Phone is your key to your apartment

Phone is your metro card

Phone is your payment method

Phone is PHONE

Okay, I needed keys for my scooter, but even then I eventually transferred it to a lock system on my PHONE.

Also. You only needed like ..... 2 apps ever??

Alipay and 微信 THAT'S IT.

They had little extensions to do all the in-between for you

FFFFuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

And before anyone fights me, you can use 美團 and eleme on 微信 just saying.

Okay I'm done my tantrum. Time to drag my ass to class.

That sounds so nice...

IT IS AMAZING.

I actually hate that idea because I have zero faith in smart-anything or the security of cell phones as the universal key

Ya well. China. Everything is security but not the security you want

I will be using mechanical locks until I am dead in the g r o u n d /shot

The security you NEED lol

WELL THERE IS THAT I SUPPOSE

ALL THAT SAID

The number of times I had to bail out a friend taking the metro with me because their phone died mid-metro ride

Is a lot

If your phone dies or breaks or gets stolen you are royally screwed lmao

I've never heard of someone's phone getting stolen, even in China.

I even had someone run after me like a BLOCK to return my phone because I was a dumdum and it fell out of my pocket after I got up at a restaurant

BUT GODDDDDDDDDDD I MISS THIS CONVENIENCE

i'm with you on this

as long as you have wechat you have The App

you dont need to download 456454546 more apps to do anything

YEEEES precisely
