No seriously just before Covid about 2016/2017 there was a surge in people getting rid of their smartphones back to 'dumb phones'. https://www.bing.com/search?q=Why%20I%27m%20going%20back%20to%20a%20dumbphone&qs=n&form=QBRE&sp=-1&pq=why%20i%27m%20going%20back%20to%20a%20dumbphone&sc=0-33&sk=&cvid=645D78A2242A48B3BC3F78BD7EB72F7D
I think the elites didn't like that so they used COVID as an excuse to make it so you literally have to have a phone to do anything such as timed tickets to MOST museums,phone pickup only. A few of our museums don't require timed tickets however........
Just experienced in Corvallis escaping the ice storm once where a pizza place would not let us order without an app so we went to another one and they had no issue and were shocked when we told them how snobby the restaurant was. This place however was happy to serve us unlike the other place and delivered directly to our hotel room at Best Western. The first pizza place should've done that we were even willing to pay an extra fee if necessary.
With a flip phone can you still do the time tickets and silly entry restrictions many museums make you do?
I have literally no idea what you're referring to.
Most museums make you have a timed ticket they send to your phone for entry and I'm not really sure how that works as I don't have a phone nor do timed ticket crap. The Newport Aquarium totally caved in on this as with all Portland based museums though I'm not sure if OMSI is included but the Zoo and Pittock Mansion requires timed entry between visits.
As I said before our air/space museum doesn't enforce it! Neither does any in Astoria Oregon!
