What Makes FoneAway™ Lockable Phone Pouches the Best Choice?

The FoneAway™ Lockable Phone Pouch is a flexible, robustly constructed, lockable mobile phone case, which offers padded protection for the contents, and is designed to safely and securely store a mobile phone and prevent its use or distractions in restricted areas. 

Features include:

• Simple push button locking once the phone is inserted, (the phone can be released later at a convenient on-site magnetic unlocking station).
• RFID Faraday cage type signal blocking technology temporarily eliminates annoying distractions such as incoming or outgoing calls or signals.
• Compact size, belies the generous capacity which will accommodate the largest conventional mobile phone, plus a smartwatch or similar.

Why are Lockable Phone Pouches Needed?

Smartphones are not inherently bad, but there are environments where their use could present an unwelcome challenge, including:

• Causing a distraction to the phone user.
• Distracting or spoiling the moment or experience for those around them.
• Activities such as unauthorised filming of events, people, products or other sensitive subject matter.

What makes the FoneAway Lockable Phone Pouch Superior to similar products? 

Our partnership with a high quality, reliable manufacturer, was cemented after a lengthy period of discussions and product sampling with numerous alternative suppliers, who proved either unable or unwilling to meet our exacting specification and requirements.

Issues encountered with rejected suppliers during our research include; 

• Poor Product Design
  – Permanently exposed locking pin – a dangerous design!
  – Small physical dimensions – not suitable for use with larger type mobile phones.
  – Use of flimsy protective padding – poor protection for phone and other pouch contents.
  – Inadequate strengthening materials used to support stress points on the pouch.
  
• Poor Manufacture
  – Use of inferior quality materials.
  – Poor quality stitching and/or inconsistent pouch shape.
  – Poor quality locking mechanism and lock alignment.
  
• Lack of flexibility to meet our specified requirements
  – Unable (or unwilling) to incorporate an external ID card pocket with clear window.
  – Unwilling to incorporate signal blocking technology.
  – Unable to commit to required manufacturing and delivery lead-times, or continuity of ongoing supply.

FoneAway Pouches deliver a practical, convenient and easily accepted way, to stop the use of mobile phones in restricted areas, without the need to separate phones from their owners, ensuring a comfortable solution for everyone.

Which is why lockable phone pouches have gained traction across schools, concerts & comedy venues among others.
