I usually listen to a podcast in the shower - bought a cheap shower phone holder on Amazon. Sometimes I browse ~~~reddit~~~ Lemmy in the shower - phone is just held in front of me a bit to keep it out of the water, works fine.

I hold my phone in one hand, out of the stream of water, and browse ~~Reddit~~Lemmy, Twitter, YouTube, whatever I feel like browsing. During this time, I'm not cleaning myself, I'm just standing, enjoying the hot water, and reading whatever I'm reading.

With that said, I've stopped doing this because it's a huge waste of water and money.

I sometimes listen to music or watch videos in the shower. I double-bag it in clear plastic bags, and then put it in a safe location. When I change songs or videos, I‌ can interact with the screen like normal. Maybe it's just my phone or the plastic bags I use--maybe both?

I use something like below, minus the ziplock:

I suppose there are actual products meant for making phones more waterproof in these situations, but I didn't bother looking for those.

I put on a YouTube video and listen like a podcast. Mostly because it acts like a timer because I’ll spend way too long in there

I prop mine up on one of my little shelves outside the stream of water and put videos on. One of the streaming apps has an ability to block touch input, which is great to avoid splashes of water setting off the screen. I have a lot of hair that likes to rats nest when wet and I get easily bored & don't enjoy being in my own mind, so putting on a show helps.
