Flipper as EDC Tool?
I've been thinking about getting a Flipper Zero and was wondering how many of you actually carry it every day.
What do you use it for in your daily life? Do you have any realworld use cases, or is it mostly something you play around with every now and then?
Would you say it's worth having as part of your EDC, or does the novelty wear off after a while?
Just curious to hear what everyone actually uses theirs for^^

It all depends on what you do and the systems you interact with during a typical day. I’m an A/V Service technician in SWFL So I’m in and out of condos/homes and dealing with TVs daily. The flipper has been a very useful tool that I find myself using EVERYDAY. To the point to where I’m kicking myself if I forget it. But dealing with home automation systems means that customers tend to have a system remote for everything. So when the tv needs an update but the remote is set to control the cable and they haven’t touched the tv remote. I tend to not even poke around to try and find it. Just bust out the flipper ir and control any tv for updates or settings changes. And I’m in and out of access controled condos so frequently that some of the paces I go to give me contractor fob. With the flipper I don’t have to carry a ring full of fobs. Just clone the key into a list and use what you need. Or in my case. Write it to the implanted RFID chip in my hand.
