How to choose a car phone mount

1. Pick the mounting spot.

  • Air vent: clips onto a vent slat. Simple, cheap and easy to move between cars, like the Fuse and iJoy vent clips.
  • Dashboard or windshield: a suction or adhesive base puts the phone at eye level for navigation. The HyperGear universal mount handles vent, dash and windshield.
  • Cup holder: expands to fit the cup holder, with no suction or clips. Ideal for cars with round vents or textured dashes.
  • Headrest: Klipxtreme headrest mounts hold a phone or tablet up to 14 in for back-seat passengers, with 360-degree rotation.

2. Check the grip. Adjustable grips fit most phones, including in a case. A one-touch release button makes it easy to take the phone out.

3. Keep it out of your sightline. Mount the phone low on the windshield or on the dash so it doesn't block your view of the road.

Car mount FAQ

Will a vent mount damage my car's vents?

Not if it's attached gently to a sturdy horizontal slat. Avoid heavy phones on thin or round vents, and use a dash or cup-holder mount instead.

Is it legal to use a phone mount while driving in Canada?

Most provinces allow a securely mounted phone for hands-free use, such as navigation, as long as you don't hold or type on it. Check your province's distracted-driving rules.

Can a car mount hold an iPad?

Vent clips are made for phones. For tablets, use a headrest mount rated for your tablet's size.
