I find taking photos with my phone much more accessible to these days. Memory cards, editor programs, just too much of a hassle.

Same goes for me. I also got Snapseed installed which really help with touching up one or two bits, but I rarely use it.

Copying files, starting up Bridge and Photoshop... It just feels so... "stressful", when I just want to take a picture to send to a friend.

While I will share "snapshots" from my phone, I do like to periodically go in, add metadata, curate, lightly edit, organize, etc. photos in Lightroom. It's pretty much the only way to access them in a reasonable way a few years later.

I use the Apple Lightning to USB dongle to attach my camera to my phone and then edit the photos in Darkroom to be able to quickly share with others the photos I just took. The hassle of memory cards and sorting happens later.

Every time I take a photo with my phone I'm disappointed with the result. I'd almost prefer a camera-less phone so I'd be forced to take a proper camera with me.
