How can I utilise my old Android device?

I have a moto g2 lying around for some years. I was wondering if there is anything I can use it for?

I don't plan on inserting a SIM card on it and the battery capacity on it must have reduced quite a lot by now.

Can you suggest some ideas which can prevent it from becoming e-waste? (If it hasn't already become e-waste)

I like the security cam idea.

I just used the Alfred app when I left my house and it works great even accessing from an iphone. Lots of features are pretty much free like recording and speaking/listening through the camera, there's just a bunch of ads and you can only view it through one device simultaneously.

I've also tried this and was impressed by how well it worked. Image quality can be significantly better than most dedicated security cameras.
