Abstract: A securing apparatus for a handheld device or object is comprised of a sleek, fashionable, flexible elastic strip or band, enhancing a user's gripping capability, thereby preventing abuse and accidental dropping of the device. The elastic strip is removably attached to the device by removable attaching means connected or integrated to each end of the strip. The apparatus may be further provided with a discrete lift mechanism, either attached or integrally formed with the elastic strip. The apparatus retains its form after stretching, and is taut against a surface of the device to avoid catching against exterior objects, fitting discretely on any surface of the device. The securing apparatus can be installed for easy use and minimal dexterity for all users and can be made in different sizes, color, and of different materials having elastomeric properties.
