Disappointing results so far. I was counting on using this poll as conclusive evidence in a marital dispute.

If my wife goes out of town, I disconnect the ring doorbell.
Download the app then turn off location and claim its cos it eats too much battery.

Whatâs your argument against it/reluctance?
I was initially hesitant but my wife and I also have it.
It is helpful when you are waiting on one another and can see where they are how far etc.
(Mainly me that takes long). Also she knows for sure when Iâve left work. It works quite well tbh

Iâm a solution focused individual.
My other half and I do it temporarily through WhatsApp if thereâs a need, like if itâs going to take ages to get home or one of us is travelling a long way. Iâve never really considered doing it at all times and Iâm not sure why we would.
Non-issue. We donât have phones.
Being the only Android on my other halfâs side who are all iPhone, they couldnât find my me if they wanted to.

This is AI generated and its actually decent
We are so cooked
This feels like a really big deal. A worrying trend with the fall of the traditional film studios and rise of the streaming services. It feels like the new world will be dominated by Netflix, Amazon and Disney. Iâm not sure I like this new world!
I reckon the exact same things were said when WB took over some other studios back in the day. Tis just the way these things go.
Fair point, but the difference now is that these companies are not the main players in film/tv, they are starting to dominate everything!
Stand by for the subscription hike from the nice folks at Netflix.

I think it depends where in the market are you.
If youâre some Sky loyalist(they used to have all the HBO stuff) that doesnât have Netflix and likes going to the movies youâre in for some major shift.
If youâre someone who uses Netflix as their primary source of entertainment and doesnât go to the movies much, youâll probably benefit heavily out of this.
Iâm personally in-between. Dropped Sky a long time ago(although HBO Max was coming to the UK next year anyway), use Netflix as my primary entertainment platform, however, going to the movies is near and dear to me and this will only accelerate their demise.
And I havenât even mentioned physical media. If youâre some old school head that still itâs into that, thatâs dead, itâs over.
Everything becomes a big monopoly in the end anyway, may as well go the way of âleft-fieldâ free options instead. The amount of money/platforms you need to watch a TV show nowadays is ridiculous.
Also, the poxy adverts. We pay for prime and any show we watch, even if it is a 20~ run time, has roughly x3 two-minute-plus advert breaks. We bought the entire series of Dexter last weekend from CEX for ÂŁ20 and have had a much better experience.
