Abstract: An accessory device is designed to hold, by magnetic coupling, an electronic device and adjust one or more arms to support the electronic device on various objects. In one or more implementations, an accessory device includes one or more arms, each of which being capable of relative movement with each other. The arms of the accessory device can be moved to conform to the size, shape, and perimeter of various objects, thus allowing the accessory device to mount the electronic device on various objects. Moreover, once mounted on the object, the accessory device can further orient the electronic device such that either the camera(s) on the back of the electronic device faces a user (of the electronic device) or the display of the electronic device faces the user.

Abstract: A case for storing and carrying a personal electronic device may include a first shell and a second shell each including a rigid layer, a foam layer, batting, and an outer jacket. The rigid layer may have a concave inner surface and a convex outer surface, the foam layer may cover the outer surface of the rigid layer, the batting may cover the foam layer, and the outer jacket may cover the batting. The first shell and the second shell may be hingedly connected at edges thereof so as to be opened and closed. When closed together, the first shell and the second shell may form an interior cavity of the case.

Abstract: A machine including a base. The machine also can include a cradle configured to hold an electronic device. The machine further can include an alignment base configured to engage with an alignment mechanism of an overlay applicator. The overlay applicator can include an overlay configured to be applied to a screen of the electronic device. The machine also can include a lid hingedly attached to the base. The machine can be configured such that the lid can be rotated with respect to the base between an open configuration and a closed configuration. The machine can be configured in the closed configuration to facilitate applying the overlay of the overlay applicator to the screen of the electronic device. Other embodiments are described.

Abstract: An overlay applicator tray including a cradle including a device slot. The device slot is configured to securely hold an electronic device in the cradle. The overlay applicator tray also can include an overlay applicator. The overlay applicator can include an overlay layer and an adhesive release liner. The overlay layer can include a top side and a bottom side. The bottom side is configured to be adhered to a screen of the electronic device. The adhesive release liner is removably attached to the bottom side of the overlay layer. The overlay applicator tray additionally can include an alignment piece coupling the cradle to the overlay applicator. The alignment piece aligns the overlay layer of the overlay applicator with the screen as the overlay layer is applied to the screen when the electronic device is securely held in the device slot. The overlay applicator tray further can include a first pull tab on the adhesive release liner.
