Very often when I'm outside, not too often when I'm at home and on my computer.
How much do you use your smartphone?

It's basically an alarm clock and music player at this point. I prefer music over games when I'm out, so naturally I don't use it a ton for playing mobile games. There's also the issue of battery life, and games really deplete it rather quickly. I can't really use my phone on low battery, so it's more efficient to just listen to music, do what needs to be done outside, then go back and play games on the PC.
So you don't "talk to people" on your phone? lol

people only text these days.
haha I don't like texting. And my phone is only used when driving so no time to be texting.

Loads. Probably a lot more than I use my laptop or tablet.

hopefully you're not talking and driving at the same time?
I don't talk on my cell while driving unless it's an emergency.
I use my phone a fair bit...
When I wake up I usually check on sites and my email through the browser.
On the way to/from work I use it to play music. (I use an aux cable to plug it directly into my stereo.)
I use it to record the hours I work. (Since I work multiple jobs and I have to keep records of what I'm working to report later.)
I often call/text for work. (Scheduling work days, finding out the plans for that day, etc...)
When I'm on break I use an epub reader to read books (going to start Sir Ian Flemming's Bond series soon).
I use my phone to keep track of what groceries I have/need. (So when my stock gets low I add it to my list of things I need.) I also use it to check the flyers to see what stores have sales on (for the aforementioned goods).
I also use an app to track my vehicle's fuel mileage. (I record every time I put fuel into the tank.)
Finally I use the Steam and PSN apps to message others on. (Like when I have time to play some Killing Floor 2 or whatever with people I message them to let them know so I don't have to turn my PS4 on right then.)
Even through all that though my phone still gets about 3-6 days between charges. (3 days, 16 hours, 26 minutes of uptime on battery with 48% remaining battery at this minute. Though once it hits ~25% it drops quickly.)

Good man.
It would really suck if anything happens to your phone huh?
Yeah it would... That's why I put an Otterbox case on it. I mean I'm pretty gentle with my stuff and it tends to last quite a while anyway. But just in case I can't really afford to have my phone break (especially not if it could have been prevented with a case).

I figured you would use Iron Shield since BA recommends it a lot.

I know otterbox is good, but I've dropped my phone a few times and it has no damage to it.
LOL Damn dude. hehe

I'm not always on my phone. Sometimes I will have my phone out to use to keep up with the time because there isn't a clock near by or anything like that but I won't necessarily be on my phone.
