Way too much phone action now during chatting

I started new save today (the one I played before was my werewolves save from before update and I changed phone covers for all family members earlier). In this save I have a teen and I left her phone in default cover. The bug with changing cover after loading the game did not occur. Surprisingly this teen also uses phone much less than my sims from older save. It seems that phone is super buggy at this point and it’s hard to tell what was by design and what wasn’t.
