i can see how cool it would be for sheet music! i personally use paper but i have been considering putting sheet music on my e-ink tablet. personally, if i'm already bringing a bass guitar or clarinet case and music stand, it's easy enough to also bring a tablet sized thing. i don't need it to also be my phone. i like having my phone be just a phone, and as portable as possible. i already have a separate camera and music player and notebook. probably i will get a dumbphone when my iphone dies.

    That’s totally understandable. I sing (I have a violin but I’ve barely touched it in years), so I don’t have to carry an instrument with me anyway. If I do have my choral folder with me I can carry the iPad, no problem, and when I go to rehearsals and stuff I bring it with me and it’s fine. It’s when I’m out and about I sometimes wish I had access to it. It’s definitely not a major use case, but it’s the sort of thing that excites me about the concept. Just the idea of biking to a rehearsal without a bag like, “Oh my phone is good enough” tickles me. 😅

    I definitely get that in your case! I want my phone to be everything in a single device, but I totally get the opposite. My brother-in-law uses a dumb phone and loves it.
