My wife has a sixth sense of knowing when I'm on the toilet.
I can quietly go about my day, no one ever calls or wants me .... enter the toilet, pull my pants down, in the process of doing my business and the phone rings. Not every time I go to the toilet ... but just about every time she calls, I'm on the toilet. It's uncanny.
Then she gets mad at me for not answering right away or ignoring the call. I always call her back and ask her how she knows when I'm on the toilet.
Same with my dad and sister, except she would only call if he was on a ladder or in heavy traffic or on hold, or otherwise unable to safely take a call.
I ride motorcycle and I love that one. I have an adapter for the phone so I can keep the phone screen in front of me while I ride. I just never use it because I don't want to operate a device while I'm on a bike, no matter how sophisticated you can make it.
I just have it on in case of emergency.
But I can go for long quiet rides in the country side where nothing is happening and no one will ever call.
As soon as I'm in traffic, an intersection or somewhere busy where I need full attention .... someone decides to call and I can see my screen light up.
Holder+video call. Seeing Hanoi traffic or w/e makes people so much more appreciative of why I cant talk.
Just make sure you've got a good phone protector and really wrench that thing tight.
I also have this particular shitty superpower, but for the doorbell ringing
