This whole charm will use double bands unless directed differently. The thing about this charm is that it's an iPhone 5c, so you can use any color for the border. So, take double of your border bands and put them on your loom. Do as shown.
The Center

In the center, go down two times using double border color bands.
Apps in the Making

Have you ever wanted to make your own app? Well now you can! Take a single band and wrap it around your hook 3 times, creating 4 loops. Then slide it onto a single band that is the color of your background. I chose clear bands for my background, but of you don't have clear bands, use whatever kind of bands you want. Make as many or as little apps as you would like. I also suggest using two-toned bands, because they look really cool!
Adding the App
![14, 9:41 AM.jpg](/proxy/?url=https://content.instructables.com/FZL/UUO0/HXQMYT39/FZLUUO0HXQMYT39.jpg&filename=14, 9:41 AM.jpg)

Place a single band that is the color of your background as shown. Then place the app on top of it, also shown.
Fill It Up

Repeat the last step until you have reached the the third peg from the bottom.
Border Color

Push down all of the bands on the leftmost side. Then carefully removed ONLY the right and center bands. Keep the unloomed bands on the left side down!
Rearrange
![14, 9:41 AM.jpg](/proxy/?url=https://content.instructables.com/F15/EKIX/HXQMYTQ1/F15EKIXHXQMYTQ1.jpg&filename=14, 9:41 AM.jpg)

This is the tricky part. Carefully take apart your loom, rearranging it so that the side that used to be on the left is on the right, and the center and what used to be the right are not in their places. You can also look at the picture for detail. If you have two movable looms, then connect those and continue.
Repeat

A... What Is This?

When you take your phone off of the loom, it will look like some sort of rainbow wheel. Pulling and teasing is what gets it that rectangle shape.
Hiding the Slip Knits

Once your phone is straight, it will look messy because of the slip knots. To hide them, go to the back of the phone and put your hook through a random spot and grab the slip knot, pulling it through the random spot.
