For sure not having a smartphone mean also living without the comfort and the easy access. Try to achieve something that seems impossible without tech I think is the mean cure of the lack of skills you mean before.

No I mean it's actually not possible to do some of the stuff I needed for school. The only way to access financial aid is joining a queue from online. While at the the office. Nobody is in it to ask.

Similarly I couldn't access my accounts on campus since I did not have the app that's on my phone.
