    I’ll feel phantom vibrations on my thigh when my phone isn’t even in my pocket.

    Sometimes I’ll feel a buzz on my thigh, look at the phone on my desk, and then a new notification will come in. That shit freaks me out.

    Of course, they happen the most when you are expecting something.

    Back in the day it was an SMS or a call. Then maybe also an email if you had a good feature phone or a BlackBerry.

    Now everything has an app and they just love notifications…

    yeah, sometimes it vibrates when there’s no notification… which is extremely weird since i have internet access and notification blocked for about any app. Haven’t looked much since it’s not so often tho.

      Same, and I know this is true and not just me being crazy because I’ve heard it rather than felt it when my phone is sitting on my desk.

    Yes.

    Which is odd because, since getting a keychain pedometer I actually don’t keep it in my pocket or take it most places.

    I used to, but oddly it’s stopped. I think it may be around the time I stopped having the ringer on by default, which is odd as the phone still vibrates.
