If you lost your PHONE..............

Not bothered in the slightest. Just get a new one and download my back up

If I lost my phone I'd be lost simply because I don't know anyone's phone numbers anymore. Convenience has led to laziness on that front. There are plenty of times I don't take my phone when I'm with my husband but if I'm without him I never leave it.

How much does it impact your daily life? Personally for me, it'd just be an inconvenience because I'd have to use a land line to make a call, but I could definitely make it easily without it.
I don't own a "smart phone" and just have a regular flip phone to get messages, texts and calls from family and clients.

So how about you?

I only have a regular flip phone that I was using for emergency - basic Verizon Service and I rarely went go over the allotted minutes. I use my cell phone for when I visit my son and daughter-in-law (no land line); and currently I'm using my cell phone to get calls from my contract agency. Was laid off in February so I'm doing contract work. If I continue doing contract work, I may have to break down and get a smartphone, I'm directionally challenged and that would help me find the client.

I would wander around aimlessly after searching everywhere for it. I know this for a fact because that is exactly what happened last year when someone stole it from me at work

I don't like to lose my phone because my mom has medical issues and currently without internet right now. So, I freak a little when I don't have my phone on me. I don't have a smart phone either, and I don't care about losing it for anything special, but if my mom needs to contact me, I hate not having it on me.

I lost mine and used the AVG app to find it. This is a free app.

My life would shatter into pieces! Sha-tah Sha-tah (Mick Jagger voice) It's how I use MFP when I'm out of the house. And I've grown to be too dependent on my phone. So, I'd die.

I'd be just fine. I don't use a cell phone. I don't like them. I have one, but only charge it up if it's nasty out or I'm going a distance so that I can call 911 if necessary. I see families out to dinner and everyone's on the phone and not talking to each other. I've had people hit with shopping carts because they aren't paying attention because they are to distracted and then tell me to to watch where I'm going. I've been rear ended a couple of times by people talking and texting. I've seem parent's loose their children in the mall because they are to busy paying attention to the phone and not their children and or get hurt.

I didn't lose my phone, but it is unusable right now. The battery will not hold a charge. The stores in my area do not carry the battery. So I have had to order one online. I haven't had a working phone since Thursday night. I can plug it up and get enough charge to update my food log, then it is back out.

I have been having cell phone withdrawals. I am on the verge of breaking down and crying. My battery will not be here till Monday or Tuesday, and can be as late as Thursday or Friday. :sad:

I'd immediately have it remotely erased because my entire life is on that phone. All of my credit card information, passwords to EVERYTHING, social security number... albeit they're all tucked away in a locked application, but who knows how crafty the person who finds it is... they might know a way through all that and get it.

Important (and private) phone numbers... addresses, appointments, reminders, alarms, photos, documents... jeez, I'd be toast.

A lot of the apps I use are very convenient and make life a lot easier, and I certainly could make due without them, but it'd be a rough time getting over not having them available.
