It’s 2025, and let’s be honest—your phone is basically a body part at this point. But where exactly do people keep theirs?

A new online poll asked people where their phones live throughout the day, and the results are surprisingly specific (and a little weird). The most popular answer? The right pants pocket. A solid 57% of people keep their phone there, making it the undisputed champion of pocket real estate.

The left pocket is a distant second, with 19% of people claiming it. Another 12% toss their phone into a bag—whether that’s a purse, a backpack, or even a good old-fashioned murse. Seven percent go for the back pocket, despite the ongoing fear of sitting on their phone and cracking the screen (or their spine).

And then there’s the wild card: 5% of people said they carry their phone in their underwear. Yes, underwear.

That number might include some jokesters, but several women chimed in to say it’s actually a real workaround. Since women’s clothing often lacks decent pockets, slipping a phone into a bra or waistband becomes a practical solution, especially when you’re at home and don’t want to carry a purse just to move around your own kitchen.

So while the guys are out here enjoying cavernous cargo shorts, some women are basically running an underground phone storage operation.

Moral of the story: if you’re calling someone and it goes straight to voicemail, maybe… give them a minute. Their phone might be very close, just not in any place you’d expect.
