Does anyone use a cell phone to share stuff on the Senior Forum?

I have noticed that Misa is sending different aticles, videos,memes,you now.... she hits share..then email...then me. Send. Can you do that and share it with the Senior Forum? I don't have a cell phone. I just use copy and past on my computer. I guess you can do that on a cell phone also. Just curious about how it is done if you do use a cell phone.

Finally I have proof that one other person in the US does not have a cell phone. Every kept telling me I was the only person that did not have a cell phone. LOL
 
It is probable that I will get one soon. It will be a whole new experience. I can hardly use Misa's. I also wonder about 5G and how it is changing mass communication. Instant everything. :)
 
Number four no cell-phone here, but I'd like to ask a question of those who do have one and play computer games on them.

When I play online hearts, sometimes one of the players will throw out a tiny empty square in the area where we make remarks. What does that mean?

I use my cell phone. I held out a long time before I purchased one but now find I almost never use my computer. Of course I also don't have internet here at home so to use my computer I have to use my phone as a mobile hotspot for an internet connection.
 
My son bought me a cell phone and has me on his plan. It is nice but I waste too much time on it. It is to keep each of us informed of our (my) health but we text stupid messages back and forth too.

The screen is a little small and I punch the keys with one finger like a lower primate but it's nice for checking the weather and my news feed as well as a question about anything I've been wondering about.

When I am doing something outside it stays indoors and when I go out it stays in the car. I see a lot of people carrying around a handful of stuff nowadays including the cellphone.

Yesterday I was sitting in the dentist's waiting room and there came in a woman with a stack of stuff. She had a cellphone, a checkbook, a date book calendar, a book for reading plus a couple other things. Maybe there is a market for some kind of cellphone holder that goes around one's neck so it can be stared at and carried hands free, plus have shelves for the other
things. :rolleyes:
 
I use my cell phone and laptop for different things. There is a little bit of overlap (Google and reading email, for instance). But for this forum, I always use the laptop. Typing on a regular keyboard is faster and easier for me.

I didn't have a cell phone until last year. My ex GF gave me one when she upgraded hers. It's an I-Phone 7.
Friends chuckled when I said, "I'm learning how to use this thing - at 69 yrs old."
 
I have a very basic 16 year old Nokia mobile (as we call them) phone. It sends and receives phone calls and texts. I don't send text messages (too long to type without a proper keyboard) and the only ones I receive are pass codes from the bank. I use my Dell laptop for most things.

I don't understand any of that G stuff, but my cell phone says 4 G and my computer modem is a few years old and works.

(I do not do internet stuff on phone, and don't use Wifi on any devices)

I looked it up. 4G stands for fourth generation (of cellphone). 5G is fifth generation. It just has to do with bandwidth and download speed.

If you have 4G LTE, the LTE stands for Long Term Evolution. Nothing provoking. They just had to name it something.

I connect using my wireless gateway at home, that box that connects you to the so-called high speed internet, it's fast enough. If I want to stream TV on my phone, why would I, I'd disconnect the gateway and let the phone use its capability of 4G LTE.
