yup. if you have or care to have a smartphone. having a smartphone or even a cell phone should not be some sort of requirement live in society.

Oh cmon, you can get a smartphone literally for free these days. And yes, having a cell phone of some type is pretty much a requirement to live in the 23rd century. Even if you are just communicating over free McDonalds wifi (no shame, been there done that) you pretty much need a smart phone in the modern world.

Whoops, lmao. Obviously I meant the 21st century. Definitely not a time traveler.
