I should have clarified- he had two because he has a work phone (iPhone 6) and his personal phone (6+) and he keeps them in the vents to the left and right of the steering wheel. Even having two cents more or less blocked, he said the hot/cold air flow has never been a problem.

+Kim Richards well be aware of your gps and battery life, they can be effected.

Judith Kamins I just installed this on my Sonata today. It's a little tricky but just turn the magnet portion until there is a crevice that ends up being vertical all the way through. Then push it onto your vent.

The vent really isn't that big of a deal.... I have had clients have one of these in each vent on either side of the steering wheel and it doesn't bother them a bit. And if you're annoyed with one tiny cord being attached to the phone that blocks the audio/climate buttons..... It seems like you wouldn't be happy with any mounting system on the market. How can one cord block all the buttons that makes no sense! I have my phone on the charger about 50% of the time I'm in the car and it's never in my way. I just use the audio controls on my steering wheel like a normal person 😆😆

It is a big deal actually. The vent is supposed to cool me down in the summer. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry. (^: Cell phone mount would block the vent in my car. I use a charge cord that goes into the cig lighter. Then I place the phone into my 2nd cup holder. My phone is still loud enough to hear the nav directions and I never answer the phone while driving because that's how people crash their cars a lot. Some people open windows and never use the vent, that's cool. Some people have buttons on their steering wheel, that's fine for them. I never said the cord "blocks all the buttons" so no idea why you said that. A cord on my dash would block 4 buttons of the 10 and the buttons were designed to use by feel so you can keep your eyes on the road. If I have to look down and move a cord from the button I want, then it's a safety issue.

I think, all vents are not created equal. Mine, I had to sort of squeeze it on there, and it fits snugly. But I'm afraid some vents may not be so accommodating. However, best tip I can give to keep the PHONE on MAGNET is to install the sticker permanently affixed to your phone. I used the put-the-magnet-inside-case method first, and the phone slid off and hit the floor like you described.

Yes that's the answer if it doesn't hold onto the magnet mount the problem is it doesn't stay in the vent when you pull off the phone, there's another type that's better that stays in the vent by the same manufacturer.

+Jesse Reich Hi Jesse, For that issue, we would recommend adjusting the location of the metal plate. Some phones actually work without the metal plates if they have metal inside of them. Perhaps give that a shot? Thanks!

+Jesse Reich Wireless charging works by induction - a rapid changing of a magnetic field. A magnetic plate acts as an faraday cage, perfect blockage of induction charging.

+Jeremy B Thanks Jeremy but I didn't ask why. The plate doesn't act as a faraday cage at all since it isn't a cage and we're talking about magnetic fields not electromagnetic fields. If it were a faraday cage the cell phone signal would be greatly affected.

+Jeremy B Oh and the plate is metal, not magnetic. The magnet is the part you attach to your vent.

Sorry, my mistake, not a complete Faraday cage, just a induction shield. The metal plate acts as shield for the electric field produced by induction charging. The signal is not affected because the RF waves travel around the metal plate.

cupofrice We're sorry that this happened to you. There are warnings on the instruction manual, and on this video. I will forward your thought to our design team, and perhaps we can help in the prevention of this error for future users.

TechMatte Inc. This video was sent to me after I received my product and I can't imagine anyone reading the instruction manual for a simple device.

cupofrice Understood. I have passed your suggestion on to our design team.

***** Okay

TechMatte Inc. please, not everyone watches the video before they buy them get real.

The product actually comes with two magnets for your device- a large rectangle and a pretty good sized circle. I think it's worth a shot, it could very well work as the magnet mount is VERY strong. If you read my above comment I just posted actually, a client of mine with an iPhone 6+ uses both magnets and it works perfectly. For the very low price, it's definitely worth a shot to see if your tablet would work, only being 3 inches bigger than the 6+. And if it doesn't work, you could always use it for a phone, pass it along to a friend or family member, or of course return it! Best of luck!

+ytesr Perhaps your case is too thick? Which phone do you have?

+TechMatte Inc. iPhone 5

+ytesr That sound like there might be a defective product. Please email support@techmatte.com for more help!

I have the thinnest case and it fits perfectly, can never even tell it's there. But since my case is clear, and it don't like that you can see it, I do take the magnet out sometimes and just leave it on the mount. If I didn't have a clear case, I would never take it out!

***** Most cars have the ability to turn individual vents on/off with a slider/dial.

R Bothell My middle vent doesn't close unfortunately :( I have a 2014 Honda Civic Thanks for answering tho!

Mine vent in the middle doesn't :(

***** Unfortunately, this is one of the caveats of this car mount. It is a great position for your phone, but one vent will be blocked while it is in use. We also have a CD mount, and a Dashboard mount that use the same magnetic concept. Perhaps you can use one of those during the extreme weather months? www.amazon.com/TechMatte-Magnetic-Universal-Eco-Friendly-Packaging/dp/B00V54LQO4/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1435086582&sr=8-6&keywords=cd+car+mount www.amazon.com/TechMatte-Windshield-Dashboard-Universal-Eco-Friendly/dp/B00Q7TOW5W/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1435086601&sr=8-3&keywords=car+mount+maggrip I hope this helps!

+Daniel Kirkman From our tests, it is impossible to remove the sticker. The best advice I can offer is to try to pry it off with a stiff piece of metal. I apologize for the inconvenience.

+Daniel Kirkman It may be too late, but if you've manage a small gap on one of the corners you could try braided fishing line and wrapped between two stiff rods such as a fat sharpie marker and pull either end alternating until you've essentially garrotted it off. Copious amounts of rubbing alcohol could help as well? Good luck!
