6 Things You Have Forgotten How To Do Because Of Your Phone by dammy13(op): 7:39am On May 13, 2017
You can virtually do anything and everything with your smartphone. This has made some of us forget how to do certain things that were naturally part of you. And depending on you, these things may be good or bad. Whatever the case maybe, Jumia Travel , the leading online travel agency shares the things you have forgotten how to do due to your phone.

Hang out with friends & family

Smartphones have obviously killed interpersonal relationships. Very few people visit their family members and friends. They prefer to chat with them on instant messaging platforms like WhatsApp, and BBM. In fact, WhatsApp groups are now created for the family. They may call sometimes.

How to spell

Smartphones have clearly encouraged the use of shorthand that so many people don’t know how to spell anymore. Also, you don’t need to finish spelling a word before your smartphone preempts you and give you that word. So, quite a number of persons have difficulty spelling.

Learn to take pictures

Any phone that has an excellent and awesome camera is perfect for taking pictures. You don’t need photography skills for this purpose. Even professional photographers are now worried that there are so many quacks in the business of photography. By the way, a serious photographer will never use a smartphone as his camera.

Read a book

How can you read a book when you are transiting from Facebook to Twitter and Instagram at the comfort of your bedroom? The reading culture has seriously declined due to the popularity of smartphones. There are eBooks that are compatible with phones which people are not even reading.

Read maps

With Google maps, you don’t require a physical map to find your way. You won’t find maps in many homes today. So, we have forgotten how to read maps.

Do simple Math

It is difficult today to do a simple math offhand. Why do you have to when you have a phone calculator? Therefore, it is just a waste of time calculating spontaneously.

I totally disagree with OP's opinion on number 4. Researches have shown that increased use of smart phones has indeed increase and improve reading culture. Millions of people now read on d screen rather than physical reading which has its limitations. For example check d number of members (readers) here on naira land and tell me which Library in d world can physically bring that number together to read at once?

Smartphones even encourage reading, unless you don't want to read, or why is there pdf on the phones? I've read over 12 novels of Sidney Sheldon, qll on my smartphone, without which I wouldn't have read them because I can't afford to buy all the novels.

Just like someone said that a time is coming when our women will start wearing just pants and bras to occasions, the same time is coming when exams (yes exams) will be written with smart phones. The world is going the e-way, what are you gonna do about it?

Rubbish. It's not too late to return to the old way of doing things like writing letters on a sheet of paper and sending it to your village people rather than sending messages on your phone.
