I rarely use my phone for phone use, if anything more for texting and playing music or browsing the net.

I sometimes use a cell phone to call a taxi, but I rarely use a cell phone for making calls in my daily life because I am mostly at home. I prefer communicating by e-mail, forums, and talking in real life.
Same!! I use it for professional matters like Uber,etc.. but rarely for personal.

Barely. Most of it is games and social media and bullshit.
It's amazing how we've moved away from phone calls as a society. When I was younger I remember being on the phone for hours sometimes. I couldn't tell you now what my friends and I would talk about! Actually come to think of it I remember we would watch shows together and chitchat during it lol
I feel you! When I was a kid the home phone was the most used device now we are just texting and video calling it’s crazy how times change
Apple may even remove the call feature at some point when they figure out that it’s not used much
Tbh, you'd be surprised how many people still use the actual phone function, especially when you get into buisiness and government environments where they still rely on traditional phone calls.I feel you!

I completely agree. In our line of business I would say 90% of our services rely on phone outreach. Although connecting with folks is rare, the voice mails is what gets our message across supplemented by email outreach.
In my workplace, we still use landlines (we do run on VOIP), but we still do traditional phone calls, and people call us on our personal phones after hours for stuff.

I still use my home phone a lot because it is convenient, and I mostly make phone calls at home. I also don't need to worry about running out of battery life, poor cell phone reception, and other cell phone related problems.
that sucks
Mobile reception isn't that great here in Australia either loads of dead spots.
Ah yes same for me however we work strictly 9-5 and never have to make or receive calls after hours.
I’m a server admin, so if it goes down after regular hours, we have someone on call to fix it
