I am a purist and never carry my phone running. I would never be so irresponsible as to plug my ears with headphones. But my wife is getting into running and likes to do all of those things. She runs trails quite a bit and checks maps on her phone for route finding, and listens to books.
What would be the best way for her to carry her phone?
I had to run while I was expecting some important calls in the past. They make phone holder armbands that work ok. They are annoying, but get the job done - but get one that secures well because the cheap velcrot ones wear out pretty fast.
When I jog commuted a for a bit (not every day, so of clothes were shuttled by bicycle or car), I had a waist pack that worked great. Amphipod makes some good ones.
if I’m traveling and want to run with a phone (in case I get lost and need to look up directions) i just carry it in my hand. Sometime I’ll wrap it up in a plastic grocery bag to protect it from rain or perspiration, but that probably isn’t necessary.
Always run with phone in hand and music blasting (I don't wear headphones)
I carry my phone in my pocket.
I run in jeans.
There are half tights you can get with phone pockets that don't flop around
My wife has a SPIbelt to carry her phone (and gels on long runs) and it works really well for her.
Ya'll weaklings ain't got grip strength? Come on now.

I put my phone in a sturdy ziploc baggie (dryness; I sweat) and then carry it in a Nathan Zipster waist pack, which has pockets just big enough for my iPhone 13. Bluetooth bone conducting headphones by Shokz, because I like to be more aware of my surroundings and don’t need a headphone cord snaking up from the pack to my headphones. It’s a pretty good setup.
