A usefull tool to combat social anxiety, the awkwardness of a blind date gone wrong , or even just to make you look busy and cool. You either pretend to be talking on your phone or call a friend and ask them to be your phone crutch
Hey bro , if this date goes wrong , I’m gonna call you to be my phone crutch k ? 2. Everyone’s looking at me at the DMV! Be my phone crutch u til my number gets called !!

The modern version of jaw-dropping. When someone's comment or fetching good looks causes you to metaphorically or literally drop your phone.

When you're talking on the phone, want to end the call, drop a hint, but the other person keeps talking and stretching the call out. You say things like "I should be going", you no longer consent to the conversation continuing, but the other person tries to start a new topic or keep you on the line. The person in question is often a loved one who means well, but it's nonetheless really annoying because your time is being disrespected.
I called my friend but I was getting phone rape because she wouldn't shut up when I repeatedly said I had to go.

The incessant need to check your device every 5 minutes no nothing's going on (usually pertains to smartphones but other electronic devices can apply)

Guy 2: uh oh Joe has new phones disease.
Dude 1 : God help us he needs treatment.
