Maybe it's because I have idle chatting (meaningless small talk) modded off, but the three teen sims that I just had chatting paused to get their phone out about 15 times in a three minute conversatio...
@kestrel Agreed, I think phones were fine. You could call, text, play a game, online shop, call vet/adopt, and influencers could make simple social media posts. It did the job for my sims. Now they are always on it!
