Decide where to mount the popsocket. Decide in advance where you want to mount the popsocket according to your intended use.

If you want to attach two popsockets to the back of your phone, try placing them on and making sure they are lined up.

For example, if you want to support a small phone vertically, place the popsocket at the bottom of the phone.

You can attach two popsockets to support larger phones or to wrap headphones neatly.

Decide whether you want to attach the popsocket directly to the phone or to the case.

Wrap both ends of a long piece of dental floss around your index finger and place it on one edge of the popsocket. Gently pull the dental floss tightly between the popsocket and phone, removing the adhesive layer.
