Beam Electronics Universal Smartphone Car Air Vent Mount Holder Cradle for iPhone XS XS Max X 8 8 Plus 7 7 Plus SE 6s 6 Plus 6 5s 5 4s 4 Samsung Galaxy S6 S5 S4 LG Nexus Sony Nokia and More… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073R68TSH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_NUiWCbWVSZ608
I drive a 2014 Honda Civic and love this phone mount holder. I have an iPhone 7 and been using this phone mount holder for over a year now and it still works like new. Super sturdy, extremely secured and rigid, and has a quick release button. All the reviews on amazon speak for themselves. My girlfriend recently stole this phone mount holder from me so I had to buy another one haha
I've tried a few different mounts and have to say i absolutely love this one from amazon. Clips to the air vents. I keep it just to the right of my steering wheel (US). It's one of the cheapest mounts on the market i think and it stays very firm and keeps my phone very secure, which is saying a lot because i'm a delivery driver and spend many hours a day driving my fist like a fist is supposed to be driven
16 with sync 3 should require a USB slot upgrade for Carplay, but not for AA (I had/have both). I've got the same truck (we're F150-twins!).
Those fingers make me a bit twichy, ngl. I like the multi-part print do you can orient the layers for the best performance. I printed a cup holder mount and epoxied in a USB-C for drop-in convenience but has to abandon it when I defected to Apple last year and I was to busy to print and mold a lightning version.
Not to take anything away from printing, but this holder is absolutely incredible. Easily holds a big phone + case, never sags. Back up plan, just in case.
I actually rented that one I think, its the cheapest automatic one they have right?
I was able to use a vent cell phone stand, but it would only fit on the left side (so near the door).
To be specific, since its in my amazon history, I used this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073R68TSH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Which lol they are offering an 80% coupon code? I just got another one for $3...
In a 2013 Forester I use a junky little vent mount that actually works better than the more fancy ones I’ve tried: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073R68TSH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_dlC_1hOZFbKNM4H0R
But a little more worried about vent damage now that my new iPhone (11) is way heavier than my old one (6s) so also looking for other mount suggestions.
Nice! I’m getting the same one. I probably won’t get another vent holder, because it either blocks the cool air or the heat will overheat my iPhone. But this vent holder on Amazon seems to be very popular
I have a vent mount, have used it for over two years in my '18 Passat. Has never fallen or anything, and this is while driving on dirt roads in Vermont. Right now you can get it on Amazon for $10. Almost 32k reviews, it really is the best vent mount I have ever owned.
I personally don't like to use magnets and have tried a bunch of different designs.
I settled on this vent clip several months ago and it works perfectly on my 3XL...and for around 15 bucks...
I got that and was leery of a vent mount, but now I love it. I put it on the driver side center vent on the lowest most slot. Being on the bottom it fits in such a way that the vents can't move downward and bounce around. Its solid and exactly where I want the phone. Easy to see without looking down much but doesnt block the windshield at all.
The holder itself is really nice quality. The action of the arms releasing the phone is super smooth. Every few weeks it gets slightly loose and I just unclamp and reclamp it and it's good to go.
Not sure how I'll feel in the summer when the AC is on

I’ve been using this for almost a year and it works perfectly for my 2017 Civic. There’s a quick release button on the back too
I ordered this hands-free mount from Amazon and it's a good one. Thanks to voice recognition I can say "Hey Google, load the TDOT Smartway webserver" and it'll pop up. And with Bluetooth, I can take calls over my car's stereo system instead of using my hands. If you have an older car without Bluetooth, you can add it for $18 with this adapter. I have one in my older Subaru, and it's good to go there. It has a surprisingly good microphone built-in, as well as a quick charger.
I got this one from Amazon, and it works pretty well on the left-center vent.

My wife uses a stand that latches onto the a/c vent fins. She seems content with it... although about every 3 or 4 months it seems to loosen a bit and she will 'reset' it.
I have one for mine! It just BARELY fits, but it does fit.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073R68TSH
it has 2 lock settings "I" and "II" - the "I" is the less pressure one and it just BARELY squeezes on there. So it will take a bit of pushing to get it on initially, but it works great. rock solid for me so far.
I've been using this one almost daily for 3 years without any problems
I use this one:

Once in a while I have to reseat it but I find it works great.
well for me i use this or i just use apple carplay
I use this one:

It clamps to the vent fins. I have to re-clamp it every few weeks, no big deal.
How about the basic car mounts that squeeze your phone until it secures it? There's a bunch on Amazon that are decently priced such as this one.

If you are gonna have to show up anyway, why not get a car phone holder and see if they'll drop the ticket. $15 at amazon with prime one day shipping?

I've had the magnetic ones but my phone's too heavy so I switched over to this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073R68TSH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_-3yoFb11Y43ZS - no issues with my vents, but clip on the bottom of the vent so the base is supported.
This one has been solid for me, bought one for my dad too.

I've got the same phone and same case, this is the one I use, cheap, works well, highly recommend if you have the suitable air vents.

I think this vent one would be your best bet. I've been using it in my G6 and it's been great https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073R68TSH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6VgDDbWVTKGXY
To clarify I mean the accessory to put onto the dashboard to hold you phone. Something like this

I use that for my iphone 7 on my civic hatch. Works really well and has a quick release button for you to remove your phone.
