Yes, but rarely can I figure out how to use it. Whether it’s a text, email, or web site I want to look at, the keys don’t work the way they are supposed to or the keys themselves do not make sense.
Same. I’ve read that this is because that part of your brain isn’t functioning or something. I have no source. Just “I think I heard this once.”
This reminds me of another factoid - most people never write in their dreams. I wonder if there is a relationship.
That’s how I make sure I’m dreaming - I look for anything written. Written words in dreams are always changing and illegible.
I have read many things just fine in my dreams, never had a cell phone though.
So, back when I worked in a Verizon store, I dealt with a lot of damaged phones. Any time there’s water in a dream, I always check my phone to see if it’s water damaged. Other than that, it never really gets used.
I couldn’t ever recall having a dream where I had a cell phone. Hell, I don’t think I communicated with anyone in those dreams outside of literally conversating face to face.
Yes, and weirdly enough, I can also read and write in my dreams just as I can in real life.
Yep. I have on several occasions had dreams about my phone having been taken over by malware or similar, the homescreen being changed to be full of junk apps, and being unable to uninstall them or take back control of the phone. Not pleasant at all.
Sometimes , but there are pop-up ads, and weird apps running, that prevent me from using it. Or I can’t switch from the app currently running to the app I want. For some reason, when I have my phone in my dreams, these are common themes.
I don’t remember actually making phone calls in my dreams.
No. Sometimes I have a computer in my dreams but it is usually useless.
I’ve never had a cell phone in a dream but I’ve dreamed about other pieces of technology like video games. Though in my dreams if I interact with something like a video game there is no abstract medium like a peripheral and screen through which I’m interacting, it’s like I’m transported into the game whether it is first person or third person.
I never have mine, I spent half my life using payphones. I looked in my dream journal and I found a couple of dreams where I tried to use a payphone but it was out of order.
I asked the kid who works for me, he is 20 so he has never used a pay phone. He said he has his phone but it never works.
Maybe there is something to that…idk, I am just a peckerwood from South Texas who married the same batshit crazy woman twice so I am pretty stupid lol.
Thats interesting, If I really think about it I never have dreamt about technology at all.
I am my cell phone
Not at all sure tbh, I’ve never remembered having a dream. They sound neat though!
The only time that I remember dreaming with my phone, I was trying to turn it off, while its real life counterpart rung furiously.
I’ve dreamt some times with my desktop though. Such as:
- my cat pulling out the mouse from my computer, sitting in its place on the mousepad, and then meowing loudly (she does this a lot when she’s play-hunting)
- throwing potatoes on the screen, so I could get some French fries in return
- keyboard gardening: the keys were subbed with small pots full of dirt, some with small versions of plants. A lot of them were pepper plants and I was trying to cross-breed them.
Sometimes! I’ve definitely used it to make calls or check the time.
