I didn't like that it was a bit too bulky for me, so I ended up returning it. However, it fit nicely for my iPhone 7.

Hi, Collegemom,
It should be easy to put your phone in and take it out from the armband's pouch. If it has a case, try to temporarily remove it and see what happens. Get in touch with us at [email protected] with your phone number and the link to this post for assistance.

It's pretty big and bulky and it's not small enough to stay tight on my arm.

Unfortunately, once phone goes in...I couldn't use touch screen through the plastic....so it's basically just a phone holder

I do not recommend this product for use with iPhone 7. This armband is NOT fully compatible with iPhone 7 as stated on manufacturers packaging. Although you have "home button accesibility", due to the new concept of the home button on the iPhone 7 it does not detect your press thru the clear cover. Not being able to have home button functionality is a deal breaker for me. Returned the product the next day. To be fair, the other aspects of the armband are superb. Quality construction, great fit, reasonable price, and looks good. For earlier models of iPhone it would probably work fine.

Disappointing.

I bought this case for my new iPhone 7 because I was running a half marathon and didn't want to hold while running. I opened it on my way to the marathon and slid it into the case while walking up to the starting line to realize that this case doesn't work for the iPhone 7 other than the port opening at the bottom. Unlike previous models this model needs skin to skin contact on the home button and the plastic covers it so it doesn't work. Pretty bad design. I had to keep pulling the case completely out to even operate my phone while running. I will be returning.

Armband 1 large size

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I ordered this armband because normally Belkin is great but when I received it, it was too large for my arm. The description on this page did not indicate the size of the band, and the sticky part of the velcro is just a small square, not allowing for adjustments. While this probably isn't a problem for others, I am petite and would have bought a smaller size if one was offered. Please in the future indicate this.

Doesn't work for the iphone

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Besides having an opening for the port, the plastic cover is continuous and goes over the home button. There is no way to use the home button while it is in this case. It is also challenging to get the phone in and out of the case. I have to take my very slim case off to get it to work. I am bery disappointed.
Should you need assistance or for inquiries, we can be reached anytime via [email protected].

Not for Iphone 7

This product is not designed for IPhone 7. The earbud port is not centered to align with most recent phone update. It's also very big which would accomodate the 6plus model.
