For consumers that inevitably bring their smartphone with them while using the bathroom, the LooLedge is a convenient sanitary station that offers a place for people to put their phone down. The device features a toilet paper holder with an added extended ledge that holds cellular devices while the consumer is using the bathroom. The ledge ensures that smartphones are kept in a safe place when not in use.
Rather than try to convince consumers of leaving their smartphones behind when they use the bathroom, the design of the LooLedge embraces that people will bring their tech devices with them no matter where they go. The LooLedge features a handy and secure area to place a smartphone device while going to the bathroom. This also keeps the device free from touching unhygienic hands till after they are washed.
