The first adhesive pad is attached to one side of the connector. The other side of the connector is attached to a portable device, such as mobile phone, by the second adhesive pad. The user may remove the cover to reveal the first adhesive pad, then temporarily attaches the first adhesive pad to a mounting surface so the user may take a selfie or record video with the portable device. After the user detaches the first adhesive pad, the user may place the cover over the first adhesive pad, then turn the cover so the plurality of hooks on the cover can engage and lock with the plurality of protrusions on the connector. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A portable device accessory comprising: a cover; a plurality of hooks; a connector; a first adhesive pad; a plurality of protrusions; a second adhesive pad; the plurality of hooks being adjacently connected to the cover; the plurality of hooks being radially distributed around the cover; the plurality of protrusions being externally connected to the connector; the plurality of protrusions being radially distributed around the connector; the first adhesive pad being positioned between the cover and the connector; the first adhesive pad and the second adhesive pad being concentrically positioned opposite of each other about the connector; the first adhesive pad being terminally connected to the connector; the second adhesive pad being terminally connected to the connector; the first adhesive pad being enclosed by the cover; and the connector and the cover being attached to each other by the plurality of hooks and the plurality of protrusions. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The portable device accessory as claimed in claim 1 comprising: the cover comprising a first base, an annular flange, a first edge, a first opening, and a central axis; the annular flange and the first base being concentrically positioned along the central axis; the first opening being delineated by the annular flange and the first base; the first edge being concentrically positioned around the central axis; and the first edge and the first base being oppositely positioned of each other about the annular flange. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The portable device accessory as claimed in claim 1 comprising: the cover comprising a first base, a first edge, and a first opening; each of the plurality of hooks comprising a first leg, a second leg, and at least one first protrusion; the first leg being perimetrically connected along the first edge; the first leg being perpendicularly positioned to the first base; the second leg being angularly connected to the first leg; the second leg being oriented toward the first opening; the at least one first protrusion being connected onto the second leg; and the at least one first protrusion being oriented toward the first base. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The portable device accessory as claimed in claim 1 comprising: the connector comprising a second base, a lateral wall, a top edge, a top opening, a bottom edge, and a bottom opening; the top edge and the bottom edge being concentrically positioned around the lateral wall; the top edge and the bottom edge being oppositely positioned of each other about the lateral wall; the lateral wall being concentrically connected around the second base; the second base being positioned in between the top edge and the bottom edge; the top opening being delineated by the top edge and the second base; and the bottom opening being delineated by the bottom edge and the second base. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The portable device accessory as claimed in claim 4 comprising: the first adhesive pad being concentrically positioned about the top edge; the first adhesive pad being positioned within the top opening; and the first adhesive pad being superimposed onto the second base. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The portable device accessory as claimed in claim 4 comprising: the second adhesive pad being concentrically positioned about the bottom edge; the second adhesive pad being positioned within the bottom opening; and the second adhesive pad being superimposed onto the second base. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The portable device accessory as claimed in claim 1 comprising: the connector comprising a lateral wall, a top edge, and a second base; each of the plurality of protrusions comprising a structural body and at least one locking divot; the structural body being externally connected around the lateral wall; the structural body being positioned adjacent to the top edge; the structural body being radially distributed around the second base; the at least one locking divot traversing into the structural body; and the at least one locking divot being oriented toward the top edge. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The portable device accessory as claimed in claim 1 comprising: each of the plurality of hooks comprising at least one first protrusion; each of the plurality of protrusions comprising at least one locking divot; and the at least one locking divot and the at least one first protrusion being slidably engaged with each other.
