We went through periods with all the kids where wife could only get a hold of one of them on Snapchat, others didn't use that so other one could only get a hold of him on Instagram, and last one was only Twitch or something like that. Damn kids couldn't even coordinate on an app to use lol.
A bit off topic, but I have been using a neoprene sleeve for my phone the last two years and no longer have issues with it getting destroyed in the woods. Sleeve sits in my pocket or bino harnes and protects as well as keeping debris out of the charging ports.
I'm not very tech savvy.
Just as a way to unplug. I hate feeling like a smart phone is another appendage that has to be with me. I use it for everything and feel dependent on it. I hate that. From my understanding, and I’m still researching this but the evidence seems abundant, that smartphones are destroying people’s ability to think critically and creatively. And people have a hard time with being bored or content just being. I’ve observed this in myself.
Also, I will be the only one in my agency that does this and will be made fun of nonstop no doubt! Haha. Oh well, the older I get, the more I realize being different is a good thing. Society isn’t healthy.
Do it. They used to make fun of me at my agency. They all now know to leave me a message, or send a text, and the next time I am near my phone, I will return their call. IMO, we have created an expectation of constant contact and an expectation of response, and no one is left alone to do their job anymore.
For me......I have to charge my Iphone every two days whether I use it or not. My flip phone holds a charge for two weeks even using it every day. But the best part is......I have full service in my elk camp or out hunting with the flip phone. The Iphone is useless up there.......even with the same provider (Verizon).
