    This magnetic phone mount by Scosche is the last mount that you will ever need! I've tried multiple options and this is the best solution by far. It's a simple peel / stick install for the mount and the sleek metal plate that attaches to the back of your phone (or phone case). I personally have one in my truck and 2 in my work vehicle. Everybody that sees it thinks it's such a cool design and asks about it!

    After a while, it WILL lose its adhesive. You'll notice your phone start to slant slightly downwards before ultimately just falling off altogether. I'm considering literally just drilling two small screws to hold it in place indefinitely but not sure if it will damage my stereo and/or air vent system. I'm clueless about these things but if you have an idea let me know. It's for a '13 corolla

      @WesleyAllenNC  Před 11 měsíci

      We don't get that hot over here, Hi temps are low 90's high 80's. But I've been using that same mount now for over 3 years. We even bought a bunch for our fleet vehicles at work and have had really good success with them as a whole. Hell I even put one on my riding lawn mower, lol.. But for its small size and simplicity, you can't go wrong.

    • @WesleyAllenNC

      There should be a tightening/loosening ring that lets the mount snap into or out of the base. Lefty loosy, righty righty.. maybe this helps?

    It looks like it’s plenty strong enough to hold up a large phone. Do you have any issues with wireless charging if you use the small metal mounting plate?

    • @WesleyAllenNC
      @WesleyAllenNC  Před 2 lety +1

      It says your not supposed to have issues with the smaller mount, I never tried it. I went straight to the larger mount for whatever reason. I guess cause I never really use the Q1 charging option. The instructions show you how to mount the smaller plate and claims charging will be unaffected.

      The plate on the phone is just metal. The magnet is in the mount. I had my plate secured directly to my iPhone for a long time, then decided to remove it and place it outside my case. I took a small push-pin to it and it popped right off, clean too.. I would suggest putting it outside your case when you can..

    The lil plate sticks the magnet mount but falls off the back my phone.

    • @WesleyAllenNC
      @WesleyAllenNC  Před 2 lety

      I had my plate stuck straight to the back of my iPhone for a long time with no problem. Eventually I popped it off (it came off surprisingly clean) and then put it on the outside of my smooth plastic case with no problems. Except I might have had a new plate then.. as long as the surface is clean and smooth it should hang on with no problems..
