What are some of the biggest challenges you face when using your work phone while traveling?

Hey all!

 

Depending on whether I'm traveling domestically or internationally, using my device always comes with its set of challenges. I still find myself grappling with spotty network connections or data shortages, especially when on a train. One of my main concerns is ensuring I have reliable connectivity for scheduled meetings while on the move. There's always that worry that poor signal might prevent me from joining or engaging with presenters during the call.

 

What are some of your biggest challenges and potentially ways you have overcome these when using your phone whilst traveling?.

 

Thanks

Reece

    A consistent mistake I used to make all the time is forgetting to bring a sim ejector while travelling internationally.

      I do this all the time, you've reminded me I need to purchase one for my tech bag. 

       

      Do you not use e-sims when travelling?
