No idea how this would work in practice but some sort of pattern recognition for what might be a drop of water on the phone screen as opposed to a touch input.
Showering so boring these days, I need to doomscroll.

Reason why I listen to music. So relaxing having a hot shower witg a nice tune :)
Finally, a shower thought about showers
Anyone not able to Livestream themselves in the shower on request from the mods should be banned
I like how the comments just assume you’re scrolling SM or texting people in the shower but I think it would be rad to not be worried about getting my phone wet so I could use it to listen to music in there. The only other option is to turn voice commands on and start shouting at it over the sound of the shower.
You can get waterproof Bluetooth speakers that are designed to go in the shower for less than £10 in the UK. The sound quality isn’t amazing, but they’re not much different from a phone speaker, especially with the sound of the water 👍
I have a JBL Clip 3 I use in the bathroom when I shower. Sound quality’s pretty good but I just listen to podcasts with it rather than music.
I listen to music in the shower, I’m not sure why this would involve taking the phone into the water?
So I don’t have to have the music so loud
Even just reaching out to touch it while I am wet will make the phone wet.
Seriously, everyone jumping to the worst possible interpretation, like they’ve never wanted to listen to music or had an audio book they didn’t want to put down.
Struggling to see how it’s different from watching tv while you iron or listen to music while cooking
How about instead of that we tackle the problem by the source? Taking showers is so last century.
Dry cleaning for humans. Boom! Problem solved!
Hmmmm I still think this problem would persist with non water liquids
Physically impossible
We would’ve never gotten to the moon with this attitude
I bought a waterproof WiFi speaker for the shower. I listen to a podcast while I shower and my phone sits on the counter far from water. As soon as I get dry, I switch back to earbuds. Works great.
Watched my first YouTube video in the shower the other day, it was about the afd party in Germany. Very informative I didn’t know just how far right wing they were since I don’t speak German and don’t know a lot about their politics.
hop in your washer an dryer with clothes 2 birds 1 stone and your phone scrolls itself from the spinning
If I could wash my clothes while showering with them my life would be changed
just make a tide pod belt an hop in the shower
I’d be too paranoid to use my phone in the shower, it’s covered with cameras and microphones and may be full of backdoors as well.
Ive already taken regular photos of myself naked so I don’t think it really matters
I think technologically this is something an engineering team should tackle. It would probably benefit people who use touch devices for work in dirty and wet environments as well.
How long do you spend in the shower that you have time to doom scroll? Maybe it’s time to switch to baths if you have a tub. If you don’t, I would boringly suggest just not taking the phone into the shower if you know that the touch sensor will be wonky. It may speed up the shower and lessen your water consumption as a side effect. That’s good for your wallet and the environment. The internet can wait 5-10.
I get the meditative effect of a hot shower after a long day. I enjoy that on occasion as well. At no point did I ever think the experience would be improved by a cell phone with a camera being present.
One thing I think people aren’t quite getting is that showering with my phone isn’t a logical decision, it’s an emotional one lmao.
What emotions are you having that cannot deal with 5-10 minutes of pure bodily hygiene focus?
OnePlus did something like this, can’t speak about the effectiveness though
Ugh It technically is a thing but it sucks…somehow ads get opened when my finger is hovering but refuses things I touch when I press specific links, or try to move that stupid magnifying window to copy a sentence.
But yes, would be amazing
Some phones do try to detect water droplets
Like…in the water? Did you mean a water shower?
Nah the other kind of shower mate
How many baby showers you going to? Damn.
Meteor or golden? I hate to nag, but the preparations of either one differ a little.

Holy shit! Can’t you people put down your phone for 15 goddamn minutes?! Just allow yourself to hear your own thoughts without an algorithm leading you.
FIFTEEN MINUTES!

Do you get angry at everything other people do or is this just projection?
