Depends on how far I'm going, quick ride to work or errand - both are in my pocket. Long ride for the day, wallet in saddlebag and phone in fairing charging and playing tunes. When I wore baggier jeans everything went in the saddlebag because I was afraid of things falling out of my pockets

I keep my personal phone mounted on a Quad Lock on the handlebars, although it may break off in a crash. I usually have my work phone in a jacket pocket, and I carry a front pocket wallet.

Both go into the trunk, then locked. I am afraid they will fall off or out while riding, and it is much more comfortable then sitting on the wallet. Phone is on a belt holster, but I just put in there for safety. I lock it so no one can sneak up on me while sitting at a red light in Boston and open the trunk.

Phone on my person in case I'm separated from my bike in a crash, wallet in saddlebag.

My phone, military ID, wallet, keys, garage door opener, etc all go into various zippered pockets of my riding jacket. Which pocket is determined by how easily I want to access it while riding, while stopped at a light, or not at all.

I keep my money clip in my front pocket.

My phone is usually clamped in my quad lock on the windshield, but the thought of it getting taken away with my bike in the event of a wreck hadn't occurred to me, so I'm gonna start keeping it on my person, unless I need GPS or if it needs charged.
