A bit difficult to use with iPhone X

This review is for the iPhone X. The band has all the features it promises and the 120 degree swivel feature is pretty nifty. I didn't use the headset cord storage feature shown in the picture, so I can't comment on that. I am generally very easy to please, in general this bandage works well. with a big problem. The stretch straps that hold the phone around the corners are problematic for most iPhone features. Without a home button, you have to swipe up to open the phone (Face ID does not work in the palm of your hand). and the material that holds the phone is on top of the swipe bar. Also, the bars span 4 apps in the bottom bar, so I have to physically move the bars sideways to get to my music, phone, etc. I suspect the bars won't stretch the same way on a smaller phone. and therefore they don't close apps or the scroll bar. What used to take 8 seconds on my iPhone 6 to start the music now takes 30 seconds like the iPhone X as I have to deal with the sideways movement of the stretch bars. It's almost a problem enough that I'm considering buying another bandage and gifting it to my son or wife, but sticking with it for now to see how it handles in the long run.
