But what do you actually need in the first place? I mean it, all the stuff you mentioned I've never touched on a phone, how much worse would your life be without them?
You definitely don't need any programming learning apps to learn programming, I know that because I've personally done it. AI chats serve what purpose? Can't you chat with real people? Art generators for what? What did you do before you were able to generate art? Audio and video editing on a phone means you can't be doing this professionally, what are you actually editing? Why not do it on an older laptop with larger screen that actually has access to open source apps that do this properly and almost as good as professional proprietary software?
