Can confirm. Brother had his phone stuck in LA for 2 weeks.

Modern alarm clocks are awful, you only get two options and must be plugged in, so if you want 3 alarms while you're outside of your house? Fuck you.
Harder to track public bus routes as not only can you not call dispatch, you can't check with the app.
