Is it stupid to carry 2 devices!?

[me just saying]

only one phone for me. A while back when I was selling an older phone, just about everyone was asking me if it could have two numbers.

Suppose that you carry an iPhone. Should you lose or misplace it - and you will - how can you immediately locate it except by using another iPhone? The same with Androids. So, if you like to use both iPhones and Androids at the same time - and we do - four phones will be the obvious minimum.
We may be fools - and we are - but we’re not fools.

Great point! Never would thought of that......makes total sense!

I was going to do the same thing, but I think it's stupid. But I have no need for two phones.

You can locate an iPhone by logging into "Find My" from an iPhone, Mac, or even Windows. Don't need an Android to locate your lost or stolen iPhone.

I did it for awhile when I was younger, got annoyed with it. I still actually have 2 phone lines but one goes weeks at a time without leaving the house. There's little reason for 2 phone numbers unless one is for business.

I wouldn't call it stupid, we all have our preference, do what makes you happy.

You can go to android.com/find and sign into your Google account from a PC and find your phone.

For most Sammy's, some carriers block it like Verizon.

That doesn't surprise me, they are way over controlling.

I love the term "googly". I'd have a Google Pixel, Samsung or OnePlus phone and an iPhone.

The second Android is to locate the misplaced first Android.

I don’t carry a PC with me when I’m out and about.

You're not carrying your phone either if you lost it and had to find it... So what's your point?

That I can easily use one phone to locate a misplaced one. It takes seconds and can be done anywhere.

If I lose my phone it's in the house so I or my wife just call it. Seems it's always in the last place I look for some reason
