFL season and Steelers fan. Yes, I know... :(

I use YouTube more during the season and DAZN for streaming games.

Battery killer. Hours playing ASPHALT 9. Zynga Poker.

Browsing, Forums, Android Central.

Banking. SAMSUNG Pay falls into this.

Traveling in February to Philippines. So I'm checking the flight cost as well as hotels.

Music while in the gym.

Last night I used to book tickets for JOKER. It was alright. Paid for Starbucks.

I even used it to keep track of my Lotto 6/49 group play at work using Google Keep and use OLG to check the tickets.
