Every Thursday I do a FaceTime call with my business partner to The Blog Societies, Cathy. It’s our time to get some work done face to face. We often do this in person but doesn’t happen every week. However, FaceTime makes it feel more official than a phone call. And every week I lean my stupid iPhone up against my computer. It’s annoying, it falls down and it’s never a great angle. I finally invested just $20 in the PopSocket PopMount 2 Flex and I’m obsessed.
I’m a PopSocket user and have been for years. I still have my La Croix PopSocket on my phone from our #TBScon over 2 years ago. Personally, I feel like it’s a superior phone holding thingy. Do they have an official name? Some people like a loopy thing, I’ve seen other weird ones. But to me the PopSocket is hands down the best.
I even have the car mount which is great. But my day to day life at home really needed something to hold my phone up. Whether I’m FaceTiming a friend while making dinner, or even just needing to do some IG Stories, this thing is game changer.
Not only does it hold your phone up nicely like a little stand, but the legs are moldable! You can wrap it around things so you can get the exact angle you need. Perfect for selfies, recording a how-to video for IGTV – or TikTok if that’s you’re thing – really anything. I even like using it when I’m cooking to have the recipe up so I’m not constantly having to pick up the phone. It’s just overall much easier to use!
In order to use the PopMount 2 Flex, you do need a PopSocket on your phone or it won’t work. I’ve always loved having this on the back of my phone making it much easier to use. Plus, it has helped with my carpal tunnel too big time.
If you haven’t picked up this $20 gadget, do it now and thank me later. It’s game changer!
