The starting point

Phone bans don't fail because of the decision.
They fail at enforcement.

01

Distraction in class

One glance at the screen, and the thread is lost. Not just for one student — for half the class, several times a lesson.

02

Daily conflicts

Collecting phones, arguing, explaining to parents. Every rule becomes a negotiation — and the teacher is left to handle it alone.

03

Workload for staff

Holding onto phones means liability, paperwork, and handing them back. Time that is missing from teaching.

Collected phones in a box — exactly what OMNI-Bags avoids

04

Exams

Fair conditions, secure administration: no device within reach, no arguments about cheating.

What the research shows

Editorial note (not for live use): study references citing "2015" and "2017" to be checked against the original source before go-live (figures and wording).

A rule that enforces itself.

How it works

Four steps. No storing, no collecting.

The phone remains the student's property and possession at all times. The school stores nothing — and is liable for nothing.

01

Phone goes in

Before the first lesson each morning, every student puts their device into their own pouch.

Pouch locks shut

One motion, and the pouch is locked — it can no longer be opened by hand. Visible to everyone.

Stays with the student

Unlike collection boxes or baskets, the phone stays with the student — ownership stays ownership.

Unlocked at the OMNI-Base

At the end of the school day, a quick tap on the OMNI-Base opens the pouch — no supervision, no queue.

Features & benefits

Thought through down to the detail — built for daily school use.

OMNI-Bag with extra pocket, front and back, with the OMNI-Base

More than just a pouch.

Well made, built for daily wear — with an extra pocket for more storage. We tailor every delivery to your school: number of OMNI-Bases, fittings, and your logo if you'd like it.

Strong magnets

A secure, reliable lock — it cannot be opened by hand. It only opens at the OMNI-Base.

Custom design

Your school's or company's logo on request — matching your school's look.

Flexible configuration

We tailor the number of OMNI-Bases and the fittings to your school at delivery.

High-quality craftsmanship

Cleanly made and durable — built for daily school use.

Rugged materials

Resistant and built for constant use.

Extra pocket

Extra storage built right into the pouch.

Signal shielding

Inside the closed pouch, the smartphone neither receives nor sends any signal — no notifications, no vibration, no distraction.

„The key point is that the smartphone shouldn't be used at all — instead, the children talk to each other, they play together.“

Frequently asked questions

What schools and parents often ask.

01Why OMNI-Bags and not another provider?

In short: there's more to it than a pouch with a lock.

  • Especially strong, reliable magnets — only opened with the OMNI-Base. Free-standing magnets do not open the pouch.
  • Physical signal shielding — the phone is genuinely offline, not just locked away.
  • High-quality, clean craftsmanship, built to last through daily school use.
  • Fair, responsible production — no child labour.
  • Customisation options, e.g. with your school's or company's logo.
  • Flexible fittings and delivery, tailored to your school.
  • Personal 1:1 guidance when introducing it at your school — not just a delivery.
02Can my child be reached in an emergency?

Yes. As with any phone policy at schools, reachability in an emergency runs through the school office. The signal shielding only applies while the pouch is closed; the device is immediately usable again as normal at the end of the school day.
