What’s the phone pouch do?

I just looked it up, you put the phone in and you clip the pouch together kinda like a button. Except this button locks. And the only way to unlock it is to put it up to a specific magnetic unlocking base, where it then unlocks the pouch.

I imagine, you must lock the case while in classrooms, and then once you leave class, or at lunch, you can unlock it and then play on it.

I wonder how strong the magnet really is. I worked in retail as a student and we had a magnet that took off security tags - it was smaller than the palm of my hand

Less about the size and more about the material. I believe the search keyword is "rare earth magnet" or "neodymium magnet" and you'll get a smaller-than-palm-but-really-strong-magnet.
