How Does PhoneSoap work?
Simply place your cell phone in your PhoneSoap and close the lid. During a 10-minute cycle, a powerful UV-C light kills 99.99% of household germs. When the external blue indicator turns off, your cell phone is completely clean.
This UV-C light effectively destroys nucleic acids and breaks apart bacteria DNA. With their DNA broken, bacteria can’t function or reproduce, and the organisms die.
In nature, the UV-C light that causes this germicidal effect is harmful to our eyes but is blocked by Earth’s atmosphere. In the PhoneSoap’s controlled environment, UV-C light effectively and safely sanitizes your cell phone, as well as anything else that fits inside your PhoneSoap like remotes, keys, tablets, and more.

How Do PhoneSoap Cables work?
PhoneSoap Cables have been tested by an independent, third-party laboratory to be 99.99% effective against MRSA strain of Staphylococcus. PhoneSoap Cables include a zinc-based, broad-spectrum antimicrobial formulation built into the manufacturing process. This additive complies with applicable regulations and is proven to inhibit growth of harmful pathogens. The formulation is effective against bacteria, fungi (mold, mildew, and algae), and some virus strains.
