         2 . The platform of  claim 1  further comprising a padding connected to the string, the padding being configured to be positioned in between the string and the user when the platform is being used to provide comfort to the user. 
     
     
         3 . The platform of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of attachment ports defined by the plurality of the interconnected sides and a plurality of attachment blades corresponding to the plurality of attachment ports, the at least one leg connectable to the plurality of attachment blades. 
     
     
         4 . The platform of  claim 3 , wherein each of the plurality of attachment blades define a leg channel configured to receive the at least one leg. 
     
     
         5 . The platform of  claim 1 , further comprising a first pair of attachment ports defined by a first pair of interconnected sides from the plurality of interconnected sides, a second pair of attachment ports defined by a second pair of interconnected sides from the plurality of interconnected sides, wherein the at least one leg is connectable to the first pair of attachment ports to position the electronic device on a first position, and the at least one leg is connectable to the second pair of attachment ports to position the electronic device on a second position. 
     
     
         6 . A platform for an electronic device with a display screen, comprising:
 an electronic device case including a plurality of interconnected sides configured to enclose the electronic device and form a view port configured to allow a user to view the display screen of the electronic device, the plurality of interconnected sides defining a plurality of attachment ports, the plurality of attachment ports including a first pair of attachment ports and a second pair of attachment ports;   a plurality of attachment blades attachable to the first pair of attachment ports and the second pair of attachment ports;   a plurality of legs connectable to the plurality of attachment blades; and   a string connected to the electronic device case, the string being configured to be attached to the user to hang the electronic device case to the user, wherein the plurality of attachment blades can be moved from a position where they are connected to the first pair of attachment ports and to a position where they are connected to the second pair of attachment ports to change the position of the electronic device relative to the user.   
     
     
         7 . The platform of  claim 6 , wherein the string includes an adjustment loop configured to allow the length of the string to be adjusted. 
     
     
         8 . The platform of  claim 6 , wherein when the plurality of attachment blades are attached to the first pair of attachment ports, the display screen of the electronic device is in a portrait orientation relative to the user, and when the plurality of attachment blades are attached to the second pair of attachment ports, the display screen of the electronic device is in a landscape orientation relative to the user. 
     
     
         9 . The platform of  claim 6 , wherein each of the plurality of attachment blades includes a leg channel configured to receive a leg, the leg channel including a plurality of steps defined within the leg channel and configured to allow the length of the leg to be adjusted, when the length of the leg is adjusted, the distance of the electronic device relative to the user is adjusted. 
     
     
         10 . The platform of  claim 6 , wherein each of the plurality of attachment blades defines a snap tab and each of the plurality of interconnected sides of the electronic device case also defines a tab lock configured to hold the snap tab in place when the plurality of attachment blades are attached to their respective attachment ports. 
     
     
         11 . The platform of  claim 6 , wherein each of the plurality of legs define at least one string channel configured to receive the string. 
     
     
         12 . The platform of  claim 11 , wherein each of the plurality of legs include string locks configured to prevent the string from further adjustment when engaged to the leg. 
     
     
         13 . A platform for an electronic device with a display screen, comprising:
