How do you ladies carry your smartphones in the parks?

[jen7233]

Fanny pack. Besides phone I carry a small wallet, sunscreen, chapstick, bandaids, hand sanitizer or wipes

 

[AngiTN]

I haven't put it in my dress straps (lots of my dresses have the built in bras/cups and honestly, at my size, its not that as important as it could be...lol), bra but there are times when I've thought about it for a short second. After hearing that others do it, I may get over myself when I'm desperate for a hand.

I agree! I don't get it either!

I typically wear men's cargo shorts. In addition to the ample pocket space, they don't ride up the thighs like most women's shorts. Much more comfortable! My phone was very handy and well secured at all times.
I wouldn't want to carry my phone in my bra. Too much radiation near the girls!

I think the words of IN a bra is being taken a bit too literally. It's not down in the cups. At least not how I've ever done it.
In the bra shoulder strap would be a much better description.
And yeah, I only do it when I need a quick stash point. I don't find it a good option for all day

But how do you get access to it - unbutton your blouse? Pull down the neck of your shirt? Have it all hanging out? Reaching into a bra to get anything is considered very tacky around here - I'd never even think of doing that all day long!

I wear tank tops 99% of the time at the parks so the top of the phone sticks out barely enough for me to pull it right out. I also keep it held close to my body using the bra strap/tank strap. I never pull down the neck/hemline of it at all. I learned it from seeing so many people at the Six Flags here do it lol so I think I'm desensitized to caring

Still too close to the breasts. Not healthy at all!

For a few minutes? Of course it is fine

I have a "Voxkin" lanyard, I use it for the beach, waterparks and keep it inside the lanyard while taking pictures even.

Which phone model are you using in yours? I need to get a good waterproof one for my waterpark day. We normally don't do them so I've never had to worry with it before but DGD and I are trying one this trip so I need to find something. Wonder if this will really fit the 7Edge. If it really fits up to 7" it would be fine but sometimes things don't equate just right

My phone isn't water proof so placing it under my bra strap, against my sweaty skin isn't going to work lol. Also worried about the heat/moisture fogging up the camera lens or causing condensation.

My wife just keeps hers in her pocket.

 

[Moushe]

ok, I'm glad Im not the only one who carries it in my bra

either that or I ask dh to put it in his cargo shorts. but really my bra is easiest since I need it often for pictures, looking up FP, etc.

its not actually IN my bra, like where my boobs are, more under the strap like right below my shoulder.

I think I've kept it in the "parent organizer" of the stroller when walking and then backpack when riding. But this year I got a custom-made cross body for the parks. It's small but has like 7 pockets.

This bag is beautiful. My girls would love it.

Also my DH has a waterproof fanny pack and I use a small cross body bag.

Here's an interesting take on the "fanny pack" https://thaiartistcollective.com/pr...4jfJ90S48LKDfkrLN8bT61QPJg61XWc23EaAvr_8P8HAQ

Thank you! If you are interested, she has a Facebook page: Paisley Lane Boutique. There are a few at that name, but she is located in Minnesota (if you need help finding the correct page).

Thanks! That's a great bag, I'm going to check out her stuff. I don't need a bag often but when I want one I like fun bags

A few moments? Probably not, but it seems like a lot of people here are using this method for longer periods. The thread title asks how people carry their phones while in the park, and that can mean a significant amount of time added up.

I used mine with the iPhone 6s, I'll have my husband try to put his iPhone 7 in his tonight and let you know!

I agree...fun bags are the best!

DW picked up "The TUBE" waistband at the runner's expo prior to either the Princess Half or Wine and Dine 10k:

After a number of trips she feels it is indispensable for the parks and for travel.
