I will. Far simpler, far more secure and far less wasteful than inserting some additional and unrequired LLM loop + hardware/virtualisation layer on top to do something I've already been able to do for years.

You've not yet described anything that literally 99% of the population can not already do with the existing hardware and software in their pocket.

> Far simpler

And far less capable. I have a whole system for managing TODOs, notes, etc, and I've not found an app that fits my needs (especially given that the system evolves over time).

But I agree - if you have a flow that works great for you with just a phone, then I wouldn't recommend OpenClaw for that use case.

And in the early days, literally everyone I knew who owned an iPhone also owned a digital camera and a laptop. Why pay some crazy amount for a fancy phone?
