    So you take an apparatus with you every time you use the bathroom away from home? I’m not judging, I’m just genuinely curious about how that works

      They are small. It’s like taking a phone around with you. For me they are not sufficient as a TP substitute but as an adjunct. I am partial to the Toto motorized one.

        What about splashback? Do they need to be cleaned? How does one transport them? I love bidets, but I’d feel icky tossing a portable one in a backpack along with my lunch…

          Keeps in a bag. Propels stream at an angle and waste water falls vertically down, so it’s not getting directly bathed in waste. It folds up and tip is concealed. I just wipe down tip with some TP.

            It goes on the rim and hangs inside the toilet bowl, right? That thing is festering with shit particles if so.

              No. Look up portable bidets. Many options but I don’t think any are like that
