Turn your Loopy case into a sturdy stand for video calls, watching shows, and hands-free selfies. Learn 5 simple tricks using your loop and a few everyday items.

Your Loopy case is famous for its secure grip, but did you know it can also double as a handy stand? Whether you're video chatting, streaming your favorite show, or snapping a hands-free photo, your Loopy case has you covered. With a little creativity and a few simple techniques, you can transform your phone into a mini tripod without buying any extra accessories.

In this guide, we'll walk you through five practical ways to use your Loopy case as a stand. These tricks work with any Loopy case, including the popular Loopy Cases, and require nothing more than items you probably already have at home. Let's dive in!

The Classic Loop Stand: Using Your Finger

The simplest way to use your Loopy case as a stand is to slip your finger through the loop and let your hand act as a natural prop. This works great for quick video calls or when you need to hold your phone at a specific angle for a few minutes. Just slide your finger through the loop and adjust the phone's tilt until you find the perfect viewing angle.

For a more stable setup, place your hand flat on a table with the phone resting against your fingers. The loop keeps your phone secure while your hand provides a solid base. This is perfect for watching recipes while cooking or following along with a workout video.

If you have a Loopy case with an interchangeable loop, like the Interchangeable Sparkle Super Loops, you can easily swap to a loop that matches your outfit or mood. The loop's flexibility allows you to adjust the angle with just a slight movement of your finger.

  • Use your index or middle finger for the most control.
  • Tilt your hand slightly to change the viewing angle.
  • Keep your wrist straight to avoid fatigue during longer sessions.

The Desk Stand: Using a Pencil or Pen

Need a hands-free stand for your desk? Grab a pencil or pen and slide it through the loop of your Loopy case. Position the phone so the loop is at the bottom, then place the pencil on the desk with the phone leaning against it. The pencil acts as a kickstand, holding your phone at a comfortable angle for video calls or watching videos.

This trick works best with a case that has a sturdy loop, like the Last Call Super Loops, which are designed for durability. Make sure the loop is snug around the pencil to prevent slipping. You can also use a makeup brush, a chopstick, or any similarly shaped object.

For a more permanent desk setup, consider using a thicker pen or marker to provide extra stability. The key is to find an object that fits snugly through the loop and creates a stable tripod effect with the phone's edges.

  • Place the phone on a flat, non-slip surface.
  • Angle the phone slightly backward for a better view.
  • Use a pencil with an eraser to prevent scratching your desk.

The DIY Tripod: Using a Rubber Band or Hair Tie

If you have a rubber band or hair tie, you can create a more secure stand. Loop the band through the loop of your Loopy case and around the phone itself, creating a small tripod-like structure. Then, fold the phone slightly and prop it against a stack of books or a coffee mug. The band holds everything together, making the setup more stable than just relying on the loop alone.

This method is great for recording videos or taking time-lapse shots. The added security of the rubber band ensures your phone won't topple over, even if you bump the table. Plus, it's a zero-cost solution that you can set up in seconds.

For those who love customization, the Art Print Super Loops not only look great but also provide a reliable grip. Pair one with a rubber band for a stylish and functional stand that reflects your personality.

  • Use a thick rubber band for better hold.
  • Wrap the band around the phone twice for extra security.
  • Experiment with different angles to find the perfect shot.

The Landscape Stand: Using a Credit Card or ID

When you want to watch a movie or video in landscape mode, a credit card or ID can be your best friend. Slip the card through the loop of your Loopy case, then place the phone on a flat surface with the card acting as a stand. The card will hold the phone at an angle, perfect for binge-watching your favorite series.

This trick is especially useful when you're traveling and don't have access to a proper stand. The card fits easily into your wallet, so you always have a stand available. Just be careful not to bend the card or scratch its surface.

If you're using a case with a clear back, like the Translucent Super Loops, the card won't obstruct the design, keeping your phone looking sleek while you enjoy your content.

  • Use an old gift card or loyalty card to avoid damaging your ID.
  • Position the card so it forms a V-shape with the loop.
  • Place the phone on a level surface to prevent sliding.

The Wall Stand: Using a Door or Cabinet

For hands-free video calls or following a recipe while cooking, you can use a vertical surface like a door or cabinet. Simply slide the loop of your Loopy case over a door handle, cabinet knob, or even a hook. The loop will hold the phone securely, allowing you to keep your hands free.

This is a clever trick for the kitchen, where you often need both hands for cooking. You can also use it in the bathroom to watch tutorials while getting ready. Just make sure the surface is stable and the loop is securely hooked.

The Loopy Charging Cables are perfect for this setup because you can plug in your phone and keep it charged while it hangs on the wall. No more low-battery interruptions during your cooking sessions!

  • Test the weight of your phone on the hook before letting go.
  • Use a hook with a smooth surface to avoid scratching the loop.
  • Keep the phone at eye level to reduce neck strain.

Your Loopy case is more than just a grip—it's a versatile stand that adapts to your needs. Whether you're using a pencil, a rubber band, or a door handle, these five tricks will keep your phone propped up and ready for anything. So next time you need a hands-free solution, skip the tripod and reach for your Loopy case. If you haven't already, explore the latest Loopy Cases to find the perfect one for your stand needs.
