I used to have a perfectly working system with a waterproof bag-thing for the phone and a bluetooth speaker somewhere outside of the shower so I could watch youtube videos while just chilling in the shower.
Also had one of those long 1920s cigarette holders so I could smoke a joint in there. I made a good time out of it.

You son of a bitch, I'm in.
People bring their phones into the shower?!
Always wild concept to me. People bringing their $1000 electronics into an environment not made for them. Like come on, how long are you in the shower, do you really need to be entertained while washing your body?
That's where all the best ideas come from!
Back before smartphones, when everyone was bleaching the tattletale to get the phone warrantied after getting even a little water near it, there was a rumor going around. Kids with friends in Japan were hearing that people over there had waterproof cellphones and would be talking while in the shower. We were super jealous, not for shower talking, but for the feature. I’d think ICP rated phones today should be able to handle some humidity.

This sentence fragment really threw me for a loop lol... It took a minute, but I got there eventually.
There are Insane Clown Posse rated phones!? I need one of those because I keep killing mine because I spill Faygo on it.
Just be sure to keep it away from magnets as we don't know how they work
You can spend 1 millisecond away from your tsunami of AI sludge!?
Can't give your wife any chance on reading texts of you hitting on other women.
Notthst I'm cheating with other women (seriously who can be bothered) my phone is locked with my fingerprint. As much as we share a lot in life I have not given her copies of my fingerprints so she couldn't unlock the phone anyway. In theory she knows the passcode but since she asks me for it every single time she needs to use my phone I'm recently confident she doesn't retain it.
"Why would you have the phone in the shower anyway?"
MUSIC.
I use mine for music but I leave it outside of the shower, if a shit song comes on it's my fault for having it on the playlist
How long are you in the shower for that it plays more than one or two songs?
With most songs usually being around 3 minutes, you could listen to 5 in a 15 minute shower.
As long as it takes to wash away my sins
put it in a plastic bag or two and ready you are to keep being consumed by content.
who the fuck would
Sad, that the recommendation is "use Bluetooth speakers instead, which are more expendable" instead of "are safe to use".
UE BOOM speakers are safe to use in a humid bathroom during a shower. I'm pretty sure.
They sound fucking fantastic too.
I used to have a waterproof Bluetooth speaker, but it was actually better than having your phone with you since it was right there in the shower.
It is pretty amazing to me that some people really have to be told not to bring their expensive electronics into the shower. It's the shower, just wash your dirty ass and get out.
Ive brought my phone into the shower for decades and it has not caused any problems ever.

WHO USES THEIR PHONE IN THE SHOWER
Same people who use their phone in the car
Me.
Not often, because I like bathing and using phone is wasting your water relaxation time. But, I do use it sometimes when I want music or am in the middle of something and also need or want to take a shower or bath.
Phone reading in the bath is amazing.
To be clear, I also have always strived for completely waterproof cases.
