I don’t even keep my phone in my pocket when exercising because of the humidity from sweating. If I’m hiking it either goes in my pack or in a ziplock to protect it.
I haven’t found that to be a problem if I put it screen side in. Except for the sweat on the screen. I’ve had sweat on the camera side get into the camera. I like to have it convenient to snap a picture quickly, like if there’s some wildlife.
