Method 1: Case with Eyelets — cleanest solution
A case with eyelets has two metal rings built in. Clip the strap directly.
- Remove current case.
- Put on new case with eyelets (our Clear Case with Eyelets fits iPhone 7-17 Pro).
- Clip carabiner into left eyelet.
- Clip second carabiner into right eyelet.
- Done.
Method 2: Universal Holder — keep your case
A universal holder sticks between current case and phone. Has one eyelet on the side.
- Remove case.
- Peel adhesive strip.
- Place holder — eyelet up or side.
- Wait 24 hours for adhesive to cure.
- Clip strap.
Method 3: Adhesive Patch
An adhesive 2-eyelet adapter is a small plate with two eyelets that sticks directly to phone or case.
- Clean surface with alcohol pad.
- Peel adhesive.
- Apply patch.
- Wait 24 hours.
- Clip strap into eyelets.
How to Attach a Phone Strap on Samsung
Same mechanics. Samsung Galaxy S20-S25 works with all three methods.
Common Mistakes
- Plastic eyelets instead of metal — tear at 1-2 kg.
- Adhesive loaded too early — needs 24h cure.
- Wrong case size — 15 Pro is not 15 Pro Max.
