Phone holder recommendations

Post by MilgeS »

My phone software version is currently experiencing problems with Android Auto so until Google sorts the issues out I'm looking for either a vent or dash mount (not windscreen)

Does everyone just use Android Auto on here or can you give me a few ideas for holders please. Thank you

What are your AA issues? Updating to Android 11 slightly broke AA for me- it now has to be unlocked to connect to AA, whereas previously I'd just plug it in.

I have a Galaxy S21 Ultra, it won't get a GPS fix or accept any voice commands, just gives me "Sorry, there been a problem", there's a long thread here on Google Support about this https://support.google.com/androidauto/ ... 3396?hl=en

I was hoping it would get fixed soon as I need it for work but I might need to use my phone on a holder as a temporary measure

There's only one brand I'd ever use for a phone, BRODIT.

They do various mounts for the AW Polo

Thank you, I will look at those later, not come across Brodit before.
