    I’m looking for a small phone just for phone calls, sms, Twitter, and Spotify or (can download music from browser into music app)

    I’d like to use all these functionalities without bis. Is it possible?

    Phone calls and SMS: yes

    Twitter: try UberSocial or dabr. Both worked last time I tried them.

    Spotify: I don't know. It once worked if you had a subscription.

    Without BIS, you won't get data when off WiFi.

    Well, can’t I modify service books so I can use the browser on my data plan without BIS?
    and can I use Uber social and Spotify without BIS

    Maybe, but I'm not aware of how.

    Yes: http://darkstar.x10host.com/nibble/i...view&id_page=4

    As I mentioned before, I'm not sure about Spotify.

    Maybe a Q10 would be a better option?

    If you're going that route, then the best option would be a KEY² or KEY² LE. 🙂

    It's small-ish... When compared with Samsung Note 9, iPhone XS Max, Huawei Mate 20 Pro, Pixel 3XL, & Xiaomi Mi Mix 3. 😁

    Seriously, if OP is ok with using a slab, then go for an iPhone SE or Sony Xperia Compact series.

    I'm using a Q10 and I just pulled out my old 9900 and where OS10 seriously fails is the apps menu options.
    OS10 is not nearly as deep when it comes to the menu functionality for each app.

    Still better for functional apps, lol!

    TuneIn's app works fine on wifi for me with OS7. There's a list somewhere in the BBOS forums of good apps and internet radio stations that will work on BBOS.

    Twitter may or may not work, you can use LogicMail for email. Text and phone should work fine right now.
