Like, you just look weird if you sitting by yourself (example: waiting at a bus stop) and just stairing into space, so like its basically social expectation to be on your phone when you are by yourself.

Plus, just feels like if you don't have a phone on you, you are missing a lot of information (access to the internet, maps, etc.) that you might need in case you get lost or something.

If I take public transport, then I look outside the window.

Hmm, maybe on a bus or train above ground. On a subway, there's nothing besides the dark void of the tunnels.
