Give Your Old Android Phone a New Life: Creative Uses

Many people have old Android phones sitting in drawers, gathering dust. But these devices still have plenty of life left in them. Tech expert Kurt Knutsson, known as "CyberGuy," suggests several ways to give your old Android a new purpose.

One popular option is to turn your old phone into a security camera. By downloading a free app, you can monitor your home or office remotely. Another idea is to use it as a dedicated music player, freeing up space on your primary phone. You can also use it as a smart home remote to control lights, thermostats, and other devices.

Before repurposing your phone, remember to factory reset it to remove personal data. Also, ensure it's connected to Wi-Fi. With a little creativity, you can transform your old Android into a useful tool and avoid unnecessary electronic waste. Reusing old tech is good for your wallet and the environment.
