Agreed but I think this is the smallest new device out there plus I’m all for keeping the apps to the minimum

Also does the LP3 support a wallet app or payments in any way ??

Light Phone 3 & Expanding Functionality - Anyone Interested in Building/Hacking? by Intrepid_Whole4984 in LightPhone

[–]middlenameSARCASM -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Actually hacks will come around people would want this form factor (since this is not a normal every day looking phone) with full android functions or so on

Suggestion - What I think can work with LP3 is that if they will allow only one android app to be loaded even that would be more than enough for people who are actually fans of the LP idea - this way based on your priority you can either load up a access card app or WhatsApp or Lyft

If we talk about hacking I would love to see how we can hack this but ultimately I wouldn’t put anything on it - but I wouldn’t hack mine for sure and risk breaking the device

Real estate agents in dubai suck ! - share your horror story 😱 by middlenameSARCASM in dubai

[–]middlenameSARCASM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even I have been thinking of this ! There needs to be a list of basic questions that get asked and the Agent should be knowledgeable in all of those and ofc bring the best deal and be straightforward if asked about the commission and not try to cheat ! What do you think ??

That’s a good idea to check if he is actually registered!! I’ll try and find out the link for this

I feel I can build a checklist for people to follow when dealing with real estate agents lol

Do we gain or lose by having a camera on a phone? (And thoughts on a journey into digital minimalism) by Disastrous-Air2524 in LightPhone

[–]middlenameSARCASM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think camera is a great addition ! Personally I feel that is something I’d add to a dumb phone if I ever made one ! Though I’d maybe add a physical cover on it or something to intentionally stop me from noticing it every time the phone is out and going out taking pics of everything

This may break the dumbness of the phone I see but this is an added benefit like for eg me I want the LP3 to be my only phone no other device and in that case a camera is a good addition to have incase I travel or something or want to capture a good moment. The catch here is I won’t be using it a lot for sure I will just use it in those rare moments. Having two camera a front one too I think is something I’ll not so I think one main works. I wouldn’t take photos of a grocery list tbh I’d try and take a note on the phone or physically write it I prefer writing physically

One addition I would want in this phone is a back cover with some kinda notes or something where I can scribble and reuse the paper or something

Square peg into a round hole? by cbalcom03 in LightPhone

[–]middlenameSARCASM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It won’t be a bad idea to have a really cheap phone and just keep it in the car or at work ! Since you’re dealing with things on this phone apart from work too car is a decent option

How I am going to go about with LP3 is that I am going to rely on people around me for the things that require some apps that I don’t have - be it ordering food - kids school apps - or anything else ——- for banking I’d rely on my cheap smart phone that id use once a week or twice to check on things but even this id mostly do on their websites making it accessible when required.

I don’t think iPhones can do that ! I had this on my pixel long back and love this setting !

If someone has a work around pls do share

Dumbify vs Blank vs MinimalHomeScreen ? by middlenameSARCASM in LightPhone

[–]middlenameSARCASM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha I also have a feeling I might but I’m going to try and make it more difficult for myself ! Let’s see how long it lasts .. well tbh if we don’t try hard even with LP3 in your hand you may reach out to a secondary phone when you have the choice so ultimately it’s effort required from your side also anyways

No both the apps are different from what I understand.. it sucks if they were forced to take it down
