Your phone and you

[Anonymous]

I'm a geek in a hurry. I have tons of toys and I generally grab them and use them in a relatively basic way - phones for calls/browsing/messaging/social media/camera/gaming/email, iPad as phone plus tv, consoles gaming and tv. I pick up whatever gadget I find more useful in the fastest possible way and have little time to invest on learning how to get everything out of it.

Mr Husband is a geek with spare time. His phone switches the lights on, functions as a tv remote, the only thing it doesn't do is cooking his dinner. Yet.

How do you use your gadgets?

Chiara we are not geeks   

We are gadget freaks !  

Lol.

I use my iPhone 5 for literally everything.

Usual calls and texts usage.

I receive around 400 e mails per day which aids me in keeping up with blogs and forums.

My memory is not what it used to be so the reminder and calendar functions are a must.

I even use it occasionally to remotely record a programme on Sky ,and when I'm all tucked up, to turn over my sky channel.

Various Social media keeps me in touch with my family, children and grandchild.

I'm heavily interested in Jail-Breaking, so mi always tinkering too.

I use my ipod touch now purely for listening to music whilst commuting to work.

My MacBook Air stays at home and is used really as a bigger screen option and to sync and manage my iPhone and iPod Touch.

At this stage I've not seen any benefit in buying an iPAD but who knows what will happen in the future. Their is an Apple Store in my home city which when mi in there I keep looking at them !

I use my phone as a phone an an Ipod type music player, that's why it's always on charge, cos playing songs wears the battery out.

I also spend about £4 a week downloading songs from Amazon.

I use it for iMessage (cheaper to keep in touch with people from other countries), Whatsapp... Updating social medias

SMS & phoning just rarely (expensive)

The iPod-feature when I'm in car and the radio just plays stuff nobody wants to listen to (and I don't have the iPod touch with me)

Email... no better way to manage many accounts

And very important calendar... There's no better way to manage 3 duty-rosters, birthdays, name days and other dates.

And if I'm on vacation I use it for keeping up to date with disruptions of the transport-network, use the map-function etc ... And controlling the fritz-box from there to see who called my landline and if I need to respond from abroad.

And some gaming, but that just very rarely
