What's on my Phone 2026!

Quick Overview

The creator reviews their current phone setup for 2026, primarily using an iPhone 17 Pro (with a custom orange color and screen protector) as their daily driver, alongside a OnePlus 15, focusing on how their app ecosystem and home screen configurations differ between the two platforms, highlighting favorite apps like Carrot Weather, TickTick, and various utility apps.

Key Points: The creator primarily uses a mock-up iPhone 17 Pro as their daily driver in this 2026 scenario, contrasting it with a mock-up OnePlus 15. The iPhone home screen features a custom orange wallpaper, the Carrot Weather widget (which the creator prefers over the discontinued Dark Sky), and apps like Notion, YouTube Studio, TickTick, Spotify, and Tesla. The Android (OnePlus 15) setup features apps like Keep Notes, SoundCloud, and Raindrop.io, which the creator uses instead of Pocket Casts. The iPhone's action button is configured to quickly add tasks to the TickTick app, demonstrating superior shortcut integration compared to Android's capabilities at the time. The creator uses the 'Flighty' app on the iPhone to track flight data, pulling real-time information from the Apple Watch and Apple Health, which they find more integrated than similar Android solutions. The iPhone setup also includes widgets for Porsche and Tesla/Solar/Home energy monitoring, showcasing a high level of customization. The creator mentions using a Dbrand grip case for the iPhone and plans to use it long-term, contrasting with the OnePlus setup which they use less often.
