Tiltpod Keychain stand for iPhone 4/4S, mini pivoting tripod

This is useless for me but I should have noticed before I ordered. How many people walk around without a case for their iPhone? In order to use this product you have to remove your iPhone from it's case and that is totally impractical. However if this doesn't bother you, then it is really a handy item. Plus the sellers are eager to help you if you're not satisfied.

This little clip is ready to go with you wherever you may be! We haven't used it too often but it is there and ready for us when we do! It holds the phone up nicely and is really easy to use. You will have to remove your case to make it fit which is OK since we will be using this mainly at home. It easy to adjust since the whole thing is magnet based and if we put it on a key chain I don't see it causing a problem with other residents of said chain.

Wish this tripod would adjust a little wider to fit over my Body Glove case. It's a snug fit already for a bare iPhone. I like the simple design and the keychain is handy. Super strong magnet will hold whatever position selected. Will be giving this away since I can't use it with a case on.

Great little gizmo. For serious photography (like time lapses etc), you want a real tripod, but this thing is much smaller and lighter so you can carry it in your purse for selfies and group shots. However, this one is for the iPhone 4, and the one for the iPhone 5 is only being sold at a more expensive price and with a case that comes with it. So this review is mainly to point out that you can totally use this one with the iPhone 5, with a tiny bit of adapting. The only real difference is that the slot for the iPhone 4 is thicker than the one for the iPhone 5.First, when I wasn't using a case on my phone, I just put a couple layers of duct tape on the sides of this slot, so that it fit my iPhone 5 and gripped it well.Now, I am using the Olloclip Quick Flip Case, and I removed the duct tape and found that its just the right thickness with the case. I guess the iPhone 5 with this case is about the thickness of an iPhone 4 without a case.

I bought this tripod for an Iphone 4S. The problem is that the phone doesn't fit into the slot of the tripod with the hard plastic case installed on my Iphone. Taking off the case is such a pain that I decided that I am going to return the tripod and get one that works with a protective case. I'm surprised they didn't make the slot adjustable so it can accomodate either a plastic or rubberized case as I believe most people use cases to protect their large investment in an Iphone. Also, buyers beware that this design uses a fairly powerful magnet and putting this in you pocket or purse next to your credit cards will likely erase the magnetic strips on your credit cards! Other than that, it looks like a good quality, low profile stand that is very compact enabling one to actually be in some of the group pictures they take with their Iphone (providng they download the camera timer app).

I dig this one. I ordered the Tiltpod and the Glif at the same time. The Tiltpod has gotten a lot more usage. It's easily pocketable and I don't need a tripod (which, while useful, can look a bit silly in urban areas). The bottom is surprisingly grippy and the magnet not only works on the iPhone holder, but through the bottom of the Tiltpod as well. I got a cheap Ikea kitchen timer and was using it to do some rotational timelapse on my iPhone. The timer was metal, so the Tiltpod stuck to it - nice surprise.This does require that your iPhone be "naked", so if you love your ridiculously oversize Otterbox or have a case that is difficult to remove your phone from, you may want to consider that. Hell, the Glif is out for you as well. But if you have a "mega case" you can fashion your own tripod-type adapter and not worry about crunching your phone.For me, this is convenient, goes everywhere with me, and is a well-made iPhone holder. I'd definitely recommend it... you know, until I upgrade to a 5s, and then I'll be getting the compatible Tiltpod for that one.

A nice product but if you have a case for your iPhone, which most people do, it does not fit. So it's a bit of a pain to have to take off the case.

sadly it was a gift that goes unused. recipient likes to keep keys in pocket but said this gave too much bulk
