I'm really starting to feel fed up with smartphones and their constant need for personal information just to function. Not to mention all the verification steps for various apps! I'm looking for recommendations on feature phones or alternatives that can help me step back from the smartphone chaos. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I don't see the issue with verification on apps; it usually isn't a hassle for me. What kind of phone are you using? Maybe I can help you figure it out!
If you're looking for suggestions, this article has a good list of basic phones that were popular back in the day. It's definitely worth checking it out for some inspiration!
My kids all use feature phones! They don’t even have texting on some models. They’re quite popular, especially in communities that limit smartphone use due to various reasons. You'd be surprised how many options are available!
Honestly, good luck with that! I can’t imagine managing life without a smartphone these days. Everything from appointments to rides needs an app. Have you considered just adjusting your smartphone settings instead?
Yeah, they still make what we used to call "dumb phones", often referred to as feature phones these days. You can check out Verizon's basic phones section for options or look into sites that specialize in them like DumPhones.org.
I get that it's challenging, but I'm really just looking for something simpler right now!
