These 5 cell phone mounts are perfect for people on the go

By Kiera Baron

Traveling and staying active are some of the most fun people can have. Whether by bike or by car, getting out and seeing the world is an every-day activity we can all agree helps boost happiness. But where can you put your phone? It can feel limiting when your only option is the cup holder or your pocket, especially when you need to navigate somewhere new. That’s where phone mounts come in. They can help keep your phone in a visible spot while letting you focus on the road ahead and navigate or listen to music hands-free. These five mounts are perfect for drivers, bikers, and cyclists—and make perfect gifts for someone who so desperately needs it!

Hussell’s magnetic phone mount fits seamlessly into your dashboard air vent. Since it’s magnetic, it doesn’t require much fidgeting to get the phone on properly. It comes with four strong magnets that adhere to the back of your phone case, so you can do this with more than one case, more than one device, or more than one phone if you want to share the mount with your family! Best of all, since it slides into the air vent, it can easily be moved from car to car without any hassle or sticky residue left behind.

This universal car mount also fits into the air vent, but doesn’t require you to stick anything on the back of your phone in order for it to work. It has two sides and a bottom for your phone to rest in, and you can easily slide it down in from the top. Best of all, it isn’t restricted by phone! Whether you’ve got one of the many kinds of Androids or an iPhone, yours will fit nice and snug without any worry. It’s an especially great car mount for families who have multiple kinds of phones.

TechOrbits’ bike and motorcycle phone mount is perfect for cyclists and bikers alike—because you shouldn’t have to sacrifice any kind of navigation or music just because you aren’t in a car. It’s compatible with a variety of Apple and Samsung products, clipping snugly onto the handlebars. What’s nice about this phone mount, too, is that it’s a perfect gift for not only cyclists and bikers, but parents on-the-go! It fits nicely onto strollers and carts, too, so that hands are free to watch the little ones.

Bikeroo’s universal cell phone mount is a perfect gift for any avid cyclist. If you have someone in your life who struggles with finding the perfect spot to keep their phone while they’re biking, this will surely become their go-to option. It mounts to the handle bars, working with most common phone types from Apple to Samsung, and is built from heavy duty materials to make sure the phone stays nice and sturdy no matter the speed.

Mongoora makes a study magnetic car phone mount that clips into the air vent and actually rotates! Sometimes it can be frustrating having to keep your phone horizontal when the navigation you use may work better in landscape view. It can easily be moved from car to car, and makes a great gift for friends and family who still need a better place to keep their phone than in their hands while they drive. Simply stick the magnet onto the back of the case, put the phone on the mount, and go!

Although they seem very simple, a good car mount is actually hard to find. Everyone has their own preferences, and some people give up entirely because they can’t find the right fit. If you know someone in your life who struggles to find a place for their phone when they bike or drive, especially on long trips, then why not gift them a phone mount? They’re great for stocking stuffers, for small birthday presents, or even just because.
