How’d That Phone Get In My Pocket?
If you’ve been able to play after the latest update, then you might have seen a random cell phone in your Sim’s inventory. What’s up with that? The only interaction it has is to ‘destroy’. And what’s weirder is that after you destroy it, it just comes back down the line! How odd.
Reddit user Waddplop brought it to the community’s attention on r/Sims4, curious about what it was and why it was in their inventory. Scrolling through the comments, several other players have faced the same mysterious phone!
Cell phones are now in Sims’ inventories and come with a “Destroy” option!

One comment made by user moonracer91 stated that when gifting the item as a romantic gift, it appeared to be named ‘Slightly Smelly Phone’ and had a description of it belonging to the emissary. Others joked that it was from a secret agent and that it would explode once destroyed. We wonder if the Landgrabbs are behind it!
It obviously has to be part of the latest UI Event, and if you like to use UI extensions to cheat your way through these tasks, so you can get rewards, unknown objects may enter your inventory. Such as the phone. But no worries, we won’t tell!
Though, admittedly, we’re still a little confused. If this is a part of the UI Event, as players believe, why is it not included in the event? And why are a handful of players getting it in their inventory without cheats? If you’ve had this happen and can provide some more information on this, please let us know below!
