My phone has been set up the same way for years (and outdated in a couple of regards), but it wasn't until today that I realized that the calendar app icon actually shows today's date. And I click on this app every day to see what BS meetings I need to pretend to care about, but literally never paid attention to the day on the icon, and just figured it was some random [constant] number. For some reason this morning, it stuck out to me as just being a 1, and then the gears kicked in, and I realized it was the 1st. That number has probably changed 365 days a years for the 3+ years I have had this phone, and I never noticed.

Samsung phones have been that way for a long time. I know my old S8 (2017) does it, because I still use it for a few things (mainly my borescope).

The clock/timer app also has the little hands on it set to the correct time. I noticed that a few years ago and was mildly amused by it. It doesn't take much to make my day. :lol:

Holy s**t! Learn something new every day. I had no idea. I just mainly use my phone to communicate with my wife and refresh RC10Talk all day hoping there is something new and awesome.
Hope you're doin' something fun.

Headed back home, went through Roswell and also hit Route 66 for a few miles just to say I did it.
