Could you disconnect from your phone in order to reconnect with your family? For some this task would be no problem, for others it sounds like the worst idea ever. If you struggle to pry yourself away from your phone for even an entire meal there is an app to help you get started.

The Dinner Mode App allows the user to set the time desired you wish to attempt being unchained from your phone. Then the user is instructed to place the phone upside down. If you make it through your goal time without checking your phone the app will congratulate you. But if you can't resist the temptation to even turn your phone over, a big red plate appears to let you know you have failed.

If paying attention to your phone more than people is something you struggle with, bringing in an outside source like this app to help you discipline yourself might be worth looking into. Besides no one will get to old age reflecting on life wishing they would have checked their phone more. But I'm sure there will be some wishing they would have been more present in other people's presence while we had the chance.
