If you had a phone that only enabled CALLS and TEXTING would you use it instead of your smart phone? #DigitalWellness #AskSwell

When you hear about a phone that's just a phone based on your relationship to your phone now, would you want to switch out and just get that phone and bring back a certain quality of life? We had a conversation with Tim Smith recently about Unplug, which is a device that helps you keep away your phone apps from distracting you

And one of the questions that I would have is, is there a way to then go and pair this phone with another smartphone so that both of them work, both of them run on the same service? But I would have the option to switch over to that phone and then develop a schedule and where I can use that rather than I'm using my typical phone with all of its capabilities. Thank you for starting this conversation. I'm excited to see where it goes

There's a lot of phone calls, credit cards, loans, investments all that takes place on a high level if you have not done it throughout the year, apart from medicine. So phones help us and also is a nuisance when we don't need it the most. But like this when we do listen to each other and motivate and instigate each other to be oneself and to explore the ideas that we have within. Let's unite and bring forward lots of topics in this way. Very interesting

hello! joe from Light Phone here ✌️

So whatever SIM card you put into the light phone, that's the phone number that the light phone uses. So there are certainly users who kind of switch between a light phone and a smartphone moving that physical SIM card between the two devices. And it's kind of like how we have different shoes for different occasions. Some days maybe you need the full fledged smartphone for whatever it is that you're doing that day, but other days you want that kind of peace of mind of going light

Giving it to a child as a first phone is definitely something we're seeing more and more of or parents who their child is too young them for a phone, but they want to be a better example and more present with their kids and they choose to get a light phone. So it's been really interesting to see all the different ways that light phone can fit into people's lives. Thanks

I think it'd be a really cool place for everyone to connect because it kind of resonates in the same way. Even though it's a phone app, I think that there's a place for it. So thank you very much for being here
