“Meadow gives you some apps along with calls and texts, but don’t plan on having a big contact list.”
It limits you to 12 contacts.
The premise–a mostly dumb phone with some access to music and navigation only–isn’t bad but the execution is. I don’t want to be locked into some very specific apps in my semi-dumb phone. The article also makes this good point:
The deal becomes even less appealing when you consider that you can just, you know, buy an actual dumb phone for around $50 if you’re really that hellbent on taking a break from TikTok.
Wish phones could be more like computers, just build your own for your needs. I know there was project Ara but that did not work out great I think.
IIRC it got slurped up into Google and sold for parts.
