Dumbphones

Smartphones dominate the world. But have we become smarter by using them?

This community is oriented for people who prefer either so-called "dumbphones" or "feature phones" in order to regain control of their life.

Here is a very simple set of rules to follow:

  1. Don't be rude to others.
  2. Don't harass or shame somebody for not being hardcore dumbphones fan. Everybody does it his own way.
  3. Keep this community simple: discussions must be dumbphone or smartphone-oriented, not about dogs or food.

All in all, enjoy your time here :D

Found this really cool and minimal Android launcher the other day.

For the past few months I've been using a side (smart)phone where I only installed Whatsapp and Spotify. Just an old Android I found in the bottom of a drawer. This has worked well for me, and Olauncher is a nice touch that makes it feel even more minimal. I sometimes go out only with the side phone or leave the main phone on my bag. As a result I get much less distracted than before.

I know this doesn't qualify as a dumphone, but I thought I could share in case someone who is not ready yet to make the switch to dumbphone finds it interesting.
