I'm glad! I should have mentioned that my phone is a Motorola Edge 2022
running Android 12 with all available updates, and I imagine that roaming
works fine for lots of people, especially with other phones.

But if it doesn't work flawlessly for someone, I hope they can work out the
problems ...

Best,

Spencer
