So far, this minipurse is working out wonderfully. I wanted something I could grab quickly to run a few errands. If I'm going to be gone for the day, I'll use a larger bag with more stuff, but for a quick run to the grocery store, all I need is my phone, some ID, and a credit card.  See the attached pictures.  In picture #3, I tried to show what's in the little bag.  My Galaxy J7 phone with slim cover (not an Otterbox type), plus some cash, chapstick, eye drops, license, credit card all fit with no problem in the main zippered compartment. I stash a pen on the outside back pocket and use the outside front pocket for my car keys. I also moved the wrist strap from the side to one of the back rings to better balance the purse when I'm carrying it. I haven't used it as a should bag yet, but can't see any problem with that.
