I do not go anywhere without my phone. I would not say that I am attached to my phone it is more of a precaution. I do not want to run out of gas, get in a car accident and not be able to call anyone for help. In a store setting I would not want to get locked in a room without my phone. I guess you could call me cautious. But you can’t go shopping without your phone for the simple reason that if you forget something or your shopping list was not specific enough you can call someone and get clarity on it. If you are clothes shopping alone you might need a friend’s advice on an outfit so you have to send them a picture. So I would fall under the category of “Messaging/emailing a friend.” My client does not have an app store, people would use their cellphones in the Georgia Aquarium to take pictures more than anything.

Yes!!! definitely agree their is nothing wrong with being cautious, my phone may be a distraction but it helps out in so many ways when you are out somewhere.

I agree that taking your phone for cautious reasons is very important! I too fall under the category of messaging/emailing a friend just because I can get bored of shopping sometimes!

I agree. I always have my phone on me, especially if I am going somewhere for more than 10 minuets. You can never be too careful. I think GA Aquarium would benefit from having an app. It could connect with the exhibits and make the time at the aquarium more immersive. .

I am the same way as you. I do not like going anywhere without my phone mainly because I am cautious and don’t want to run into a bad situation and have no way of getting help to get out of it. I also take pictures of outfits and send them to my friends for advice!
