I have a bunch of spare Android phones, what could I use them for? I need to figure out power management too. I have a few ideas:

Can I use the sensors like for home assistant? I was thinking of using it possibly as a video camera and/or audio transcriber. I don’t know what it needs to run whisper but it be cool even if it streamed the audio to my server.

Syncing a reader application for my place in books.

I remember someone ran a server off these too but mine don’t have that much ram.

Anyone have good uses they have from their phones?
