Elon is always obsessed with WeChat’s model. (For those who don’t know about WeChat, it is basically the name of the ‘Everything app’.)

Everything in one single point is pretty convenient but has led to a bunch of risks…

Leave a risk that you know in the comment.

    Putting credit cards in smart phones is not the end of the world by any stretch. Security on this front is constantly developing. Putting it into an everything app run by a guy whose first move after buying Twitter was killing multifactor auth for most of his users isn’t something I would consider wise.

    You might enjoy getting a wallet case though. I keep my ID and debit card in my phone case and the overall profile is pretty much the same, just slightly bulkier.

      Hm, this seems like a good option, the phone wallet I mean. Is this like a special case of some sort? Cuz I have an armor case for my phone and I’d like to keep it that way, cuz I also drop my phone… a lot 😒.

        I wouldn’t say I’m clumsy

        I also drop my phone… a lot 😒

        😅

        You can buy fairly bulky leather cases with place for your entire wallet, with a flip screen cover, and that will probably protect the phone even better than an armor case. Or something else… If there’s one product there’s no shortage of, it’s phone cases. Especially if you have a popular model.

          OK, OK, you got me there 😒.

          😂

          I hate flip covers, it takes forever to see who is ringing.

          I’ll just look for something on AliExpress. I didn’t know phone cases that can hold cards was a thing, otherwise, I would have searched for them earlier.

        I get this brand called teelevo off of Amazon, try searching for that along with wallet case for your phone model. It’s sort of like an armor case with a compartment you can slide a couple of cards into. It’s not as strong as say an OtterBox type of phone armor, but when I drop it it has been the case that cracks if anything. I don’t mind because they are also relatively cheap compared to the alternative

          Aw, man, thanks, this might be exactly what I was looking for ☺️ 👍. Don’t mind if the case breaks either, I can always fix it or just order a new one.
