I'd recommend using GreenAddress online compared to just using your phone if you have a laptop/PC.

I agree software wallets in general aren't great, but in what way is using a web wallet going to be safer?

Also, add extra security such as google authentication, sms notification per log ins, withdrawal etc.

SMS is a very poor 2FA method to choose, since text messages are sent unencrypted and can be intercepted, and SIM jacking is fairly easy to perform with a minimal amount of social engineering. You should be using a 2FA app as a minimum, and using something like AndOTP or Aegis instead of Google.

And you should also make sure that your seed pharase is written on a piece of paper as there is a greater chance that it will be detected by the hacker if it is only hidden on your pc.

Your seed phrase should never touch an internet capable device. You should not be saving it or entering it on any device for any reason except when it is your only option to recover your wallet. As soon as it has touched an internet capable device, you should consider it compromised.

cell phones are NEVER considered cold storage because they can easily transmit data.

Exactly. Even when phones are turned off, they can still be tracked or even be used to spy on you. There's plenty of malware out there which can turn on your mobile data or WiFi without your knowledge, and there's even malware which can be distributed via SMS. Unless you have physically removed all the hardware allowing a device to transmit data, then it's not proper cold storage.
