A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don't understand the people who say that they use their phones in the shower. I can't even change songs on my phone if it gets water on it because the touch screen gets buggy. Also, what do you even do on your phone in the shower? It's not a hands-off activity.
I sometimes listen to music or watch videos in the shower. I double-bag it in clear plastic bags, and then put it in a safe location. When I change songs or videos, I can interact with the screen like normal. Maybe it's just my phone or the plastic bags I use--maybe both?

I suppose there are actual products meant for making phones more waterproof in these situations, but I didn't bother looking for those.
There definitely are. We use them when we go kayaking. Check camping supply places.
Thanks for this tip. I'll keep this in mind the next time I'd literally touch grass (like a camping trip or sth), lol!
