There have been multiple rumors about the Crossbody Strap, which would be a magnetic lanyard that can attach to Apple's own iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro cases. The lanyard would let you "wear" your iPhone around your neck, which is an increasingly popular trend due to the rise of smartphone pickpocketing in major cities.

Uncle Pan has shared some accurate information about Apple accessories in the past.

Any thief can just snap it off as it’s magnetic so what’s the point, it can’t hold it that hard

Yeah, I don't understand the appeal of this at all. Is wearing your phone around your neck a thing already? Does Apple think this is going to start a new trend?

How is a magnetic lanyard a less easy to steal than a pocketed phone?

And how strong is that magnet to not drop the phone?
