What Is a Phone Necklace?
A phone necklace is a phone case with a strap attached, worn around the neck or across the body so the phone hangs on your chest. You can see it, reach it with one hand, and it goes back to hanging when you are done. Nothing to open, nothing to dig through.
It is the same product sold as a crossbody phone case, a phone case with a strap, a lanyard case or a sling phone case. The only real difference is length: worn short it is a necklace, worn long it is a crossbody. A Keebos strap adjusts across its full 54 inches, so one case is both.
Why People Wear a Phone Necklace
No pockets, or pockets too small to trust
Most women's clothing has no usable pockets, and a lot of men's does not either once a phone gets large. A necklace strap makes the outfit irrelevant. It works the same with leggings, a dress, a suit or gym clothes.
You stop losing and dropping it
Phones get lost in the gap between using one and putting it away: a table, a car seat, the bottom of a bag. Wearing it removes that gap. It also cannot slide out of a pocket when you sit down.
Festivals, concerts and crowds
Bag policies at festivals and venues get stricter every year, and a phone in your hand in a crowd is the easiest thing to lose or have taken. Worn on your chest with your ID and a card in the wallet on the back, you can get in, pay and take photos without carrying a bag at all.
Travel
Passport, boarding pass, card, phone. A necklace case keeps the phone and cards together and on your body, which matters in airports and on public transport where a phone in a hand is a target and a bag is a thing to leave behind.
Dog walking, strollers and full hands
A lead in one hand and a bag in the other leaves nothing for the phone. Same with a stroller, groceries, or a toddler. This is the most common everyday reason people buy one.
It looks like an accessory, not equipment
This is the part that decides it for a lot of people. Straps are interchangeable, from plain cords to gold and onyx chains, so the same case reads as sporty or as jewelry depending on what you clip on. Spare straps start at $24.90.
Is a Phone Necklace Safe to Wear?
The strap is designed to be worn by an adult and detaches from the case in seconds, so you can take it off whenever you want. As with any cord worn around the neck, do not let a child wear it and keep it away from babies and cribs.
For security, wearing the phone is generally safer than carrying it. A phone loose in a hand is the easiest thing to take in a crowd or on a train, and a bag can be set down and forgotten. A case worn across the body is a harder target and cannot be left on a table.

Phone Necklace FAQ
What is a phone necklace?
A phone case with a strap attached, worn around the neck or across the body so the phone hangs on your chest and your hands stay free. It is the same product also sold as a crossbody phone case, a lanyard case or a sling phone case. A Keebos is $49.90 including the case, the adjustable 54 inch strap and a 6 card wallet.
Is a phone necklace the same as a crossbody phone case?
Yes, worn differently. Short it sits high on the chest as a necklace, long it hangs at the hip as a crossbody. The Keebos strap adjusts across its full 54 inches by pulling two cords, so one case covers both without buying anything extra.
Are phone straps safe?
The strap is worn by an adult and detaches in seconds, so it comes off whenever you want. Do not let a child wear it and keep it away from babies and cribs, as with any cord. For theft, wearing the phone is generally safer than holding it, since a phone in a hand is the easiest thing to take in a crowd.
Does a phone necklace hold cards?
A Keebos does. There is a sealable wallet on the back for up to 6 cards plus cash, which is why most people stop carrying a bag for short trips and festivals.
Can you take the strap off?
Yes, it unclips completely, so the same case works as an ordinary phone case whenever you want. Straps are also interchangeable, so you can swap a plain cord for a chain without buying another case.
Which phones does it fit?
iPhone, Samsung Galaxy including the Z Fold and Z Flip, and Google Pixel. Check your exact model in Settings before ordering. If your phone is outside those ranges, the $34.90 universal strap attaches to any case you already own.
How much does a phone necklace cost?
$49.90 for the case with the strap, wallet and finger strap included. Spare and chain straps start at $24.90 and the universal strap is $34.90. US shipping is free.

Hey Becky! Thanks for asking about the pocket on the back of the keebos phone case. After placing your credit cards and cash into the pocket on the back of the case, you just pull the stretchy top material of the pocket over the cards and now everything is sealed and safe :) Please let us know if you have any other questions. You can see it on the product pictures here: https://keebos.com/collections/products-iphone-necklaces/products/iphone-necklace-sunset
Your description says that there’s a sealed pocket on the back .But when you look at pictures it doesn’t look like that . So could you please tell me how this works
