I have lots of old iPhones ( SE 2016, 6, 6s, 6s Plus, 7, 7 Plus) and they’re all rotting in my drawer. Can they be used for something fun?

    Where I live at, we wipe the phones then donate to women’s shelter or to abused people from bad relationships. You can use them for remote controls or do a hand me down to someone in your family.

    My old devices, Android and Apple are useful for creating alternative accounts for some games. Currently, I have 18 devices with SimCity Buildit loaded. I got bored with that never ending game so most of those devices are just turned off. The old smart phone with just 16GB are still able to call 911, the emergency number is the USA. I was able to donate a few to the women’s shelter so the victims of domestic violence could call the police at least.

    Call and text. Take photos and videos, use “clownshoe-ish” Snapchat filters, and stream your favorite tv shows & movies.

    I’m here from the other side (username checks out), but I have a bunch of Pixels, and usually use all of them. My 8 pro is my daily driver, old 7 pro is my secondary for now (I treat it like you would a tablet I guess) and will eventually be passed to a family member. My 6 pro and 5 are in use by family members, and they’ll be upgraded once they stop getting security updates. My 3 is used for playing around with LineageOS. My original pixel is a GPhotos backup slave. My original original pixel’s motherboard died, and I miss the Nexus 6p I traded in for it…
