I doubt I look at the time on my phone more than a couple of times per week. I have wall clocks all over the house and a watch on my wrist. Almost all of them, including my watch, automatically correct themselves using the WWV time signal from the National Bureau of Standards.

I don't have anything against using my phone, but it's easier to glance at the wall or my wrist than to get out my phone when I want to know the time.

I use clocks all the time - it's way faster to look at a clock than pull my phone out.

Its even faster to simply look at a wall clock than the clock on my phone when I'm using the phone, since the fint is so small and digital.

Analog clocks are just faster to read, for me - I don't have to think about "what do these numbers mean".

Analog clocks are just a better analog for the passing of time.

At the bus stop. Yeah the timetable and my mobile say bus in 1 min, but I really need to validate my phone is correct because I don't SEE the bus. Where is it????

I still wear a wristwatch. Not as jewelry, a cheap one that tells time. Pulling the black obelisk out of pocket just to see the time is burdensome and slow.

Not to mention a fresh opportunity to drop the damn thing.

Watches: Am I a joke to you?

My smart watch recently died and I found myself quickly glancing at my bare wrist then surveying my surroundings for a clock only to check my phone as a last resort. Before my smart watch, my phone was my default but I'd still see clocks, read them... and then check my phone immediately after.

Things like flyers, posters, communication boards etc, have completely blended into the scenery for me for as long as I can remember. Unless the active task is waiting with little to no distractions or entertainment I won't notice them.

I never look at my phone for the time, it's inconvenient to get out every time I want to check the time, but a wall clock is just there to glance over at.

My default time is based on my mechanical wrist watch. Why should I dig out my phone outside of actually getting a phone call?

"Alexa, what time is it?" is pretty common in my house. I do use my phone a lot for it, but I'm also more likely to get distracted if I do.

For you, maybe, but for me it's my desktop's clock -- with my microwave as the fallback (e.g. when I'm playing a fullscreen game).

I basically only check the time on my phone if I'm out and about (which is... rare) or when I'm getting up/going to bed -- which also serves as a check for messages (since I have my phone on Do Not Disturb 24/7).

I actually bought a physical wall clock earlier this year thinking that I could stick it somewhere more convenient to read than the microwave, but the ticking was too damned annoying.

i look at my wall clock quite a lot, mainly because it's easier for me to visualise the "distance" of time with it. and hour on my phone is not much different from 5min

Hmm. Can't remember that we used to go outside and walk to a clock tower just to set the time.

In the past, there was a phone number you could call on the landline which would tell you the exact time.
