TANGO GRIP & STAND

Written by

A geometric marvel of steel and magnets, Tango is the most advanced phone accessory ever created.
Check on Kickstarter

Forged with aerospace grade steel and 10X expandable with the push of a button. This is not a toy. This is the Tango.

We invented a 3-dimensional steel shape that expands over 30mm high, but collapses to just 2.9mm using tiny magnets. That makes Tango invisible to the touch… and your pocket.

With one hand you simply flip, slip and grip your phone for instant comfort and security.  

 Angled detents allow you to prop your phone up in landscape or portrait depending on mounted location. See below for more information on mounting options.

To maximize comfort and cohesion, the Tango helix is coated with a soft polyester resin and sized to gently and effortlessly pull your fingers and phone together.

 We’re not messing around. This thing is made of steel, sticks to your hand and attaches to your phone with an industrial adhesive. YES – even silicone cases.

Press the Tango button to instantly add safety, security and comfort to your selfies so you can focus on your smile.

TRADITIONAL MID-CENTER: Mounting the Tango in the middle of your phone produces a center-of-gravity grip and a great landscape stand. However, like other grips placed there, in order to use wireless chargers you likely need to remove your case.
BOTTOM CENTER: Mounting the Tango on the bottom center of your phone enables both wireless charging and portrait stand mode. However, on most phones it will not work as a landscape stand.
BOTTOM CORNER: Mounting the Tango in the bottom corner of your phone enables both portrait and landscape stand mode. It also works for wireless charging.

Wireless Charging

When mounted in either bottom position (centered or corner) wireless charging works.

Tango can be opened and used with one hand regardless of mounted position.

Magnetic Car Mounts

Tango steel is ferromagnetic (and has embedded magnets) so it generally works with most magnetic car mounts. You may have to collapse Tango after removing from car mount.

Tango Adhesive

To maximize security, we sourced an adhesive from the aircraft industry to semi-permanently stick the Tango to any smooth phone case, including silicone cases. It can be removed and we do ship an extra adhesive pad.

See FAQ section for more information about removal.

iPhones (and Androids with an app) have a feature called Back Tap which allows you to perform actions by tapping the back of the phone. You probably never heard of it because tapping the back of your phone while holding it feels clumsy. Unless you have a Tango. Then it’s actually super easy and useful.
