Does this really float? Or do you have to purposely leave a pocket of air in there when you seal it up??

I never tested the theory. I think the iPad is to heavy even with maximum air trapped inside. Would risk it. Use strap to tie it off....

I haven't tested it on floating, but buoyancy is pretty straightforward. There is no foam or any other material that makes this case likely to float if the object inside would normally sink. I generally do leave a pocket of air in the bag when I seal it up, both to increase buoyancy and to make the screen work better when the case is wet. Test it in the bathtub/sink to see if your tablet floats, AFTER you test your individual bag to make certain that it seals properly.

No it does not float. I would suggest to use the included strap aroun your neck so that you don't drop it, it will not float.

It is by design. Mine came the same way. The air gets trapped even with the hole, so it will float as water backs up.

I am not currently in a place where I can test for sure but I believe it would float, particularly if you turn it upside down so that the brown handle is on the bottom. I do have another lid similar to this from Silikomart and that one I know for sure floats upside down. Hope that helps you out.

Mine was sealed in a plastic bag, but I can't say if it was air tight because I didn't stick it under water to test it. (shrug) Sorry I can't be of more help. I do know it works great in my Filter Queen defender.

Hi, I don't have my box anymore but ours just floats the way it is. My husband noticed that there is styrofoam on the under side of the rim that we think makes it float. I think it came that way though. I hope that helps.

No it does not float. The biggest down side to it is that it soaks up TOO much water. This makes if comfy and secure for the child but it is very heavy and hard to wring out.

No. Air is trapped in the protector and the change in temperature will cause it to sweat. It will more than likely float. When forced under water it will more than likely leak

You lay it on top of the water and it just floats covering your pool. I like that it keeps dirt and leaves out too. Ours has gotten water on top several times, but it doesn't sink. Think of the bubble wrap sheets, but heavier duty. It works great for our round, above-ground pool. Hope this helps.

We never had issues with it floating. That said, you do need to be sure not to fill the tub too full. Mind the "max fill" line on the bath support to ensure safe bathing and no tub floating.

If you seal it with air trapped inside it will float. I had my Samsung phone and car keys in it and the pack still floated fine.

I have used this on about 30 dives and never noticed that it floated. I've never dropped it in the water to see if it floated, its always been attached to my wrist, but in my experience I would say no

Seems like an odd question as the description clearly indicates it floats & it is waterproof. ?????

This is meant to stay buoyant in the water. It will float to the surface if dropped. Please let us know if there is anything else that you may need.

I agree with Linda's answer. You have to assemble the canister and then hold it under water to get all of the air out so it doesn't float. I don't think you need to plug it directly into the wall vacuum hole though. I have a short length of hose attached to the wall, then the vacuum canister, and then the rest of the hose. This works fine.

It's possible to make it float but you would have to ballast it as you build it. Without the ballast it's very top heavy and will capsize.

I put my iPhone in it so there was room for air around it causing it to float... But I am not sure if it would float if I had a phone that was bigger and heavier...

Yes it will! It's air tight. So it traps air in it that's what make it float. Also if I remember right it's submersible for 30 minutes
