I appreciate this as a hack but it:

1) does not sound reliable or easy

2) fails open (if something doesn’t happen, that means something bad happened)

Oh it's absolutely a hack for the better-than-having nothing scenario :)

My main issue was remembering to charge the old phone every few days as I'm not in need of this regularly, so more of an occasional thing like to an unfamiliar place/country, or on a trip to Disney.
