Swedish company C-Safe has developed the first reliable anti-theft and anti-drop smartphone accessory. The product is both functional and user-friendly, as opposed to similar or more complex solutions that are currently on the market. Furthermore, the product is entirely mechanical, requiring no batteries that need charging.

After being pick-pocketed himself a couple of years ago, C-Safe's founder was inspired to create this [anti-theft smartphone product](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anti-theft-1). The compact and practical item ensures users' phones are safely fastened to their pocket and helps to prevent [stolen devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/armorsiren-portable-security-system) -- a growing problem for those living in highly populated cities or those traveling abroad.

The company is currently running pilot projects in Asia and C-Safe will launch on [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loopit) on April 5th.
