And I have never mastered thumb typing, but I'm damned quick with my index finger! I have trouble understanding why anyone wouldn't want a smart phone- they're just so much fun!

It's a pain to go into each app and disable things, but it's worth it to stop the constant buzzing or dinging or what-have-you.areyoukiddingmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16107214079237461141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-37227999226351330812016-04-05T17:04:45.595-04:002016-04-05T17:04:45.595-04:00You can turn off the notifications.

I have to go somewhere tomorrow where I'll be waiting for a bit, and I can read a book without carrying anything new with me. But yeah, you have to turn off notifications or it will drive you crazy. The only things I accept notifications for are text messages and FaceTime and Skype. And they only go off maybe once or twice per day.

It's so much easier than trying to type with your thumbs.<br /><br />Also, I tend to keep wifi and mobile data turned off unless I want to use it or I'm waiting on something specific to arrive. That way I control the phone and its information, not the other way round.<br /><br />But yes, it's a great toy isn't it?Malihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928262526502319303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-4962021491272236012016-04-04T23:43:13.514-04:002016-04-04T23:43:13.514-04:00Enjoy your new toy!!Enjoy your new toy!!Klarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17028863974858724867noreply@blogger.com
