The Prop Tart is a genius design and I have appreciated having one for over a year! My one wish is that it would come with the loop one size slightly larger to accommodate my bumpy arthritic fingers! I imagine many male hands could also benefit from a larger loop.

Start with dark Gripzilla, add a colorful Prop Tart, then a surprise trip whitewater rafting thru the washer. Yes I did. But NO DAMAGE. Just look at it!! I’ve long bragged about this sturdy stick-on loop to friends, but now I burden total strangers with my story. Takes a lickin’ and keeps on STICKin’!!!

I've had this on my phone for about 9 months now and it's absolutely my favorite. I tried a lot of different rings and grips in the past, and they all end up wearing out and breaking after a few months. The prop tart is still going strong! It is easy to open and close, and is comfortable even after long use. The only improvement that I would love to see is to make it detachable so I can use wireless charging, but that's pretty minor. Highly recommend this!

I like how it looks with my Smartish case. Also their customer service was amazing I didn’t get any hassle getting a replacement when my old one failed. Thanks a lot.

Helps relieve pain in my hand. Fits my purse pocket better than a socket.
Robert F.
Sticks to the case no issues. Don't think itll last long.

I thought I wasn’t going to like it. But I like it. I’ve been a loyal customer back when they were silkish or was it silk?

I bought the Smartish case in blue for my iPhone 8, the biggest selling point was the hidden slot that holds my credit card and driver’s license tightly. Didn’t have to carry a purse for a wallet and phone after that, but needed a handle-type device for the phone case so I got the Smartish pop tart to go with my blue Smartish phone case. It works great. The pop tart loop adheres quickly and stays on tight. It also works great as a tripod. Love both of them! Got the blue color so that my phone would be easily recognizable. Also great price and arrived quickly.

I had to use super glue to stick it on my case which is one of those beveled cases. After that it's been perfect and I've had no problems. I'm sure if you have a case that's flat you'll be fine though.

Easy to install, stores flat so its nice to carry, liked the color.

I had to double check the product description on Smartish before I wrote my review. If you prefer wireless charging this is not compatible. Otherwise I like it so far. Seems to be sturdy and grip well otherwise

I've been an committed popsocket user for a long time and decided to switch things up. I have tried other products in search of something more durable than the pop socket with the ability to prop up my giant phone. This is it! It props up really well, and using the grip with two fingers I am easily able to swipe across the screen with ease. I used to use two pop sockets to handle the weight of my Samsung note. It's also really easy to retract and pull out. Goes great with my smartish case as well!

Very happy to report that the adhesive, grips the phone, as if it was a part of the phone itself. The stand is well made. I love this thing.
Amaysnwife
I love the prop tart! It matched the Smartish case I bought perfectly. It feels sturdy and the grip is so much better than other products I’ve tried previously. Great product and the packaging is cool!

Most pop rings or pop sockets fall apart for me within two or three months because I fiddle with them so much. This lasted well over a year, and now I am buying another one because I was so pleased with it. This is more comfortable than other caterpillar styles that I’ve had before, and the grip is very secure.
Richard
Used it for a few days without issues, until i realised it was affecting my galaxy note spen.Had to yank it off, but its really good produt otherwise.
Linda B.
I like that this gripper folds flat, so it fits in pocket or purse easily. Two fingers fit through the strap, leaving others free, giving a secure hold. I can fit a small carabiner around it, too, so I can attach keys when I want. Mine is attached to a wallet case made by the same company, so all together I often don’t need to carry a purse. It’s sturdy, sticks tight, holds up well.
Soulshinebaby1
This adheres really well to my iPhone 13 Pro case. It is easy to hold and it does well when you want to prop your phone on the side or use it for extra security when holding. It adds a slight bulk to your iPhone case but not bad. It will still slip into pockets easily.Seems to be well-made so far.
Amber D.
I’ve used an iring on my phone for some time and thought I’d never use anything else. But this is way more comfortable. I have an iPhone 13 pro, so it’s too heavy. Horizontally, it works well as a kickstand (with the loop placed up so it’s center). Vertically, it works but isn’t as sturdy. It does prop my phone up, but it wobbles if I’m not careful when scrolling. Overall, it’s great. Just make sure to place it as high up as you can if your phone is top heavy.
Theresa R.
I’ve purchased this three times now. It sticks to the back of a phone case very well. The only time it didn’t was when my infant kept pulling at it and playing with it.I got a new case so I had to get my new prop tart. Even though I think I placed it in a not ideal/not entirely comfortable spot this go around, it’s still my favorite and I will keep purchasing.
N33C
I’ve loved this finger loop for my iPhone 11 but for my iPhone 13 pro max it’s a nightmare. Had to order another one so I can figure out how to use the kick stand without the phone toppling over while watching a movie or a YouTube video. Super disappointing. I’ll figure it out though cause this company is amazing just wish the loop was bigger to hold up the 13 pro max.
Joey B.
It works okay but you have to position it in just the right place for it to properly act as a phone stand. After a while the texture of it also started to bother me. Has a sort of cheap gritty feel to it. And the adhesion will wear off if you try to reposition it too much. Went with the shinjimoru MagSafe 3 in 1 wallet and have no regrets with that
nawaf
Excellent I recommend it

Definitely get this if you get the case …very solid, durable!

Been using this for my Surface Duo 2 and it's been holding up pretty well. Easy to apply and sticks on tight. Would recommend it for any other phone besides the Duo 2. (It's a little too thick to fold back properly but it's not going to be an issue 99% of buyers will run into.)

I bought this out of desperation. The one I usually buy wasn't in stock. I had planned to use this only until the other came in. I love this one. There's no elastic to get stretched out & it's perfect. It's been holding really well. There's a little wear on either side of the strap but it's not effecting the way the handle works & I use this every time I have my phone in my hand. I'll definitely buy this again!
Smartish Customer
Seems good so far. Make sure you center it so it works as a stand. Helps me not to drop my phone!

I bought mine Dec 30. 2019, am just now buying another one because the adhesive dried out and split the inside of it, but it's still glued to the back of my phone (easy to take off). These last, are sleek, and fit neat, and it's $10. Maybe start to bulge out to use but just slide it back in

When added to the Gorilla Grip phone case, the phone will no longer charge wirelessly

Feel off after a few weeks. Wish the adhesion was better. Can’t live without it.

I was hesitant on how well this would work, but was happily impressed. I have the smartish card case and a popsocket would not stay on. So I tried this one and it sticks great. Had it for a month now and it’s still holding up well.
Sarah M.
If I had small hands/fingers, I probably would have liked this a lot more. Instead, I can't fit two fingers through it and still hold the phone comfortably. One finger is too loose and provides no stability. I don't have especially large hands, which makes the sizing all the more confounding. This product truly is smart-ish - great concept, seemingly well built, but evidently only user tested by people with slender fingers. If they make a larger size down the road, I'll absolutely give it another shot. In the meantime, I'm returning this.
Aaron S.
Excellent products….I love the design & functionality!

I’ve had this for a year and a half and even switched it to a different phone and case. For those that said it is too stiff to use one handed, it does loosen up over time. I’m due for a new one, only because the leather type material is wearing off. In every other way, it is still very reliable and the best way to safely hold my phone.
Spencer G.
Purchased the Smartish iPhone 12 Pro Max Wallet Case + Prop Tart holder in November 2020. Both items are still working as expected, and I drop my phone all the time. Would highly recommend getting the prop tart holder. I cannot quantify how many times it has probably saved my face from a falling phone when in bed at night. Also, it's almost been a year of near-constant use and it is still strongly adhered to my case. Still has its "pop" when retracting back into the flat position.
Natalie B.
I LOVE this little darling. Easy to use and not obstructive. Wayyyyy better that Popsockets!
Laura L.
If you want to prop your phone up from all angles and sides apply it like in this photo, otherwise it falls over.
Cathy D.
Super happy with this attachment and bought the matching phone case for my iPhone 12 Pro. You wouldn’t know it wasn’t originally part of the phone case, matches perfectly and works great! Thank you Smartish!
Avery D.
This product is worth it. It sticks. I’m not a bot. or am I?
Smartish Customer
Great product overall!! I purchase smartish which I love so far. I got the matching prop tart which is great. It’s very durable, much more than any other one I have purchased which also they costed more. The adhesive is untouchable. Additionally, it is very sturdy. I don’t have to worry about it falling over and it stays on my finger like no other. I would highly recommend this product
Sheryl
The holder is great for extra grip. Just beware, on the big phones (mine is a iPhone 12 pro max) it will not work as a stand, in the vertical position, if it is attached centrally. Works fine horizontally.
Nathan O.
Easy to apply, surprisingly comfy to use.
FranciscoV
It is nice to have this but it adds a little bulk to the case
Teresa
Love this, works great, very comfortable, sturdy. Lasted 2 years before needed replacement. I’m on my second one. This company makes a great case also
GERRI A.
Perfect for handling your phone.

I bought this along with the Smartish iPhone X/XS Wallet Case - Wallet Slayer Vol. 2 [Slim Protective Kickstand] Credit Card Holder for Apple iPhone 10s/10 (Silk) - Black Tie Affair and couldn't be happier. I applied it by holding the prop tart on my finger and then grabbed my phone as if I were holding it naturally and then pressed the prop tart to the phone. I lucked out as the notch in the prop matched the notch of the card slot on the phone case so it looks like it was always meant to be there. The prop is very durable and resilient- I can twirl around my finder, use it to prop my phone, and watch videos, basically anything and I would not be worried about it snapping and my phone dropping.
mclark
Love the prop tart! It’s very sturdy and secure. I have it on the back of the Smartish wallet slayer volume 1-it’s pretty thin and I can still fit phone in my back pocket. When I don’t have pockets I have attached a key ring to the prop tart and am using a lanyard to carry the phone-tge adhesive is very strong and supports weight of phone hanging from lanyard.
HHoop
The product is a little bigger than I prefer and it interferes with my magnet dock, but it works as it’s supposed to.
Xavier M.
Very sturdy, doesn't feel like you have to hold your phone. Definitely gives me great handling and of my Ultra big phone
Mariah B.
Still using on my phone. Great quality and different from the loops and pop sockets. Amazing product.
Hannah
Update: it lasted a little over a month which I guess for the price is fine. The adhesive work off pretty quickly so it was only a matter of time. I’ll probably get another because I liked the feel of them and I have the matching case but I’m a bit disappointed it only lasted about a month.So far I am loving this. I got the case that goes with it too. I am big on having a wallet case but at the same time not having it be too bulky or complicated. it doesn't have a flap that I have to open or anything like that. This means it will last a lot longer, because I am rough on my cases. The fact that this pops out or goes back completely flat is a game changer. I don't need it out all the time. Its not bulky like a pop socket was, and Its not cheap either. It sticks really well and isn't just cheap plastic. I love that the case and the 'prop tart' have coordinating colors too. The price point is really good too!!
Danelle M.
I like this phone strap a lot. Adhered to my case without the need of extra glue and has held tight for a few weeks now. My only gripe is I wish the strap would pull out a little further to be more effective as a phone stand, but it's a nitpick honestly.
Greer G.
The first one kept collapsing flat under my phone, so instead of just returning it (because I love the design!) I asked if I could get it replaced. They said it must be a magnet or something, and sent me a new one, no problem. I haven’t had any trouble with the new one and I simply adore it! I love the kickstand aspect but also I like the loop to hold the phone with, since it’s a bit too heavy for me compared to my old phone.
Mara
I prefer this over rings or pop sockets. I have chubby fingers but it still works. Adhesion is great. I did accidentally pull a corner loose and stuck a dot of super glue on the back. It’s still going strong. It would have to be off center (more to a side) in order to be used as a prop. I have recommended this to friends. And the people who’ve seen it on my phone like it.
Laura
It’s sleek and feels great. Doesn’t smoosh my fingers together and isn’t hard to use. Kickstand also works well.
K
I’ve had pop socks and loops but this is the best and I love that it folds flat when not using it
Andrew J.
Great for using phone one handed or as a kickstand.
Christine G.
Very sturdy!
Sciakath
Strong and flexible. I like that it can be flat against my phone when not in use, but also works great to prop it up when watching Netflix.
Yole C.
Me gusto! Si pega bien a la funda
DRS
I think its too big for a women. and it’s NOT NICE LOOKING. need to make more feminine look.

Falta un pegamento con poco más de pegamento , que no se solucione con pegamento adicional sobre el estuche (obvio no sobre el celular directamente)

Had this for about a week or so,Fits perfect, stick perfect, very sturdy and great gripz
Ema Salas K.
I love this company and their products. The Prop Tart is easy to put on and unobtrusive. I highly recommend smartish products.

Was a little thicker than expected but worked well with with s20plus as the camera sticks out a bit and lines up perfect with the case

*pulls out phone from pocket**mysteriously drops phone**repeats many times per day*I've tried pop socket-types before and never liked them. So I went without. Plus they never fit well in my skinny jeans. Enter Smartish Prop Tart! Besides the genius product name, the performance of this little guy is astounding. It adheres securely to the back of the Smartish Wallet case and the loop extends out nicely and then pops right back down flat when not in use. It also doubles as a kick stand which is awesome!!
Christina Elizaga P.
*UPDATED TO TAKE AWAY A STAR* So, the magnet is not as strong as I thought it was at first. I still need to jimmy-rig my case so it sticks strong to the magnetic mount. I wish I could find a strong, flat piece of metal to glue to the outside of this loop. But aside from that, it’s the best option I’ve found for what I need. ♀️IT’S MAGNETIC!! You guys, I’ve been searching high and low, literally searching the following terms on Smartish: phone, finger loop, kickstand, magneticNothing came back with all the terms, and I’ve tried ALL of the styles. I stumbled across this one, and figured I’d give it a try. I hacked my phone case to be able to use with my magnetic car mount, so I was just hoping this was thin enough to still work with my hack.I DON’T NEED MY HACK ANYMORE, BECAUSE THIS BAD BOY IS MAGNETIC AND STICKS TO MY CAR MOUNT ITSELF! Smartish, PLEASE add this to your title and description. It will appeal to those of us out there who are very picky with our phone accessories. Yours checks all the boxes!
Smartish Customer
Can’t tell you how many pop sockets and rings I’ve gone through. This has been the best phone prop accessory I’ve used.
Kevin R.
Quite satisfied with the Smartish Prop Tart. Using with a Kung Fu Grip case, it adheres nicely and functions as I’d imagine it would. Highlights for me are easier one handed texting and a sturdy kickstand. Furthermore, one would be less likely to drop their phone in the first place when using this product. Very pleased!
*mandy
Better than a pop socket. Still keeps a minimal look and feel when needed.
Tricia A. A.
Strong and stylish. I really like have it in an different color than my phone to. Slides out easily to use.
Heterochromatic
I have this attached to my smartish armor case...both are excellent protectors for my extravagantly expensive iphone II pro max, but not bulky. Highly recommend both products.
Warren
First of all, this is an amazing product, it fits great, feels great, and works better than advertised. HOWEVER, I didn't know that there were magnets in it. Wherever the magnets meet the back of the Note, the S pen doesn't work in that location due to magnetic interference. It's a small area so it isn't too bad, all this means is that if you want to use the S pen on the entire screen you have to move the product away from the phone (i.e. take the case off). My suspicion is that this also would apply to other Note devices, but this is otherwise a great product.
Meghan R.
I got this because it was recommended on the page of a Smartish phone case. I wanted to find a loop that would work with my textured Smartish iPhone 11 case. I got this shortly before vacation, and I love it! It works super well and I've had no issues with it staying attached. The loop is comfortable and keeps a low profile when collapsed. Everyone that's seen it has asked about it. Highly recommend! The only thing I wish was that it came in a color that matched the case I purchased.UPDATE Dec. 2020: I've now had this for almost a year. A small part of the loop is looking a little worn (it looks saggy when it's not open), but it's still 100% functional. The adhesive hasn't loosened at all and I use this multiple times a day. Very happy with this purchase and will definitely buy another one whenever I get a new phone or case.
R. B.
I love my Smartish phone case so I thought I’d try out this too and it’s great. Easy to open and close, works well for one handed phone use or as a kickstand.Only thing I miss is being able to use a wireless phone charger with my case on but it’s not a big deal to pop it off and charge when I am using a wireless charger.
Diamorif
Well designed but interferes with Qi charging. Was of great quality and I’m still using their wallet case, just wish it did both. Sadly that’s not how physics works
Ryan C.
Great product. Only drawback is that you can’t use wireless charging with it, so I can’t give the full 5 stars.
Smartish Customer
This product works great! I can use it to type with one hand and it holds my phone well when I'm watching videos. I was worried it would be bulky in my pockets but my phone still slides in and out easily. High quality product, definitely recommend!
HummBaby
Wonderful product! Easy to stick onto my iPhone 11 Pro case and attaches securely and allows you to hold the phone without worrying about it slipping out of your hands. It also works great as a kickstand for watching videos/movies. just make sure to clean case very well with rubbing alcohol first.I highly recommend and I would definitely purchase again! Smartish is definitely becoming one of my favorite products!
Charles Y.
Work very well and sturdy. Also great material quality!
Smartish Customer
I purchased this to apply to my Smartish Wallet Slayer v1 and LOVE it. This FAR exceeds the performance of PopSockets in use and profile. The phone case is great, this makes it that much better. You need to buy both of these items from this company for you iPhone!!! Nope, I haven’t been paid for this review and I haven’t received anything for free as a result of it. If you don’t buy them, it’s your loss.
Mom of 3.
Edit: Smartish sent me two more updates Prop Tarts that have a new design to keep it from snapping and breaking when pulling omit out or returning it to flat. So far, so good! Also, the new ones are offered in new colors. I was sent a black (like I had) and a teal color that matched the Smartish case I previously bought. Absolutely love the customer service and I’m pretty damn happy with the product now.Edit: I was contacted by the Smartish team and was sent a replacement for the Prop Tart. Customer service is excellent!I love everything about this product except it only lasted one month before the prop part snapped while opening it today. It sticks really well to my Smartish case, it has a very low profile, and it’s been useful when needed. That being said, I’ve used it sparingly and this morning I went to pull it out to use and I heard a snap. The bendy part snapped in the middle. It will still work for intended purposes at the moment but it won’t be long before the snapped part weakens and breaks. Maybe a different material used in the bendy part would help? Either way, it has worked great up until now. I’ve co texted the seller to see if it can be replaced.
