By far my most favorite use is as a notepad that I always have with me. I use a custom keyboard to make typing faster and more accurate.

Anything y'all like to do with your phones that you feel like most people miss out on?

I use mine with Microsoft Lens (I know, but one of their best products that doesn't spy on you) as a document scanner and then sync it to my document server paperless-ngx.

It can angle correct, color correct, and has good filters for b&w and greyscale that often make it look like a real document scanner if your phone has a decent camera.

Much better than drive or any of the open source options to be honest, sadly....

iOS has a built in document scanner, which does all of that as well. Has never let me down.

You can swipe on the spacebar to move the cursor left and right to make some spelling corrections or whatever,

If you have a phone with a headphone jack, you have a portable radio... without the antenna. But just plug in headphones and you're good to go.
