@loop0 Holstered on left hip.
@loop0

My phone's almost always in my right pocket for safe-keeping, but when I'm using it a lot I tend to move it to the back pocket for easier access.
@loop0 thigh pocket. Whichever side fits best.
@loop0 front pocket (dungarees)

@loop0

I'm ambi-pocket with a tendency towards leftism.

I'm definitely not a back pocket weirdo, & resent the suggestion... 😂

Actually, I'd be scared I'd break it if it was in the back pocket. 🤷‍♂️

@loop0 Pocket? What's that?
@loop0 Phone goes in right pocket, wallet in back pocket. Keys and miscellaneous items in the left pocket. Anything else is extremely uncomfy.
@loop0 Clarification: Shirt pocket, which is always on the left.

@loop0 depends:

Purse: purse
Cargo pants, no purse: front left pocket
Any other pants that have pockets: back pocket
None of the above: bra or underwear

@natasha

Good catch @alice
I oversimplified my answer to fit the options.
I forgot that boot shaft is useful when no purse and skirts or leggings.

@loop0

@loop0 I am a "Throw that fucking phone as far away as possible, it goes to messages anyway" kind of person.
@loop0 Left handed, so left pocket. No pocket? Purse/bag/belt holster that I keep to the left.
@loop0 I'm a leave my phone at home kind of person, much to the annoyance of everyone else.
@loop0 This account is just a front for Big Pickpocket harvesting our pocket data for easier access.
@loop0 are you trying to pick my pocket?
@loop0 right pocket has my keys, keys don't play with a screen - and they have been there a lot longer.
Back pocket would be way to dangerous 😅
@loop0 Coat / shirt pocket

@loop0 right pocket then transitioned to back pocket because my side pockets inexplicably shrunk.

Ok I'm lying it's very explicable, but left as an exercise for the reader.

@loop0 pockets in the majority of jeans/trousers cut for women are tiny, which means back pockets only. Fucking patriarchy.
@loop0 Too Big to Pocket
(so goes on the related side on the belt when is not in a bag).
@loop0 @alice I’m more of a front pocket person. I wear overalls a lot of the time.
@loop0 ehm, I try to not put my phone in my back pocket. Then right front seems somewhat more logical logical place.
@loop0 Left back pocket, to be precise.
@loop0 left-handed, right front pocket.

@leberschnitzel @loop0 Same here.

Wondering if the preferred pocket is handedness-related.

@peter_slwk @leberschnitzel I’m team left pocket and I’m right handed
@peter_slwk I've seen some posts saying they are left handed and left pocketed, so I don't know 😅 @loop0
@leberschnitzel @peter_slwk my rationale is that the hand with more dexterity should be used for the pocket with wallet and keys, because it prevents dropping things by mistake, whereas the phone is a chunk big enough for the hand with less dexterity to deal with at the left pocket
@loop0 @leberschnitzel Exactly the same reasoning for me. Keys and wallet left and my 'mildly useless' right hand can handle the phone.
@peter_slwk @leberschnitzel I think we’re on to something here! 🤣
@loop0
For me it's situational. At home, I tend towards right pocket. At work, I put it in my left rear pocket because I end up throwing tools in my front pockets. Finally, depending on which pocket knife I'm carrying, I may put my phone in my front left pocket for ease of access.
@loop0
Either. No preference. Phone goes in one pocket, keys and all the other stuff goes in the other. I switch from time to time.
@loop0 @Binder left in my pants, but right in an inner jacket pocket.
@loop0
Right cargo pocket, left breast pocket. Never in waist or hip pockets.
@loop0 I use my phone more than my keys, so phone goes in right pocket while keys go in left pocket.

@loop0 pretty close in the end

I wonder if there is any link to handedness?

I'm right handed, left pocket

@HardBeingGreen same here, right handed left pocket

@loop0 @MelissaBearTrix
If I’m wearing a jumper/jacket with a zip-up breast pocket, that is where it goes.

If not, LHF trouser pocket or LHR trouser pocket.
