About
The No Mobile Phones emoji (📵) is the digital equivalent of a librarian's stern shush, telling everyone to put their devices away and live in the moment. You'll spot this little red circle of phone prohibition in movie theaters, concert venues, and anywhere else where glowing screens are about as welcome as a sneeze in an elevator.
