Universal Car Smartphone Holder

I needed a phone holder to keep my phone handy and accessible to plug into the U Connect in my Jeep. I didn't want to stick the adhesive pad just anywhere on the dash as many of the dash surfaces are leather covered. The length was just right to use the suction cup to attach to the window, and still hold the phone just at the edge of the dash board. Been using it for a few weeks, and no problems with the phone slipping out. Easy to insert the phone, and the mini usb plug on the phone centers perfectly with the opening in the bottom of the phone holder.

This is one of those simple devices that is extremely configurable. It can be flipped over, extended, and there are joints and hand-turn adjustments that can support some pretty wild configurations. It easily holds my iPhone 8s with its large case, and snapping the phone in or out is simple.

I got this to mount my iPhone 6 to my new Kia Sportage. It works very well. I had no issues with installation. The suction has kept it attached to my dash. There were only two times it has come unstuck in the past 9 months. Both times were nights of extreme temps (once in the heat and once in cold) and both times the car had been sitting unused for two days. I cleaned the car surface both times and reattached it without a problem. It is easy to adjust the angle, height, orientation, etc with one hand depending on how tight you keep the hinges. It is also easy to attach and release the phone with one hand, although I tend to push in the grips first and then pick up my phone and mount it. It has a spring loaded “trigger” so as soon as you press the phone in place, the gripping arms snap into place around the phone. I put my phone in this mount with my Speck candy shell case still attached. I also have an iSling on the back of my phone case which adds a little to my phone profile. It still holds the phone just fine, but barely. I think if your phone has a much thicker Otterbox-like case, you may have problems with the arms holding it in place. I do keep this mounted in my car at all times, so I’m curious how long it will take for the plastic suction mechanism to fail. It’s already a little discolored. I hope that if and when it does, I will be able to replace just that part. I will update this review if it happens.

Great purchase. Never a daily frustration, which is what I wanted in a mount. I also feel safer with my phone up within my line of vision.

Overall I’ve tried many kinds of these products and this is the only one I will ever buy if I need to replace it for some reason. It’s a great product, doesn’t squeeze my phone too tight, I and I’ve had it in my car for almost 10 months now and I love it. Makes my life a lot easier! Just buy this, it works a charm!

I'm starting to like this one way better than my CD phone holder. It's so simple to use. I love that I don't have to fiddle with it to squeeze the phone. All you do is press it against the back and it locks shut. Super easy. And the suction has been sticking without any problem even when I drive on bouncy fire roads. I would strongly recommend this phone holder.

I'm really picky on these due to the obvious fact that they're being used while driving and I can't have my directions fall while I'm driving a van full of kids. I had one of these two years ago and my husband...broke it while rushing to grab his phone out of it. I still don't understand how as it's a SIMPLE RELEASE system that coincides with how your hand is already in position to grab the phone.... I went a year before finding it again, which was agonizing and trust me when I say he got an ear full from me every time. Especially over a 4 hour drive to beach. He is not a good navigator so my options were following his guide or driving with one hand and holding phone with directions in the other hand. He is NOT allowed to touch this one.... I place it on the dash to far left where I already have to be careful of the blind spot caused by vans design. Just remember, to use it on dash you have to use the round black disc that comes with and the suction cup goes on top of the disc. I have never had it fall or fail me. There are multiple places to adjust and tighten it so you can personalize it for your vehicle and view.

This thing has been through hell and back in my truck for the past year and its still going strong. Its pretty low profile and doesnt block too much, the suction is beyond fantastic on both the dash and the windshield. I love the ease of locking my phone in place and unlocking is a breeze. The only downside here is the phone case you have will def matter. I have an otterbox defender series on my google pixel 3xl and while it keeps it locked in 99% of the the time there has definitely been a time or two my phone popped out but it was usually when i had it plugged in to the charger. Overall I’m thoroughly satisfied with this and would purchase it again!

I have a 2015 Mustang and wanted a clean look for a cell phone holder. I initially bought a vent phone holder/magnet and that did not work out due the style of my vent. I then bought a cell phone holder that goes into my CD player. This didn’t work as well as the shift was too close to my holder and my phone was in the way. I looked on Amazon and found this one. I wasn’t too thrilled because it seemed like the only way I could mount it was the window given my dash style (I was wrong). It was an easily assembly and no directions needed on my end. I was able to mount it to my dashboard because it has a great feature and that it extends out! This was awesome as I can keep the clean look without having a suction cup on my window (especially in HOT AZ weather) and have it eventually turning yellow. This holds my Iphone XS Max with no issues. I would second guess the purchase, go for it!

The one handed operation to attach the phone works well with a satisfying SNAP. Removing the phone is just as simple, simply squeeze the two arms on the side and the phone detaches. The telescoping arm is nice also since on my mustang I have to attach it further back on the dash. So far I'm very happy with the holder and glad I purchased it.

Highly recommend! Very versatile and should last through several phones.

I HIGHLY recommend this product if you want a phone holder for your car. It exceeded my expectations for being a phone holder in every way.

Simple and the suction cup is pretty strong. I haven't had to move it though so unsure about how good it holds up when having to move it multiple times. It has a really good hold of the phone. The bottom is notched to make it easy to hold the phone and have it plugged in to charge if it's low. Recommend this highly. I do park in a garage, so also unable to speak on the security if it has to be parked in the heat repeatedly. I can say that day-to-day, parking outside in lots in TX in the summer, it holds up fine. Just noting the garage use does give the product a break from the heat/sun.

First of all I don't know what everyone's problem is with saying this product didn't stick well. The video I posted shows the base unit practically pulling my plastic dash cover off. This thing sticks WELL. I live in Florida and to say it can get HOT is an understatement. I have tried to pull this off and I am not kidding when I say it will take considerable force to remove it once attached. A previous holder I had was similar in it's suction cup design and it also had no issue holding fast to my dash and this one seems nicer.

When Georgia went to NO CELL PHONES touching your body this past summer, we knew that we needed something other than on the seat between our legs as a location to put the phone. I am short, so this holder works perfectly for us. On the vehicle that I normally drive we have it on the ledge of the dashboard and have adjusted the arm so that it comes down and out of the window. It is centered between the driver and the passenger. On the other vehicle, my husband mounted the holder to the left of the steering wheel on the front of the dashboard, again out of the line of sight (for driving) but within proximity of where he is sitting. Anyway, the arm (in both vehicles) is staying in place and the phones seem nice and secure within the mount! For us, it was a perfect purchase

Absolutely love this phone car mount. Incredibly secure hold not only on the dashboard but with my phone. I like that it has an opening at the bottom so that I can run my USB charging cord to the phone when my phone is mounted. I tried the vent one, but the mount wouldn't stay in the vent. The CD kind was not an option.

I bought a different brand and my husband bought this one...After comparing them, I returned mine and bought one of these as well. We both have them mounted on our dashboard close enough to our steering wheels that it is so easy to use our phones as a GPS (which is way more accurate than those that come with our cars), and also if I receive a phone call it is so easy to touch to answer and have on speaker phone which is way less annoying for everyone than the blue tooth in my car. Also we love how easy it is to put the phone in the holder, it literally automatically snaps in place on the sides to hold the phone securely, and is very easy to release with literally one hand as it has other levers on each side as well that you just push in and the top levers release the phone automatically. Very easy to charge your phone with a car charger while in place in the holder. We love this holder, recommend highly.

The holder itself is absolutely fantastic. I wish there was just a *slight* more freedom of movement, but I have no complaints. Def recommend for both the product and customer service!

With all the available car mounts on Amazon, how do you pick one? I needed an arm that extended 4-5 inches from the windshield or dashboard. I picked this one because it has an arm that extends and articulates a few ways. I initially tried it on the windshield, where it worked well, just not in a location that was easy to see. I thought maybe it would work for me better on the dashboard, but was reluctant because I never though it would adhere to the pebbled, curved plastic dash. When I tried to remove it from the windshield it would not budge. I went back to the instructions to make sure I was removing it properly, then continued to pry it off the glass. It mounted to the dashboard material just fine and it has not budged in more than a month since I installed it. I have the arm extending nearly the entire distance, maybe 4 inches, Amazing!

I really can't stand it when I have loose stuff shifting and sliding around inside my vehicle when I'm going down the road. It's annoying and distracting - kind of unsafe. I also hate rattles. I used to set my cell phone in the console, but it wasn't really secure. Whenever I needed to plug in a charging cable, the phone might shift when I hit a bump, knocking the charging cable loose. Again, this was annoying and distracted my attention from the road. The iOttie mount solves the problem like a champ! It holds my phone securely with zero vibration. Even over railroad tracks. My 2011 Tacoma does not have bluetooth so I use a USB-C to Aux cable plugged in at all times when on the road. Works fantastically. I use it mounted to the windshield because I didn't want to run the risk of marring the dash. I wondered if this would obstruct my vision at all behind the wheel. It does not obstruct the view in a bothersome way. I have it left of center, low on the windshield and extended the way toward me. From the driver's seat I don't even see the mount; it's hidden behind my phone. Of course, it's in the perfect position for a quick glance at my GPS app. The glass mount is super easy and rock solid. Applying the gooey suction cup then clamping down the lever is oddly satisfying! I also love the quick mount and quick release feature. Finally, I have a Pixel 2 with a fingerprint sensor on the back. The design of the mount allows me to reach around behind the phone with my finger and easily unlock the phone while keeping my eyes on the road. It's $20 well spent.

I didn't want a magnet and searched for a while to find the 'right' dashboard mount. Everyone who gets in my car mentions it. It is sturdy and easy to use with one hand (I have small hands). I like that I can put anyone's phone in the mount so if something else directions, I can just pop their phone in so I can see it. It swivels and sits nicely. I have it on backwards and stretched out because I have t-rex arms. I didn't use the sticky thing that came for dashboard mounting. It is on my dashboard but just using the suction cup as if it were on the window.

I bought this product because I recently bought my first car and frequently need to use the GPS on my phone, but I didn’t have a place to put my phone where I could easily see it while driving. I wanted something sleek that would look nice and match my car’s black and light beige interior while still being practical and inexpensive. Based on the reviews for this product, I purchased it. It was easy to install. I like how easy it is to put my phone on it; I have an iPhone 6 with a semi clunky case and it fits perfectly. I love that I can rotate and swivel the phone to point in all different directions and even switch to landscape mode. It holds onto the phone well and the phone has never fallen out of it. I like that there is room for a charger to stick out of it for when I’m charging while driving - that’s handy. All in all, I’m glad I bought this. It’s the perfect home for my phone in the car and I would highly recommend it.

I have this mounted in my 1998 Jeep Wrangler which is a very bumpy ride. At first I had this mounted to my dash board off to the left side of the steering wheel so it didn't block any of my visuals. But after about a month, the pad that stick to the dash ended up coming off. So I tried sticking it to the glass, and has worked faaaaar better. I'm not sure I'm ever going to be able to get it off. Not with at least a solid 30 minutes of trying I'm sure. It handles the ruggedness of the Jeep very well even when offroading. My phone has never fallen out. Having g the ability to pop my phone in with on hand is amazing and surprisingly secure.

I spent a great deal of time looking for the perfect dashboard and windshield phone mount. After using this for several weeks, I would highly recommend this product. Easy to install (I did not use the sticky pad in fear it would damage my dashboard) - instead, I relied on the suction cup alone. Initially, I was worried that it would not hold, as my phone is quite heavy (Samsung Galaxy S9+ with OtterBox Commuter case). Boy, was I surprised! It really held - although, I should note that I was sure to clean my dash before installing (instructions are provided). The mount itself is sturdy, easy to rotate/adjust and great for travel. To recapitulate, I would highly recommend this product!

I researched a lot before buying this car mount. I have been using it for quite awhile now, and I have no complaints.
