Why they are perfect for travel
Made for holidays
On the plane, by the pool, on the beach. Read one-handed, with your other hand free for your drink.
A better way to hold
There is nothing to grip, so no more hand fatigue or cramping.
Read any way you like
Lying down, on your side, even flat on your back. Two straps means either hand works, so you can swap when one gets tired.
Protects hands and device
Your hand is tucked in, so your Kindle stays put. Padded silicone gives high-impact protection where drops land hardest.
Kind to sore hands
1 in 6 people in the UK live with arthritis.* There is nothing to squeeze or grip, so customers with hand conditions tell us they can read again.
Silicone, not elastic
It wipes clean in seconds, so no soaking up sweat or hand cream. And it will not stretch out and go slack.
*Over 10 million people in the UK live with arthritis (Arthritis UK).

It all started at 2am with a Kindle and a baby.
Four years ago I was doing another late-night feed, exhausted and reading to stay awake. I drifted off for a second and dropped my Kindle on my newborn son Archie's head.
The next day, at our kitchen table, my partner Ben cut up a silicone mat and stapled together the very first strap. It was ugly. It worked. My Kindle stayed put, even when I fell asleep.
That homemade fix became a patented product, blew up on BookTok, landed a deal on Shark Tank, and now helps over 350,000 people around the world read comfortably. Now it is on the shelves at InMotion in UK airports, which still feels a bit unreal.
Happy reading, Lou
I love this product. That's why you're going to do a deal with me!
Robert Herjavec, Shark Tank
This is actually a very natural and neutral position for... the hand and it feels comfortable.

Questions people ask
Will it fit my device?
Check the size guide above, or the device list on the back of the pack.
Is it hygienic?
Yes. It is solid silicone, so it does not soak up sweat, oils or hand cream. A wipe with warm soapy water and it is clean.
Is it good for sore hands?
There is nothing to squeeze or grip, so the hand rests open. Lots of customers with arthritis tell us they can read comfortably again. Strapsicle is a reading accessory, not a medical device.
Is it a case? Can I keep my cover on?
It is not a case, and it will not work over a folio or flip cover. It goes straight onto your device and the padded silicone takes the knocks.
Will it stretch out?
No. Silicone holds its tension, so it will not go slack over time the way elastic does.
Why two straps?
So you can read with either hand and swap when one gets tired. Two points of support also hold it far more securely.
