What do you all do on your phones that isn't doom-scrolling or mindless mini games? (beehaw.org)

I find myself checking out pretty often and just making myself feel bad about the state of the world, or killing half an hour on stupid games that I could 100% live without. This is probably pretty common, and I'm wondering what other people have found as a way to do more productive things with their phones in the downtime.

I know that it's more convenient to use a laptop, but i'm always on the move and lugging around a laptop isn't really practical for what i do, plus my current laptop chews trough it's battery in less than an hour, i'd need to be always connected to an outlet to not have the fear of it dying on me; so i just carry a foldable keyboard in my pocket, it's not the best thing in the world but at least it's better than nothing.
