Where do you carry your mobile?

The mobile holder that attaches to my belt has broken, so I need to get something else. Maybe I should get something different next time.

I find putting a phone in my pocket too bulky and uncomfortable. Some people attach them to their leg or arm.

Where do you put yours?
 
Usually inside jacket pocket- or if i'm not wearing a jacket/gilet I have one of those things that straps to your arm.

Looks a bit twattish.....but needs must.... I don't like being dug in the groin if I shove it in my breeches pocket.
 
Used to have one of those mobile holders, but my phone doesn't fit in it now.

I make a point of only ever buying jods with a good zip pocket now. Just saves so much hassle.
 
In my pocket generally, or in the top of my boot.

In your bra!!! lol

There would be more phone than boobs in my bra if i done that!! :D:p
 
If I'm not wearing a coat I usually just tuck it into my Jodhpur waist band, most of the time it stays put but sometimes it heads south :o :o :D
 
Annoyingly my summer jods don't have a zip on the pocket so i have a little cross over bag just big enought to hold a phone and some treats. I put that on first, followed by my BP - so it doesn't fly about orfall down my shoulder.

If ever forget that, then i have to stuff it down my bra, as I now refuse to ride alone without one - it stays in place with the BP over the top - but gets a little sweaty; not nice!

Edited to say: prob stating the obvious here, but the above is only if I don't have a jacket on - otherwise obviously it goes in my jacket pocket.

I have one of those phone holders to go round your arm, except my arms are weedy and skinny so I have it round the top of my calf lol! If it's raining I have it in my jacket pocket.

That's a good idea as it's particularly out hacking that it needs to be safe yet accessible.

City Mare, if you fell off and were alone and injured, I'm not sure how easily you would be able to access the phone from beneath your BP.
 
I used to have one of those phone holders that velcros round wherever, always wore it on my calf but it annoyed me.

Usually in a zip pocket of jacket/gilet. I have a wee pouch in my hi viz tabard which is handy :D difficult when its warm tho as it doesnt fit in jod pockets?!

If your alone and knocked out wouldn't make any difference where the phone was anyway.

Whereever you put it, if you are alone and fallen on it and broken it, again no use.

My boobs wouldn't protect anything if it was in my bra!!!!!:D
 
Mine goes in my jacket or gillet pocket and I make sure I wear one or the other when hacking. Schooling I'm happy to leave it on the wall or in my tack box.

The phone holders don't fit my huge phone! Don't have space in my bra either!

I want to get a hi viz with a pocket for hacking. Then I'll be ultra safe!
 
In my bra.

However be warned.....I had a bad fall a few years back. I was unable to get to my phone. The person who came to rescue me needed to call for an ambulance but her phone was flat. So cue one random stranger rummaging around in my bra!!

I still carry it in my bra :)
 
I've got one of those arm things, but its a slightly bigger one than for just a phone so I can fit my inhaler in it too. About to buy one of those equisafety hi vis though as it has a pocket in it (mine is just a building site hi vis - no pockets) as find the arm thing a bit annoying occasionally and can get a bit warm underneath when its really really hot!
 
I love how a good bra conversation can cheer a girl up!

My phone goes in the jacket pocket during the winter, or bra/waistband in the summer. I might try the top-of-the-boot suggestion, however if we get a bit of a bounce going it might fly out! They're a pain in the bottom, but I wouldn't go hacking without one.
