They're promoted as a way to keep a long distance relationship going

I'm curious, what's the supposed effect?

It just lets one person know the other person is thinking about them, but without the arduous burden of sending a text. "I love you but typing. is. haaard. So I'll just touch this lamp lol."

Hmm, I think I get it now, it does seem a bit easier looking at it that way

I read and agree with the other comment here, but it's mainly a kind of nonverbal communication. I linked our computers and gave my gf the ability to change my background whenever she wanted, wherever she was, and vice versa. it's just a way of being close and all up in each other's business when we can't get all up in each other's business.
