One latest survey from 11mark shows that 75% of U.S. smartphone users to use mobile phones in toilet. The proportion of female users is more than male users (76% vs 74%), while male users are more addicted to it, 30% of male users said that every time they go to the toilet will carry a cell phone, compared to 25% of female users. Then what's your story?

Well I do that for so many porpose, I don't like missed someones call,email etc. I have everything on my phone I can do mylotting, chatting, texting, and even listening to music and games. I don't see nothing wrong using it on the toilet just be careful to drop it on the bowl or sink.

Yes,there is nothing using the smartphone in the toilet. I was puzzled at the beginning,I don't the relation between the smartphone and the toilet,I keep my phone online all day long and carry it everywhere except sleeping. Now,I know,the survey report can only tell us the smartphone is a very important equipment in our life,no privacy!

Unfortunately, we have no WiFi yet in our toilet. Hopefully soon when I buy a nice wireless router for our internet connection. I sometimes bring with me my phone when I am waiting for an important call. I also bring it when I am currently using it like talking to someone.

You do not use your smartphone without WiFi? We may play games or type SMS, etc.

We mostly use our smart phones for surfing the net. I also use the games and other applications but not in the toilet. I usually use it if I'm texting somebody or waiting for an important call.

I am surely not using my phone on the toilet, I don't even take it with me. I seldom do only if I go out for longer. Mostly I leave it at home, check if someone called as soon as I come back home. I wonder what people do with their smartphones on the toilet, I assume (hope) not calling other people! It's hard to believe male users are using their phone more frequently as female.. or is it instead of reading the news paper over there? (so some privacy time). I go to the toilet because I need to, not to update my social life or play games.

Well, smartphone has been a necessary part of my life. I always take it with me. And maybe I can assume that you are a pragmatist.

Lol, I don't bring my phone to the toilet! It doesn't even stay in my pocket all day. It is usually lying somewhere in the sitting room when I am at home or on my desk at work. Bringing it to the toilet? That's just ludicrous. That said, mine's not a smartphone, perhaps that's the problem...

It seems like that survey result is not that accurate. Maybe they should take the survey on myLot.

I never tried bringing mg phone in the toilet. LOL Well, since I upgraded my phone to a latest version, I had a problem using the internet on my phone, so I guess that's why I didn't try using my phone at the toilet. hahahha
