A PopSocket is a small, round, accordion-like device that can be attached to the back of a phone or tablet. It can be used as a stand to prop up the device, or as a grip to make it easier to hold. PopSockets are available in a variety of colors and designs, and can be customized with photos or other images.
PopSockets were invented in 2012 by David Barnett, a former philosophy professor. Barnett came up with the idea for PopSockets after he saw his daughter struggling to hold her phone while taking photos. He wanted to create a device that would make it easier for people to use their phones, and PopSockets were born.
