The strap features a fabric-covered design that can be worn around the neck or across the body throughout the day, while a crank in the base can be turned to tighten up the construction. This will then allow the strap to function as a [selfie stick or a tripod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stage-powergrip) thanks to its structured yet malleable design. The Morf Strap can be used with the optional Morf Trigger that connects to the strap via a magnet for controlling the smartphone remotely. The strap comes in several style options to choose from. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 78% | Freshness: 16% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Multifunctional Smartphone Straps:** Introduce a range of multifunctional smartphone straps that can be used as a selfie stick or tripod in addition to regular use. - **Flexible Design Technology:** Develop innovative and flexible design technology that allows accessories to switch between structured and malleable form as per user's requirements. - **Remote Smartphone Control Accessories:** Create accessories that allow the smartphone to be controlled remotely through the use of magnets or wireless technology. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Consumer Electronics:** Manufacturers in the consumer electronics industry can integrate multifunctional straps into future smartphone designs, offering consumers increased flexibility and convenience. - **Fashion Accessories:** Designers can introduce a range of fashionable and functional smartphone straps to appeal to trendy and tech-savvy consumers. - **Photography Equipment:** Produce a more portable, versatile and cost-effective alternative to traditional selfie sticks - multifunctional and flexible smartphone straps that can double up as tripods and offer remote control features. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Origami-Style Smartphone Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moft-snap-phone-tripod-stand.md) - [Adjustable Phone Straps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-sling.md) - [Multi-Functional Smartphone Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meboge.md) - [Magnetic Multi-Functional Straps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multifunctional-strap.md) - [Dynamic Hybrid Camera Straps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quimera-camera-strap.md) - [All-in-One Smartphone Grips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magcardgrip.md) - [Pocket-Sized Smartphone Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mophie-portable-magnetic-stand.md) - [Origami-Inspired Magsafe Grips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marcy-arimoto.md) - [Smartphone Photographer Sling Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiftcam-workflow-sling.md)
