Fitbit can track steps, it can't call for help.

If your health is that iffy, perhaps you should get a treadmill and stay home.

My health is just fine, thanks for your concern. Does being this rude come naturally to you or do you have to work at it?

Don't be silly. Anyone can have an accident no matter what health! Also, What if you see someone else that needs help?

This! It's not just about me and my own health has nothing to do with tripping over a rock, getting hit by a car, or seeing someone else have an accident. My friend was walking a trail by her house and a rattlesnake bit her. Her health had nothing to do with that. She didn't have a phone on her and had to shout for help and try to climb the hill back to the house so they could hear her.

If you're out there without your own phone, instead of being critical you should be thrilled that some of us are carrying ours because we might be the ones who help you if you're ever in need.

No kidding.

I got a pouch that you put around your waist and I use that sometimes when I walk, but I just usually wear shorts that have pockets so I can carry my phone. I carry my phone when I walk in case something happens and I need assistance not to make phone calls, its for protection. If you go to a sporting goods store you should be able to find something - good luck.

mima... you might have seen this one...

What are the dimensions? I am interested in this phone... it must be more like a pad...

3 1/2 by almost 6 1/2 with a Trident Cyclops case on it which is a great case. I don't want to have to take the case on and off since it isn't easy to take off. Thanks for the suggestion, but don't want to hold it with a wrist strap. Now that I'm looking at the pic, do you wear it around your neck? No I didn't see that. Is 6M the brand?

YES, it is a big phone, but I love it. It is not too big to talk on at all. That's what I was worried about before I bought it.

Edit: I found a case like this for big phones like the Samsung Note 2/3 and the Samsung Mega. I think you could put it on a Lanyard and wear it around your neck. PLUS you could use it if you needed to without removing it from the bag. It would be waterproof too!

This might be the answer.

Check tridentcase.com for a holster for your case that will clip on your wasteband. Or find another case that has a holster. I have the Note 3 as well and have the otterbox defender with a holster

The lanyard sounds like a good option for you, mima! I like excuses to buy Vera Bradley stuff, and I do like their lanyards... can always feel them in my purse when reaching in, for some reason! They are called "break-away" lanyards... I don't know what this means. They have a ring and a hook...

Thanks for the suggestion. Upon looking at my Trident case, I do see two little holes that I could hook a lanyard into. I'm thinking that would be great and a cheap fix! Not sure how I'd like the phone bouncing around.

To use the holsters, don't you have to have a firm waistband? I wear yoga pants which are stretchy. Thanks for the idea.
