Remember when transactions were slow and expensive on the last bull run(2017)?

Have you not updated it since 2015? It has Segwit and full fee control. It's still my mobile wallet of choice.

Yes, updated it, on my Iphone, it has these fee options: low priority, Economy,Normal and priority in ascending order of charge. Still they will automatically bring a higher fee even though I choose low priority.

Ah. There's your problem. Mycelium on iOS is basically dead and abandoned. Only the Android version is developed these days. You definitely need to drop Mycelium and find another wallet if you're staying with Apple.

I think that the one thing that people will benefit from regardless of whether they choose to adopt Segwit (which they should, for their own sake of saving further on transaction costs), or not that you didn't mention in the OP but others above have mentioned is consolidating inputs.

I personally have saved probably tens of dollars by simply merging small inputs in my wallet when the fees are low and when I'm not in a rush for confirmations, and as a result, being able to pay less transaction fees when the markets are overheated.

This works even when overall network fees are high. Since if you are not in a rush, even in a high-fee network, you're capable of choosing a lower fee and wait for confirmations. Essentially, it's almost like speculating on fees.

But anyways, I echo the sentiment of others who say that this bull market will likely to see much less fee fluctuations, but you may still take these steps to be prudent.
