Crazy idea, a phone setting that when enabled changes touch sensitivity settings to be more selective of touch inputs while in the shower..
No idea how this would work in practice but some sort of pattern recognition for what might be a drop of water on the phone screen as opposed to a touch input.
Holy shit! Can't you people put down your phone for 15 goddamn minutes?! Just allow yourself to hear your own thoughts without an algorithm leading you.
FIFTEEN MINUTES!
Do you get angry at everything other people do or is this just projection?
Finally, a shower thought about showers
Anyone not able to Livestream themselves in the shower on request from the mods should be banned
Showering so boring these days, I need to doomscroll.
Reason why I listen to music. So relaxing having a hot shower witg a nice tune :)
Hmmmm I still think this problem would persist with non water liquids
I bought a waterproof WiFi speaker for the shower. I listen to a podcast while I shower and my phone sits on the counter far from water. As soon as I get dry, I switch back to earbuds. Works great.
Watched my first YouTube video in the shower the other day, it was about the afd party in Germany. Very informative I didn't know just how far right wing they were since I don't speak German and don't know a lot about their politics.
I think technologically this is something an engineering team should tackle. It would probably benefit people who use touch devices for work in dirty and wet environments as well.
How long do you spend in the shower that you have time to doom scroll? Maybe it's time to switch to baths if you have a tub. If you don't, I would boringly suggest just not taking the phone into the shower if you know that the touch sensor will be wonky. It may speed up the shower and lessen your water consumption as a side effect. That's good for your wallet and the environment. The internet can wait 5-10.
I get the meditative effect of a hot shower after a long day. I enjoy that on occasion as well. At no point did I ever think the experience would be improved by a cell phone with a camera being present.
Some phones do try to detect water droplets
I’d be too paranoid to use my phone in the shower, it’s covered with cameras and microphones and may be full of backdoors as well.
Ive already taken regular photos of myself naked so I don't think it really matters
OnePlus did something like this, can't speak about the effectiveness though
Like...in the water? Did you mean a water shower?
Nah the other kind of shower mate
Meteor or golden? I hate to nag, but the preparations of either one differ a little.
How many baby showers you going to? Damn.
Are you seriously using your phone in the shower? Is that a thing people do?
Mfers will use their phone daily in the bathroom but the second you step in the shower it's a crime against humanity
Mfers will use their phone daily on the side of the pool but the second you toss it in the deep end it's a crime against humanity
Well, science, kinda yeah. It is a crime against science.
Not sane ones.
It's an emotional decision not a rational one I admit
I do turn on some music occasionally, and I keep the screen visible to be able to tell the time. But I don't touch it often while showering, only to reactivate the AOD if it turns off for it not being light enough in the bathroom for its taste.
