    This is directed to everyone who has posted in this thread who mentioned they have their phone in or nearby while they shower for music, audio books, etc.

    Why?

    How long are you showering that you need some content to fill the time?
    It honestly concerns me that some people can’t go five to ten minutes, alone with their own thoughts.

    Someone here mentioned meditation, and that is how I shower. A quick, five minute chance to disconnect from the noise of the world.

      My phone has replaced basically every content machine in my vicinity. I’m not buying a shower radio when I have a phone

      My wife has mixed irish and black hair. It takes legit 25 minutes with running water (45+ without) to detangle her hair.

      Most people i know take 20+ minute showers. I fully believed they were lying when the local water company did a presentation at my elementary school and priced out 5-10 minutes for a shower.

      I was wondering the same. Even though my showers always end up taking 15-20 minutes (I get stuck in the warm water), why would you fill that nice, short time, with some extra noise?

      After noticing that I had a harder time enjoying being around water because of concern about my phone getting wet, I’ve just been getting water resistant phones. Haven’t really tested how resistant they are but it’s nice not caring about that anymore.

      Edit: fixed a word

      I have used my Bluetooth speaker every day since I bought it like 3 years ago, I never imagined how much I’d enjoy it
