Absolutely not, lol; It's the opposite. I have a keychain one that I'm too lazy to remove. And it actually twists and gets caught in the holes on adjacent keys, so it's not like I never notice it!
I have some smart devices that came with these so I appear very responsible.
Just keep it in the box the phone came in with all the warranty documentation. I've never lost one of these
Same. And in the past decade plus of using smartphones, I've never had to open the slot except to install the SIM card for the first time. Why do I even keep it around?
I miss sim slots.
Inside my phone case. Only makes sense to keep it with the phone.
Yes, I keep them in the box.
Yep I have 2 on a small o-ring with a usb memory stick I use.
or a hoarder
false ; I bought a 50 pack
Planning ahead? Sounds pretty responsible to me
😅
I keep one in my keychain for the random instances I need one, especially when I'm away from home.
It's come in handy more than I thought it would.
I did that until it left a hole in my thigh. Now I have one in my desk drawer and center console.
Lies and slander. I have several, specifically because I am not responsible and lose things often.
I have more than one. The key is the word somewhere.
Oh really? I didnt know that, yes I still do and it's only one I have
I can confirm that this is false
I probably have like 3 or 4
I bought a multi tool that has one of these built in.
I stick them in a cork board.
I have the ifixit screwdriver kit and one of the bits is a Sim card ejector. Does it count ?
on my keychain with a set of handcuff keys and some earplugs lol
One can never be too prepared. "Prepared for what?" is the question.
You sound fun.
I have mine under my phone cover. Got sick of losing them all the time when I needed one. Since I put it under the cover, I've only needed it about two times. (Under my cover for over a year).
You only need it when setting up a new phone. So once you put the card in, you put the tool back in the phone’s box and just stick that in a closet.
So I’m asking… how CAN you even misplace one of those?
Like seven a drawer somewhere. I don't know where though
I have three downstairs in the garage, now the real question is... Where in the garage tho.
I have a small zip bag of 100+ of these in a drawer. Sometimes you gotta pop out a SIM card. Other times you gotta hit a pinhole reset button to fix a rogue router. In a pinch, they're also a good shiv or shank.
I still have like eight of those. I bought some smart devices a while ago that all had them for the reset hole, so I’m stocked up for life.
Why thank you.
Ive always just used a hair pick when I cant find it 😂
it's within my phone's protection case, so i do have it right now. Also, anecdote, a random stranger on a bus was switching sim cards, and asked me if I have the tool, which I indeed I had!
I'm sure I have it in a box somewhere, but paperclips open up SIM slots just as well as SIM tools do.
Laughs in paper clip
As foretold 🙏
