Save your money! Not functional/bad design!

Great concept, bad design. ☹️ I'm sending it back. Don't waste your $$. It won't hold your phone unless it's very thin and has a protective case. I photographed the head/PH holder part from all angles to show the good and the bad. The red part is the charging cable holder, which works well. The problem lies in the gray rubber buttons. Pros: You can rotate them wide or narrow. Cons: Overall length is only about an inch. Nuts are installed from above, going through the frame. As soon as you put your phone in, they flex completely and slide out, causing your phone to fall out. See Fig. #6 and #7. Where the screws had a flat or domed end (e.g. a carriage bolt) they were reversed (flat end over the rubber part) with the screw going all the way through the rubber grips and the Nuts they held on the back of the frame heads, this will probably work. This provides strength and they stay in place. It can also be constructed so that the bolt is cast into the rubber mounts and then the nuts that they bolt into are recessed into the back of the frame. It can be designed in any of these ways and still pivot for adjustable positioning. The length of the screws/rubber bumpers should also be at least ¼ inch longer to hold most phones or tablets with a protective case. . Then this could be a great holder.
