People tend to feel excluded and their mood suffers when they're being ignored in favor of someone's phone. And frequently being phubbed by a romantic partner creates conflict and leads to lower relationship satisfaction.

Phones are also distracting, making it difficult for people to fully attend to whatever else is going in their environment.
