hey where's up guys mkbhd here I get asked a lot of tech questions but the one that constantly comes up is what's your daily stuff and what's on your phone and this tends to be something I regularly get asked and even though I've done this video before I didn't do this video over and over again because what's on my phone was mostly the same through school but this is the first year where I'm not a full-time student so my priorities have changed a little bit and the setups a little different now just a little bit so let's do it now I do still have two SIM cards both our AT&T one of them is my primary sim which is the phone number everyone has and the other is my secondary sim nobody has that number it's just for review phones so when I'm reviewing a phone I move all communications except texting and calling to the review phone I still carry both phones but now I take photos and observe battery life and do everything I can on the review phone and if it's good enough then it'll move up to become my main phone and it gets my main sim and repeat that process every time and interesting new smartphone comes out the main sim right now is in a nexus 6p the secondary sim right now is in a next bit Robin so you already know what that means so this is my Nexus 6p if you've seen any other what's on my phone videos that'll look familiar I'll link to the skin I have on it below now most metal phones really don't need a skin but I like the way this one looks so there you have it and yes the wallpaper I'm rocking will be linked to right below that like button if you're looking for that too and this is a setup it's a pretty clean stock look Google launcher and honestly the better these stock apps get the less I have to rely on third party stuff for extra functionality plus I keep this setup pretty simple and clean since I have to be able to quickly set it up when I move to a new device so up top on the main home screen I have this widget with the forecast and the temperature it's called buzz widget and they have a whole launcher and a whole bunch more ways to customize stuff but I just have this simple one here linking to a weather app because it's clean now so that's just sits there looking pretty and then below that you have all the most used apps so right off the bat you probably have the two most frequent use then music apps so I have SoundCloud and Spotify and I have public profiles for both and I use both I listen to a lot of music a lot of playlists all that sort of stuff I also have G tasks for Google Tasks and Google keep a lot of people ask why do I have both I use tasks just for like my to-do list so literally things I need to get accomplished by a certain time or day and then Google keep is more of like a notes app for lists things to remember there's also a folder of Google Apps that I use most often and then the YouTube studio app which I probably open like every day I reply to comments I check up on things I use YouTube studio all the time then MyFitnessPal app and pocket which is a link aggregator sort of like a pocket of saving links so if I see something I want to come back to I drop it in pocket and then of course at the bottom you can't forget the dock with the most important stuff so I have the phone the messenger the camera app of course and I use Phoenix for Twitter so that's my go-to Twitter app and it kind of has been for a while I know there's a couple others that are now you know pretty similar to it but in terms of functionality and simplicity pretty much can't go wrong with Phoenix anyway that's pretty much it for the main home screen as you can see it's familiar but functional and then just to the right of that I'm still rocking this fullscreen widget so this widget is called the today calendar widget it basically takes my google calendar and makes it scrollable and just this layout of all my calendar events for the day and I use Google Calendar a lot so I'm always swiping over here to make sure I know where I'm at for the day and that's it that's the whole to screen setup for the way I keep my android phone nothing too crazy of course all the way over to the left of those home screens there's Google now and all my cards I use Google Voice Search all the time from the home screen but the cards are pretty useful too looks like Clippers beat the Spurs the other night so that's pretty dope and yeah I feel like pretty much anyone can emulate this set up if they wanted to real quick I'll hop over into my app drawer for some other apps that I don't have on my home screen so not a billion apps or anything as you can tell but I do let's see I have Apple music I don't really use it that much but I have it because you know SoundCloud and Spotify are obviously really good I got some pretty standard stuff in between I do have the Yahoo fantasy sports app currently dominating an NBA fantasy league if you're wondering no big deal also I do have a little of a philips hue setup going on in my office as you probably already know I've been considering checking out lifx which is a very similar thing after some recommendations of it but I also saw a pretty baller looking beta hue app coming up soon so I want to check that out before I switch up my hardware there's also the NBA gametime app I have League Pass I watched clipper games though Clippers ah periscope do people still periscope I still periscope sometimes I feel like whenever I log on there there's not a whole lot happening but every once in a while I do a live show for whatever fun reason we come up with we're following their over on periscope if you haven't already I also have this app called screener so this is pretty cool I'll show you actually you can basically make really pretty looking home screen showcase images just by inserting it onto an image of the actual device so you pick your device and then go down into your gallery and you choose your screenshot and then it'll drop that screenshot image nicely onto a clean shareable image of your phone I don't know it's a lot prettier than just showing the screenshot you know anyway rounding it out you have relay Pro for reddit snapchat you should totally follow me on snapchat it's pretty much the only place I post behind the scenes and other random stuff that disappears within 24 hours so snapchat story is where it's at and then we have vscocam when I'm feeling fancy although instagrams editing tools have been good enough for me 90% of the time and then Zillow since I'm looking for a new place like constantly and that's what's on my phone there you go any suggestions or apps you feel I should know about definitely let me know if you're free to drop them in the comments section and I'll have an eye out for those thanks for watching I'll talk to you guys the next one peace
