Etsy user RyanFlosss has created a floss sticker as a clever solution to an unfortunately common problem. The sticker is designed to fit on the front of the case for Apple AirPods, disguising the expensive headphones as a floss container and decreasing the likelihood that a thief makes off with them after rifling through one's things.
Though the wireless Bluetooth AirPods offer a host of benefits, security is not one of them. The small headphones can be easily lost or, worse, stolen. Further, they cost a significant sum, making such a loss especially upsetting. By using the floss sticker from RyanFlosss, consumers can give themselves some extra theft protection with a simple and inexpensive solution.
The sticker itself uses a generic, fictional brand name and a hygienic label design to fool thieves.
