A frictional pad in combination with a handheld electronic device upon which the frictional pad is adhered and an upward facing support surface upon which the handheld electronic device is selectively disposed and held in a non-adhesive, non-slip fashion by the frictional pad. The frictional pad includes a polyurethane dome adhered to the handheld electronic device by the adhesive film. The dome has a broad, flat shape with an outfacing surface facing the upward facing support surface with a flat and smooth center parallel with the adhesive film and surrounded by a radius perimeter. The outfacing surface of the dome contacts the upward facing support surface and is tacky to releasably hold the handheld electronic device to the upward facing support surface.
