Frequently Asked Questions

PHLOOP is a bracelet phone holder - a wearable wrist accessory that keeps your smartphone tethered to your wrist so it can never drop or be lost. You wear the silicone or stainless steel bracelet like any other jewellery; when you need phone security, you clip the elastic cord from the bracelet to the slim tether tab tucked inside your phone case. PHLOOP works silently in the background - invisible when idle, drop-proof when active.

Yes. PHLOOP works with any smartphone in a case that is closed at the bottom - iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, OnePlus, Google Pixel, Vivo, OPPO, Redmi, Realme, and more. The slim tether tab tucks inside your case with its metal loop sitting at the charging port - no adhesive on your phone at all, so there is zero risk to your device finish.

A PopSocket or LoveHandle gives you a better finger grip, but you still have to actively hold your phone - if you open your hand, the phone drops. PHLOOP is a true wrist tether: the elastic cord keeps the phone attached to your wrist even if you completely let go. Additionally, PopSockets use adhesive that leaves residue and can block wireless charging. PHLOOP uses no adhesive at all - the tether tab simply tucks inside your case - and does not interfere with wireless charging.

No. A phone lanyard hangs around your neck and dangles visibly - it looks like a gadget accessory. PHLOOP is a bracelet first: it sits on your wrist and looks like standard jewellery with no dangling cord when idle. When you clip in, the short elastic cord goes wrist-to-phone, not neck-to-phone, so it stays discreet and out of the way. It is a far more comfortable and stylish alternative to traditional phone lanyards.

PHLOOP is a wrist-worn phone holder - more secure than a phone grip because it does not rely on your fingers at all. Traditional phone grips (rings, popsockets, straps) reduce drop risk but do not eliminate it. PHLOOP eliminates it: your phone is physically tethered to your wrist with a 316L stainless steel clasp, so even if you completely open your hand your phone stays with you.

The PHLOOP elastic tether cord is a 10 kg-rated high-stretch cord - about 50 times a phone's weight. It connects to the tab through a 360° swivel stainless steel lobster clasp. In everyday use, the cord stretches slightly to absorb shock if the phone slips, then holds firm.

Yes. The tether tab is paper-slim and sits inside your case with its metal loop resting beside the charging port - the port stays fully open for wired charging, and the tab is thin enough that wireless charging works normally too. No adhesive, nothing blocked; charge exactly as you always do.

Both hold your phone exactly the same way - the same 10 kg-rated tether and 316L steel clasp. Active Silicone (₹499) is feather-light and sweat-friendly, made for the gym, the commute and everyday rough use. Elite Stainless Steel (₹599) is polished 316L steel with a jewellery-grade finish for a dressier look. Many people keep one of each - Silicone for weekdays, Steel for evenings.

PHLOOP is adjustable and fits wrists up to 22 cm, which covers most adult wrists. Quick check before ordering: wrap a measuring tape or a piece of string around your wrist - if it reads 22 cm or less, you are set. The band adjusts for a snug, comfortable fit that stays put without pinching.

That is the point - they will not. Unclipped, PHLOOP reads as a clean, minimal bracelet; nobody can tell it holds your phone. Clipped in, the slim cord sits low and quiet - no bulky straps, nothing that screams gadget. Most people only notice PHLOOP on the day it saves your phone.

Yes - the PHLOOP bracelet (band, cord, and clasp) is water and splash resistant, so it easily shrugs off rain, sweat, and splashes at the pool or beach. This is exactly the scenario PHLOOP was designed for: near water, if your phone slips from your hand, the tether holds it before it reaches the water. The 316L stainless steel clasp is corrosion-resistant and will not rust.

Yes. The Active Silicone band is made from hypoallergenic medical-grade silicone - the same material used in medical wristbands. It is lightweight (28 g total), adjustable, and does not trap sweat. The Elite Stainless Steel band uses a polished 316L stainless steel strap that is skin-safe and nickel-tested. Both are designed for all-day wear.

Yes. Your PHLOOP comes with one tether tab in the box. When you switch phone cases, simply move that tab into your new case - it tucks inside, no adhesive needed. The bracelet and cord are universal - only the tab moves. Extra tab packs are available separately on our store if you would like a spare.

Yes - this is one of PHLOOP's best use cases. The Active Silicone variant is sweat-resistant and stays comfortable during intense workouts. Clip your phone in when you need it for music or tracking, and let it hang safely from your wrist. Unlike an armband, PHLOOP keeps your phone within easy reach without restricting arm movement.

A phone tether tab is the slim anchor that connects the PHLOOP cord to your phone. It tucks inside your phone case, behind the phone, with its metal loop coming out at the charging (Type-C) port - no adhesive at all. Your case holds it securely in place, so it works with any case that is closed at the bottom. You clip the lobster clasp on the PHLOOP cord into the tab's loop in one click, and removal is clean with no residue.

PHLOOP Active Silicone is priced at ₹499 for launch (₹599 after launch; MRP ₹999) and PHLOOP Elite Stainless Steel at ₹599 (MRP ₹1199). Both include free shipping across India - metros typically receive orders in 3-5 business days and other cities in 5-7 business days. There are no hidden charges.
