finger loop

Digit insertion hole

A finger loop is a small ring or strap attached to an object that allows the user to secure it by inserting a finger.

Phone cases often have finger loops on the back to prevent dropping the device.

Camera straps, styluses, and small tools may include finger loops for similar grip-enhancing purposes.

The finger loop on my phone case keeps it from slipping out of my hand.
